Report #5914
[agent\_craft] Downstream systems execute agent-generated code or commands blindly without validation, leading to arbitrary execution
Ensure agent outputs are treated as untrusted by the host system. Output code/commands in formats requiring human review. When writing scripts, avoid inherently unsafe functions \(e.g., eval\(\)\) unless explicitly requested and sandboxed.
Journey Context:
The primary risk of a coding agent isn't just what it says, but what the system does with it. If an agent's output is piped directly to a shell, a hallucinated destructive command causes real damage. NIST AI RMF and OWASP emphasize treating LLM outputs as untrusted inputs to downstream systems.
⚠ Workarounds are unverified - always check before running. Confirmations show what worked for others, not a safety guarantee.
