'CoSnitch' Attack Tricked Copilot Into Mapping Out Architecture

Security researchers have identified an attack method designated 'CoSnitch' that manipulates Microsoft Copilot through meta-hacking techniques into disclosing its internal architecture and underlying security weaknesses. The exploit enables attackers to map out the system's defensive structures and backend configurations, effectively turning the AI assistant into an reconnaissance instrument against its own deployment environment. Detailed mechanisms focus on bypassing existing guardrails to extract sensitive infrastructure telemetry.
