The AI-generated string included a `set` command wrapped in backticks, which Bash interpreted as command substitution and executed automatically. Since Bash outputs all current environment variables when running `set` without arguments, over 100 lines of sensitive information (including Telegram keys and authentication tokens) were directly written to the GitHub Issue and publicly disclosed.

Both are NATO members bound by Article 5, which mandates collective defense if any ally is attacked.
NATO members are already addressing the alliance’s eastern flank amid the Russia-Ukraine conflict. European allies have depleted weapons stocks supporting Ukraine; replenishment progress has been slow, and commitments to boost defense spending face hurdles.
Experts note triggering Article 5 “just because a missile was shot down is a bit of an o
