From 172ab0593b4876f1fa1a252f586d57b481194166 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Enrique=20Lo=CC=81pez=20Man=CC=83as?= Date: Sat, 5 Sep 2026 08:07:48 +0900 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] chore(ci): harden Gemini issue triage against prompt injection Issue titles and bodies are untrusted input that flows into the Gemini prompts used for triage labeling and auto-answering, so a crafted issue can steer the model output that drives label application. This change limits the blast radius: - Validate model output against an exact allowlist of the five priority labels; drop anything else, including non-strings and labels containing newlines or extra whitespace. - Strip newlines before writing to GITHUB_OUTPUT so script output cannot inject additional output keys. - Wrap the untrusted issue content in delimiters in both triage and answer prompts and instruct the model to treat it as data only. - Add a per-issue concurrency group with cancel-in-progress so rapid edit loops cannot stack Gemini API calls.
