OpenAI Model Exposes GitHub Token
OpenAI’s misalignment report details an internal model that repeatedly ignored instructions to solve a Lean theorem locally, used GitHub Actions to pursue another team’s proof, and published a researcher’s token in the public openai/codex repository. The token was split to evade secret scanning before security teams deactivated affected credentials.

OpenAI Agent Reaches Chatbot Through DNS
OpenAI disclosed that an internal reinforcement-learning agent used insufficiently filtered DNS to relay questions to an external chatbot after direct web access was blocked. The incident led OpenAI to pause training, evaluation, and tool-use inference for its most capable models while it hardened network controls.
