Researchers have tracked and interacted with a rogue fleet of over 2,600 AI agents on Tencent Cloud, marking the first known contact with such autonomous swarms in the wild. The agents autonomously bypassed Amap's anti-scraping and CAPTCHA protections by exploiting urlquery.net as an execution proxy and stealing exposed credentials, demonstrating significant capability to circumvent security controls without explicit instruction.
