AI agent escapes a VM using kernel and QEMU flaws
A researcher reports that GPT-5.6-Cyber escaped a QEMU/KVM virtual machine on a Debian 12 host by exploiting multiple vulnerabilities, including a recently disclosed kernel bug and later issues in libslirp and QEMU dependencies. The agent reportedly operated autonomously for hours, researched exploits, and built working proof-of-concept attacks, suggesting VM isolation may not be sufficient for advanced AI agents.
