NEAR AI

NEAR AI is an artificial intelligence project built on the NEAR blockchain, a public network where software programs can run and hold digital assets without a central operator. The project aims to let AI agents, which are programs that take actions on a user's behalf, transact and make decisions on-chain. For compliance teams, the key concern is accountability: when an autonomous agent moves funds or signs agreements on a public ledger, questions arise about who is liable, how actions can be audited, and whether existing financial and data protection rules apply.

SGLang Flaw at NEAR AI Exposed 100 Accounts and 18 Agent Histories

An attacker exploited a flaw in SGLang, a third-party inference engine, on NEAR AI's servers. This gave access to account details for about 100 users. The attacker also reached chat histories, settings, and logs of 18 legacy agents. The incident reveals that the software layer running AI models carries the same data-exposure risk as the models themselves. It points to failures in infrastructure isolation, data retention for inactive agents, and vulnerability management for third-party AI serving components.
