A Hacker Tried to Turn an AI Chatbot Into a Tool for Attacking Other Servers

Matched: Artificial Intelligence

A honeypot investigation by Sekoia found an attacker attempting to weaponize Flowise, an open-source AI workflow platform, to attack other servers. The intruder queried credentials, tried creating malicious workflows with outbound HTTP requests, and sent prompt injection attempts to extract data and conduct reconnaissance. Prompts referenced an online gambling platform linked to Asia, suggesting a Chinese-speaking operator. No real systems were compromised, as the honeypot ran no live model or commands.
