Google ADK runs generated code without a sandbox
HighAV-FW-019Runtime safetyFramework packNew in 2.0
What it finds
A Google ADK agent uses UnsafeLocalCodeExecutor to run model-written code on the host.
Why it matters
The executor is named "unsafe" for a reason: generated code runs with your app's full access.
What an attacker could do: Model-written code can read files, secrets and the network on the host.
How to fix it
Use BuiltInCodeExecutor or a container/VM-based executor with no secrets mounted.
Pro shows the corrected code for your exact file, step by step, and re-scans to confirm the fix. See plans
