Two vulnerabilities in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore's Python SDK (CVE-2026-12530 and CVE-2026-16796) allowed specially crafted package names (and pip extras syntax) to be interpreted as shell commands by the Code Interpreter helper, enabling command execution inside Firecracker-isolated sandboxes and potential exposure of temporary AWS credentials tied to execution roles; AWS issued fixes (1.6.1 and 1.18.1) and recommended upgrades and tighter IAM/usage controls.
