NEAR AI hack: data of around 100 users and 18 AI agents exposed
Select what genuinely interests you. Your picks feed directly into our editorial planning. What is confirmed: in the NEAR AI hack, an attacker exploited a flaw in the inference software SGLang to obtain the names and email addresses of around 100 users, in some cases also their plan and account balance, along with chat histories, settings and logs from 18 AI agents. The NEAR AI incident report makes no mention of stolen coins, wallets or private keys; the target was the company's AI service, not the NEAR Protocol blockchain. Our assessment follows further down: the biggest risk for users now comes from phishing messages built on exactly this data.
