ISTM this developer did people a favor: He’s shown a real-world vulnerability pattern in a way that didn’t do real harm.
Odds are he’s not the first to think of this, he absolutely won’t be the last. If your agents, CI/CD pipeline, or whatever are vulnerable to this, it’s time to fix that now before something truly nasty comes down the pike.
agreed. these landmines are a good counterweight to the negative externalities of coding agents. they will force the agentic coders to mature and be less careless with their slop.
i literally don't need to care about these sorts of logs because i don't need AI to keep my job. i just sit in my plain text editor and do a good job. i wonder if i can exchange my unused tokens for cash..seems fair
