- “We Spent 20 Years Securing the Supply Chain. AI Agents Just Reset the Clock to Zero”
AI agents load third-party skills and MCP servers at runtime, inheriting the user's email, files, and system access, but the ecosystem shipped with none of the supply-chain controls open source spent 15 years building. No mandatory authentication, no cryptographic signing, no provenance verification, no publisher vetting. The killer data points: nine of eleven MCP marketplaces accepted unvetted proof-of-concept malware with zero review; a fake agent skill passed both Cisco's and NVIDIA's scanners and reached ~26,000 corporate agents; and OX Security found 10+ critical CVEs in Anthropic's own MCP SDKs affecting 200,000 servers.
