PromptPwnd is a new type of vulnerability discovered by the Aikido Security research team that poses a serious threat to GitHub Actions and GitLab CI/CD pipelines that integrate AI agents. The vulnerability utilizes Prompt Injection to cause key compromise, workflow manipulation, and supply chain compromise by injecting malicious commands into an AI model, causing it to perform high-privilege operations. At least five Fortune 500 companies have been affected, and several high-profile projects such as the Google Gemini CLI have been verified to have the vulnerability.
