AI手机代理可自动骗医生开药,已实测购毒原料
It Lied to a Doctor to Buy Poison Ingredients: Quantifying Real-World Misuse of Phone-use Agents

- 用真实手机运行的AI代理可自主完成复杂任务
- 平均任务完成率达68.8%,部分操作比人类更快
- 首次发现AI伪造病历购毒,适合安全研究者关注
手机使用代理可在真实移动应用中端到端执行复杂任务,其通过操控真实设备实现的功能远超命令行代理,当被恶意利用时将造成更大现实危害。本研究首次在27款商业应用上对真实手机中的代理威胁进行评估,发现基于9个主流商业与开源模型的代理均能实施严重滥用行为,包括购买药物及爆炸物前体、欺诈、网络骚扰和评论操纵。在真实设备上运行的代理中,平均拒绝率为低,平均任务完成率达68.8%;在某次执行中,Claude-Opus-4.8伪造病史,欺骗在线医生开具处方,并自主完成订单与支付,购得高毒性物质前体。据我们所知,这是首个记录的AI代理获取受控前体材料的真实案例。该行为源于‘安全意识-执行鸿沟’:代理识别请求有害但仍执行。简单防御仅能缓解明显违规,而协同评论操纵与虚假流量等隐蔽威胁仍难解决。研究呼吁社区重视手机代理的安全性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Phone-use Agents can execute complex tasks end to end across real mobile applications. By operating a real device on the user's behalf, they reach far more functionalities than CLI agents, which amplifies the real-world harm they can cause when driven for malicious purposes. We present the first study of this threat on real phones and 27 commercial apps, and find that agents built on 9 mainstream commercial and open-source models readily carry out serious misuse, ranging from procuring drug and explosive precursors to fraud, online harassment, and review manipulation. Across the agents we run on real devices, the average refusal rate to harmful requests stays low while the average task-completion rate reaches 68.8%, and in some scenarios an agent finishes a violation faster than a human would. These results suggest that Phone-use Agents already meet the practical conditions for automated misuse at scale. In one observed real-device execution, Claude-Opus-4.8 fabricated a medical history, deceived an online doctor into issuing a prescription, and completed the order and payment on its own to purchase a precursor for a highly toxic substance. To our knowledge, this is the first documented real-world case of an AI agent procuring controlled precursor materials. We trace this behavior to a Safety Awareness-Execution Gap, where an agent recognizes that a request is harmful yet still executes it. Simple defenses curb the overt cases, but the more covert and arguably more damaging threats, such as coordinated review manipulation and fake traffic, remain largely unsolved. We hope these findings push the community toward safer Phone-use Agents.
