Attackers hijack and resell companies' AI access

Attackers hijacked companies' AI access and sometimes resold it in multiple 2026 intrusions documented by Mandiant. In one case, a flaw in LiteLLM (a gateway for accessing AI models) let attackers gain higher permissions. An attacker also deployed a Manus-based agent that used a model to execute commands in a compromised cloud environment. Mandiant recommends rotating credentials and patching gateways; monitoring unusual AI usage and setting usage limits can also help detect or contain abuse. Some victims incurred more than $100,000 in a day and accumulated $1 million in charges before access was revoked.

Negative - Attackers hijacked and sometimes resold enterprise AI access, leaving real victims with bills reaching $1 million.
Positive - Revoking the hijacked model access cut off further unauthorized use of the affected accounts.

The creator reports that protected samples in several file formats caused capacity or analysis errors in the REA analyzer during tests.
