Exploring the Security Risks of Google Gemini: A New Vulnerability Uncovered
Recent research by Miggo Security has exposed a critical vulnerability in Google Gemini, the AI assistant integrated into Google Workspace. By exploiting natural language instructions, attackers can bypass security measures and leak sensitive Calendar data.
Key Highlights:
- Attack Mechanism: Sending a seemingly harmless calendar invite with malicious payloads.
- Data Exfiltration: Victims unknowingly trigger the attack by querying Gemini about their schedules.
- Impacted Information: The attack can lead to sensitive meeting summaries being exposed to unauthorized participants.
Miggo’s findings stress the importance of evolving security protocols to respond to the complexities of AI interactions. While Google has implemented additional defenses—including user confirmations for event creation—this incident showcases the ongoing challenges in AI security.
