There’s a problem with multi-agent AI systems that doesn’t show up until you run them in the wild, and a new research paper from Northeastern University has done the work of naming it precisely. The paper, “Agents of Chaos,” led by researcher Natalie Shapira, makes a claim that anyone who’s run multi-agent pipelines in production will recognize: the failure modes of two agents interacting are not the sum of their individual failures. They’re something qualitatively different and qualitatively worse. ...

Indirect Prompt Injection (IDPI) is now confirmed in-the-wild by Palo Alto Unit 42. Adversaries are embedding hidden instructions in web pages and documents to hijack AI agents — and OpenClaw’s browser and research agents are high-value targets. This guide walks through concrete hardening steps you can apply to your OpenClaw deployments today. Prerequisites OpenClaw installed and configured (any recent version) At least one agent with web browsing or document processing capability Basic familiarity with OpenClaw’s skill and session configuration Step 1: Audit Your Agent Attack Surface Before hardening anything, map your exposure. For each agent you run: ...
