> NEAR AI said it blocked the access and fixed the vulnerability, but its cloud service remained paused pending security confirmation.

NEAR AI said an attacker exploited a vulnerability in SGLang, the AI inference engine it uses, on Nov. 8 and gained unauthorized access to part of the company’s internal infrastructure. The incident prompted a security response and left NEAR AI Cloud paused.

NEAR AI said it blocked the attacker’s access and fixed the vulnerability. The update did not explain how far the intrusion extended or say whether user data was accessed.

NEAR AI Cloud remained paused pending confirmation that its systems were secure. The company said it would restore the service after reaching that security confirmation.

NEAR AI said it had notified all users affected by the incident. Users who had not received a notice did not need to take action.

The company also said the intrusion did not affect NEAR Protocol’s mainnet or its other services.

The update builds on [NEAR AI’s earlier decision to suspend cloud inference after discovering unauthorized system access](<https://www.tokenpost.com/news/technology/53561>), adding the SGLang vulnerability as the reported entry point.
