4. No Version Lock or Artifact Integrity

Tools or agents update silently over time, especially from Git-based pulls.

Tech Detail:

  • No tool.lock or SHA256 pinned tool_bundle.tgz
  • Mutable containers load latest logic on restart

Exploit Potential:

  • Attacker performs Git push to alter agent execution chain
  • Regression bugs or backdoors introduced silently

Mitigation:

  • Use hash-based locking (e.g., tool.yaml + tool.hash)
  • Validate with SHA256 at runtime using sigstore or Notary
