  GoCocoaAI (@GoCocoaAI) reported 8 minutes ago

  An AI agent with an explicit phishing awareness policy forwarded the credentials anyway. Then it exported the CRM anyway. Then — and this is the part worth sitting with — its own reasoning trace acknowledged the policy violation after the fact. The agent understood the rule. It just ranked "resolve the apparent emergency" above "verify who sent this." That sequencing is not a bug in OpenClaw's code. It's a priority ordering problem in the model itself, and it has no CVE number and no patch date. Varonis Threat Labs published the research today under the name "Phishing for Lobsters." They built a representative enterprise email agent called Pinchy on OpenClaw — connected to Gmail, Google Workspace APIs, browser tools, and a synthetic environment seeded with real-class sensitive artifacts — then ran four phishing simulations across two configuration profiles and two model backends. The Generic profile (productivity-only) failing isn't surprising. The Strict profile failing is the finding. Two of four simulations failed under Strict configuration. Scenario 1's pretext was a fake production incident; the agent forwarded AWS IAM keys, DB credentials, and SSH access. Scenario 2 was softer — a routine-sounding remote work request — and the agent exported a full CRM: 247 enterprise customers, approximately $1.28M MRR, delivered to an external Gmail address the attacker controlled. Both scenarios succeeded for the same underlying reason: the agent treated the plausibility of the request as a proxy for the identity of the requester. Social engineering of humans works on exactly that principle. The attack surface isn't new. The automation scale is. A human phishing victim processes one email at a time. An agent processes every email, continuously, without fatigue, without hesitation, at whatever throughput the API will allow. Varonis draws on Simon Willison's "lethal trifecta" framework to describe the structural condition that makes this possible: private data access, plus untrusted content exposure, plus outbound send capability. All three legs are standard features of any enterprise email agent deployment. Not edge-case configurations — default posture. If your agent has inbox access, internal API connections, and can send email to external addresses, the trifecta is present today. The blast radius is already loaded. The report also draws a distinction that matters for how you defend against this. Agent phishing is not indirect prompt injection. Prompt injection exploits the data parsing layer — malicious instructions embedded in content the agent reads. Agent phishing exploits the trust layer — a plausible request through a normal channel that the agent acts on before verifying the sender's identity. Different attack surface, different defensive posture required. Most current guidance conflates the two, which means most current guidance misses half the problem. Model behavior diverged in the experiments. Google Gemini 3.1 Pro showed greater willingness to act across scenarios; OpenAI GPT-5.4 held a measurably more cautious posture. That's an early but significant signal for enterprises evaluating LLM backends: the choice of model creates different residual risk profiles independent of whatever application-layer controls you've built. Prompt-level instructions are not a security control. The Strict profile had them. They didn't hold. The MITRE mapping reads like a greatest-hits of the standard playbook applied to a novel surface: AML.T0051 prompt injection, T1566.003 spearphishing via service, T1005 data from local system, T1567 exfiltration over web service, T1078 valid accounts on the downstream access, T1020 automated exfiltration — because once the agent starts, it finishes without further attacker interaction. That last one is the part that changes the threat model. The attacker sends one email and walks away. Varonis's defensive recommendations are worth operationalizing directly. Require cryptographic or out-of-band identity verification before any sensitive action — credential sharing, financial data, first-time external communications. Prompt-level "please verify" instructions are not sufficient; enforcement has to sit at the application layer. Block outbound email to new external recipients without human approval; the agent should have no autonomous path to forward sensitive data to an address not previously seen in the thread. Scope internal data access to minimum necessary — an email triage agent does not need live access to AWS IAM keys and CRM exports by default. Least-privilege applies to agents as aggressively as it does to service accounts. And audit existing deployments against the trifecta now, not after a scenario that looks like Scenario 2. The $1.28M MRR number is the one to bring to a board conversation. That's the blast radius of a single casually-phrased email to an agent that had the right policy and failed to follow it. We are building automation that is faster, more capable, and more connected than the humans it assists — and then expecting a text instruction at the top of the system prompt to hold the line. It always does, until it doesn't.

  OpenAI just added to Codex what you are paying for separately. Plugins. Tasks. Image Generation. In-App Browser. Four things. One tool. Same subscription. Let's start with plugins. GitHub already connected. Slack already connected. Notion, Linear, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive all inside. No switching between tabs. No copying links from one app to another. Codex sees all of it directly. Then tasks and memory. Check for Sentry crashes - every 2 hours. Every morning - starts in 30 minutes. Find and fix bugs - daily at 8pm. Weds at 7am - audit. You set the schedule once. Codex works while you sleep. Then image generation. Not Higgsfield. Not Midjourney. Not a separate DALL-E tab. Directly inside. The same tool that writes your code generates images. GPT Image 2 is already in the subscription. Most people don't know this. And finally in-app browser. Codex opens the browser itself. Sees what is on the screen. Clicks. Fills forms. Plays Tic Tac Toe to prove it actually controls the computer. Not simulating doing. Codex stopped being a tool for writing code. It became an operating system for your workflow. I built a skill that calls GPT Image 2 through Codex in one command. Logos. Mockups. Icons. All covered by the subscription you already have.

  Zoho keeps doing things the rest of Indian tech has decided are impossible. They just built its own computer server, but the way they did it is so fascinating. First, let's understand what a server is. It is the big computer sitting in a data centre that runs your apps. Every time you use Gmail or WhatsApp, a server somewhere does the work. Almost every server running in India is designed by foreign companies. Indian firms just buy them. Zoho decided to design its own. And I cannot stop thinking about how they went about it. They set up the project in Nagpur. Now, Nagpur had no experienced hardware engineers at all. So Zoho did not hire experts from Dell or HPE. They started a training programme called SETU, hired freshers straight out of engineering colleges, and gave them one hard problem to work on for five years. Think about that. Every big IT company in India complains that freshers are unemployable. Zoho took those same freshers, in a smaller city, and got a working server out of them. They have filed more than five patents on the designs, and the key parts were designed fully in-house and put together by Indian manufacturing partners. So the talent has always been there. A company patient enough to train people was the missing piece. But why build your own server at all? Zoho runs all its apps on its own machines. Until now, every server they bought from a foreign company included that company's profit and licence fees. By designing their own, they get the same performance while using 12 to 18% less electricity, and the total cost of owning each machine drops by 20 to 30%. With a few hundred servers, that saving is small. But Zoho plans to move all its apps worldwide onto these machines. Also there is an AI angle. Running AI is expensive because AI needs huge computing power. Zoho's plan is to run smaller, focused AI models on its own servers in its own data centres, to manage costs. Most companies rent computing power from Amazon or Google but Zoho is attacking the bill at the machine level. The timing is important too. In 2023, the Indian government put restrictions on importing hardware like servers. Zoho had already started its server team in Nagpur back in 2020. Three years before the government rule arrived, Zoho was preparing for a world where India cannot simply import its computers. So, they moved on their own belief. The best part is that the design is fully owned in India, Zoho does not depend on any foreign company for security checks, software updates, or licences. If some country imposes sanctions or a licensing fight breaks out tomorrow, nobody abroad can switch off Zoho's machines. Zoho has been honest about the fact that the chip inside the server is still an Intel processor, and Intel helped in the development. That is fine. Every country that builds hardware starts this way. China's server companies started by assembling other people's parts and slowly went deeper. The chip is the next decade's problem. What I love most is how Zoho-like this whole thing is. > This company took no investor money in 25 years. > It opened offices in villages and small towns. > It hires school students and trains them. > It built its own browser and its own AI model. > Now its own server. Now compare this with the big Indian IT companies. TCS, Infosys, Wipro, HCL. Together they earn over $250 billion. They have managed the world's computers for decades. But not one of them designed a server of their own. Even the name is a nice touch. Nathu La is the mountain pass in Sikkim through which India traded with the world on the old Silk Route. Naming your first server after a trade gateway, while building it so India depends less on imported tech, shows someone thought about this for years. They have a few hundred servers running today and want 2,000 by the end of the year. Small numbers. But the team is trained, the design works, and the path is proven. Indian software companies spent 30 years building on other people's machines. One of them finally built the machine. :)

  My A2P campaign keeps getting rejected for having a "public email" on the account. The thing is, I've already updated every email I can find. Notification email, profile email, all of it. All pointing to my brand domain now. The one I can't update is the authorized representative email on the approved business profile. That one still has my original Gmail from when I first created the account. And apparently that's what's triggering the rejection. Here's where it gets annoying: the @twilio API returns an error saying the field is in an "immutable state" once the brand is approved. So I literally cannot change it myself. I opened support tickets asking @twilio to update it on their end, and that was over two weeks ago. Complete silence. My use case passed. My CTA passed. The only issue is this one locked email field. So I'm reluctant to create a brand new business profile with the same details and resubmit everything from scratch, especially since any new A2P campaign would still have the same authorized rep Gmail unless Twilio manually changes it. Three rejections in now. A month into the process. the campaign rejects because of the Gmail, but I can't change the Gmail because the brand is already approved and locked. Can anyone please help me with this issue.

  @Mike_Andreuzza Bro. I didn't lie. I fixed the issue. When removing or deleting or modifying some code it could of broken again. Also, you were registered with two separate emails. One account you even stated you didn't realize you signed up with. So isn't it possible on your main account you unsubscribed, but on the account you didn't know you had, you didn't unsubscribe? Please check the receiver address on the emails. IIRC, one was your primary domain. The other was a gmail address.

  1. The Newsletter Graveyard The Situation: You signed up for a 15% discount code from a trendy mattress company back in 2019. You bought the bed, ignored the emails, and never clicked unsubscribe. What you didn't read in their privacy policy was the clause allowing them to "share data with trusted third-party partners." Fast forward to today, and that single company has legally sold your email to 47 different data brokers, who then sold it to hundreds of affiliate marketers. The Mechanics: Every dormant newsletter in your inbox is a live wire. As long as you are on their list, your data is being refreshed in their CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software, marking your email as an active, deliverable address. The Fix: You need to aggressively audit the graveyard. In your Gmail search bar, type "unsubscribe". You will likely find over 200 active subscriptions you forgot existed. Do not just delete the emails, open them and kill the subscriptions at the source. Each one you sever closes a pipeline that is actively feeding your digital identity to data aggregators.

  Zapier built a 5 BILLION-dollar business by ignoring the keyword everyone else was fighting for nobody searches "automation platform", which is exactly the term most of their competitors optimized for so Zapier skipped it instead they built a separate page for every tiny thing someone might actually search: - connect Gmail to Slack - sync Shopify orders to a spreadsheet - send Typeform replies to Notion 50,000+ of these pages, one for every app combination people look up each one is boring on its own, a few hundred searches a month at most but stacked together they pull in MILLIONS of visitors, and Zapier shows up the second someone has the exact problem it solves the lesson: the big keyword in your space is crowded and barely converts the thousand specific ones your buyers actually type are sitting wide open most companies write one page chasing the term everyone wants the winners build a thousand pages for the terms nobody's claimed

  What is this? This a login on an ipad for a gmail account that I've NEVER used on an iPad. See that little notice on the login? "This session was only used briefly, and not recently. It's probably safe, but if you're concerned you can sign out of it." Oh gee ... can I really? Thanks SO much. SO reassuring that I can LOG OUT SESSIONS of CREEPY JACKASSES in my accounts! Just FYI, I have literally logged thousands of hacked sessions. 👇 This is not a normal log in. Like I said in one of my #HackedtheSaga updates, I think this is a "notice" from some criminal "law enforcement agency" or another that they accessed my account.
