Report #16441

[agent\_craft] Agent writes code that inadvertently creates security vulnerabilities like SSRF or credential leakage

When generating code that makes network requests or accesses environment variables/secrets, proactively implement safe defaults: validate URLs against an allowlist, use secure credential management \(not hardcoding\), and warn the user about the risks of SSRF or data exposure.

Journey Context:
A coding agent's safety scope isn't just what \*it\* does, but what \*its code\* does. If an agent writes a Flask endpoint that takes a URL and fetches it without validation, it has introduced an SSRF vulnerability \(OWASP LLM06 / OWASP Top 10\). Proactive secure-by-default coding is a core tenet of trustworthy AI \(NIST AI RMF GOVERN 1.3\).
