We got admin access to Baseten's production GitHub in 25 minutes
Strix autonomous hacking agent extracted a working GitHub token with repo admin rights from Baseten's public Harbor image; Baseten rotated it next day.
Strix, an autonomous hacking agent, scanned *.baseten.co without credentials and found a public Harbor container registry project anonymously exposing the baseten/baseten-app image. A GitHub personal access token for basetenbot, embedded in Docker build history since March 2023, still worked in July 2026 and granted admin/push rights to basetenlabs/baseten, flux-cd, and homebrew-tap plus read/write on private customer repos. Baseten, valued at $13 billion, confirmed the issue as critical and rotated the token within a day.

GitHub Pays $100,000 Bounty for Critical RCE Flaw in Git Push Pipeline
GitHub paid Saif Ghani $100,000 for CVE-2026-3854, a critical unauthenticated RCE in its Git push pipeline allowing command execution on backend infrastructure.
GitHub awarded researcher Saif Ghani $100,000, its largest publicly disclosed bug bounty, for CVE-2026-3854, a critical unauthenticated remote code execution flaw in its Git push processing pipeline. A crafted repository URL could trigger arbitrary command execution on backend infrastructure, threatening source code integrity, repository secrets, and software supply chains. GitHub deployed mitigations and completed a patch rollout through coordinated disclosure before technical details became public.
