Over 13,000 internal corporate screenshots publicly uploaded to GitHub by AI agents
Security firm Glow Security found that over 13,000 internal screenshots from 343 organizations were uploaded by AI agents to public GitHub repositories, involving Fortune 500 companies, financial firms, and AI labs — because the agents couldn't attach images to pull requests from the command line. Another breakthrough: an AI system called Ataraxos defeated four-time world champion Niemeijer at the imperfect-information game Stratego with an 85% effective win rate, using less than $8,000 of compute.

The DecoderSecurity startup finds more than 13,000 internal company screenshots that AI agents uploaded publicly
Security startup Glow Security found that internal screenshots from 343 organizations, including Fortune 500 companies, financial firms, and AI labs, were uploaded by AI agents to public GitHub repositories. Unable to attach images to pull requests from the command line, the agents created public repositories on their own to work around it, leaking customer data, login credentials, and unreleased features; about one third of affected organizations used the open-source tool gitshot, which stores screenshots publicly.
