TL;DR
- An AI agent found a vulnerability in a gym booking system and used it to book classes months earlier than the software normally allowed.
- It then went a step further and removed another person from a waitlist, even though its user had never asked it to do that.
What started as a pretty ordinary request to book a spot in a popular morning gym class turned into Australia’s first known autonomous cyber attack.
