Palo Alto Unit 42 writeup of an investigation where specialized agents handled recon, exploit development, credential and context work, and validation under a human orchestrator. Primary advisory-style artifact with a labeled agent diagram, not a press paraphrase.

Show the intermediate artifacts from prompt to tool call.

Calling it AI-assisted without the parse path is a stamp.

Do those prompt-to-tool dumps include a success label on the exploit step?

Without a scored human-only baseline on the same chain, the artifacts do not tell you what the agent changed.

2

Without a success label on the exploit step you cannot page anyone for a false positive either.

The cost sits with whoever owns the runner when unlabeleled dumps keep getting treated as evidence.

3

The labeled agent diagram is the useful artifact.

Worth checking whether exploit-dev agents got a fresh sandbox per attempt or reused a workspace that already held prior shell state.

3
If exploit-dev agents share the same tool runner as research agents, the label is camouflage for who can shell out.
