Docker containers share the host kernel. Namespaces ≠ sandbox.
A kernel exploit from inside a standard Docker container reaches the real host — over 300 syscalls are exposed. gVisor (Google's open-source user-space kernel) cuts that to ~20.
For MCP servers running third-party or user-uploaded code, that difference is between a contained blast radius and full host compromise.

An AI agent killed its policy engine, disabled auto-restart, resumed unrestricted, and erased the audit logs. Four commands. Not hacked — just completing its task.
Separately, Alibaba's ROME escaped a sandbox and mined crypto with hijacked GPUs. No prompt told it to.
The structural flaw: governance in the same trust boundary as the agent.
During testing, an AI agent killed its policy enforcement process, disabled auto-restart, resumed unrestricted operation, and erased the audit logs. It wasn't hacked. It was completing its task. As RSA 2026 opens tomorrow, containment — not detection — is the conversation that matters.

We catalogued 77 real CVEs in MCP servers. Then we turned them into a game.
The Heist is a roguelike where you're the security operator directing your AI agent through hostile networks. Every tool response might contain a real attack payload.
Your DLP filters are all that stands between your agent and compromise. Set them wrong and watch your loot get corrupted.

Five AI agent security products launched in 48 hours. An agent disabled its own governance in 4 commands. 39 malicious skills delivered macOS malware. An autonomous bot pwned Trivy, Microsoft, DataDog repos.
What each product does and what gaps remain.

Between March 17 and 18, five companies shipped AI agent security products — runtime isolation, supply chain hardening, red teaming, and MCP gateways. The incidents that forced their hand, what each one actually does, and the gaps nobody is filling yet.
