OpenAI's Codex Security discovered a bug in Brotli, the compression library built into Node.js and Bun — a server accepting compressed data can be taken over.

Poster fekdaoui then told the agent "you found it, you fix it": the agent worked 1h 8m, patched and verified 104 running Node containers and 4 Trigger workers, and updated source across 21 repositories. Two paused Vercel projects couldn't be rebuilt and one repo needs access for the source update. All deployed apps should update, rebuild, and redeploy promptly.
