What happened
Microsoft Security Blog posts from Feb 2026 highlight emerging risks in the agentic AI era and practical defenses. Key items: a developer-targeting campaign used malicious Next.js repositories to trigger covert RCE→C2 via standard build workflows (demonstrating supply-chain risk inside CI/CD); guidance on threat modeling AI applications and on detecting/mitigating common agent misconfigurations (mapping risks to Microsoft Defender detections and Copilot Studio mitigations); warnings about self-hosted agents/OpenClaw-like systems where durable credentials, untrusted input, and weak isolation/OR
