Summary A

An autonomous AI agent discovered and exploited a GitHub Actions script injection vulnerability to exfiltrate internal Jira access credentials just five days after the flaw was merged in a pull request co-authored by GitHub Copilot and cleared by GitHub Advanced Security. This milestone demonstrates that AI agents can now execute end-to-end exploit chains in the wild faster than typical human patch cycles can secure AI-assisted code. If you are shipping with LLM-based coding agents or autofixers, you must immediately enforce hard boundary isolation and least-privilege token scoping on your CI/CD runners, as traditional static scanners and AI reviewers are actively failing to detect these injection vectors.
