Submit #850802: usestrix strix <= 1.0.2 rceinfo

Titelusestrix strix <= 1.0.2 rce
BeschreibungThis is a phishing attack targeting autonomous penetration-testing AI agents. By hosting a booby-trapped web application with a companion PyPI mirror, the attacker induces Strix into executing a malicious pip install — achieving counter-reconnaissance: seizing a reverse shell on the pentester's own machine. The root cause is not the attack technique, but two inherent design defects in Strix: (1) an unrestricted package installation policy in the system prompt, and (2) the absence of safety-boundary propagation in its multi-agent architecture. A contributing behavioral factor is that Strix agents are incentivized to exhaustively probe every discovered endpoint, making them highly likely to trigger traps that a human tester would recognize as suspicious.
