Evidence used

  • No CISA KEV confirmation is currently recorded.
  • EPSS is 0.18% for the current model date.

Compensating controls

  • Validate the affected product branch and deploy the verified fixed release.
  • Restrict local access and enforce least privilege on affected hosts.
  • Monitor vendor guidance and exploitation sources for a material change.

Verification

  1. Confirm that the asset runs AWS Kiro IDE and falls inside the recorded affected range.
  2. Verify the installed build against the product-specific fixed version after deployment.
  3. Validate exposure, authentication requirements and compensating controls in the actual environment.
  4. Reopen this reassessment when CVSS, KEV, EPSS, exploit evidence or remediation changes.
Mitigation target: As exposure requiresRemediation target: Within 365 days

This automated reassessment organises public evidence. It does not know asset exposure, business impact or control effectiveness and does not replace CVSS or a human risk decision.

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

Inclusion of functionality from an untrusted control sphere in the Kiro Powers feature in Amazon Kiro IDE before version 0.8.135 might allow remote unauthenticated actors to obtain sensitive information from a developer workstation. Crafted repository content can cause the agent to modify the workspace settings file, which redirects the Kiro Powers registry request to an actor controlled endpoint and sends workspace data to that endpoint when the Powers panel is opened. To remediate this issue, users should upgrade to Kiro IDE version 0.8.135 or later. Users who opened a project in an earlier version should also rotate any credentials that were present in that project.

Why

The product imports, requires, or includes executable functionality (such as a library) from a source that is outside of the intended control sphere.

How

An attacker operating through local access may attempt exploitation when the stated preconditions are met. If successful, the issue may obtain information outside the intended access boundary.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

CWE-829: Inclusion of Functionality from Untrusted Control Sphere. The product imports, requires, or includes executable functionality (such as a library) from a source that is outside of the intended control sphere.

Official advisory ↗
JVN iPedia · Japanese · JVNDB-2026-034144Amazon.com, Inc.のKiro IDEにおける複数の脆弱性

Amazon Kiro IDEのバージョン0.8.135以前のKiro Powers機能には、信頼されていない制御領域の機能が含まれているため、リモートの認証されていない攻撃者が開発者のワークステーションから機密情報を取得する可能性があります。細工されたリポジトリの内容によって、エージェントがワークスペース設定ファイルを変更し、Kiro Powersのレジストリ要求を攻撃者が管理するエンドポイントにリダイレクトします。その結果、Powersパネルを開いた際にワークスペースデータがそのエンドポイントに送信されてしまいます。この問題を解決するために、ユーザーはKiro IDEをバージョン0.8.135以降にアップグレードする必要があります。以前のバージョンでプロジェクトを開いたユーザーは、そのプロジェクト内に存在していた資格情報についてもすべて変更してください。
