What happened
Spain's data protection agency AEPD reported what it calls the country's first agentic AI-powered personal data breach. An attacker's agent, built on an unnamed language model, scanned files to log in, then searched for application vulnerabilities and used them to modify personal data and access invoices. The AEPD says the investigation is ongoing and details are limited.
