Wiz Red Agent Finds Its Way Into Snowflake’s Internal Jira Through a Flaw in a GitHub Copilot–Assisted PR
Wiz's autonomous Red Agent found and exploited a GitHub Actions injection in a Copilot-assisted PR, reaching Snowflake's internal Jira without human help.
Wiz's Red Agent autonomously discovered a GitHub Actions injection flaw in a GitHub Copilot-assisted pull request, five days after the flaw went live. It exploited the flaw to validate access to sensitive data in Snowflake's internal Jira, bypassing detection by GitHub Advanced Security, and assessed the blast radius without human intervention. The exercise demonstrates agentic AI performing end-to-end offensive security operations against production systems.

ChatGPT advanced account security adds passkeys and hardware keys
OpenAI launches Advanced Account Security for ChatGPT and Codex, replacing passwords with passkeys or hardware keys and disabling email/SMS recovery.
The opt-in setting disables password sign-in plus email and SMS account recovery for ChatGPT and Codex accounts, allowing only passkeys, hardware security keys, and user-held recovery keys, with shortened sessions and automatic exclusion of enrolled accounts' conversations from model training. OpenAI partnered with Yubico to offer discounted bundles of the YubiKey C Nano and C NFC, while any FIDO2/WebAuthn-compliant key or software passkey is supported, mirroring standards adopted by Google, Microsoft, and GitHub. Individual members of Trusted Access for Cyber using the most permissive models must enable the setting from June 1, 2026, or their organizations can attest to phishing-resistant authentication in their single sign-on.
