In this paper, we identify a new security issue, called the malicious energy attack, in sustainable wireless communication networks (SWCNs). We show that by providing extra energy to specific nodes, a malicious energy source (MES) can intentionally manipulate the routing path of SWCNs. The efficiency of energy attack depends on which nodes to be attacked. To enhance the efficiency of energy attack, a reinforcement learning technique, Q-Learning, is used to develop an intelligent energy attack (Q-IEA) policy for MES. Through interacting with the network environment, the Q-IEA can intelligently take attack actions without having to know the details of the routing method at the network layer. This function can greatly enhance the adaptability of MES to different routing protocols and network topologies. Simulation results verify that Q-IEA can significantly manipulate the routing path of the targeted traffic on demand.
