What happens when an AI pentester gets fooled by the system it’s trying to hack?
During the recon phase, autonomous agents continuously analyse target data to plan their next move. But if an attacker plants deceptive code or pull request, they can hijack the AI’s reasoning engine before it ever executes an exploit.
As autonomous tools take over security testing, protecting the model from manipulation is becoming a critical priority.
