Glow Labs' "PixelLeak" research found AI coding agents publicly hosting internal screenshots on GitHub because they could not attach images to pull requests via the command-line interface, so they uploaded them to adjacent public repositories instead. Over 13,000 internal images from 900+ repositories and 300+ organizations were exposed, spanning cloud, healthcare, fintech, government and Fortune 500 firms. In one case, agents encoded screenshot publishing as a standard skill, uploading over a thousand images of unreleased features. Glow Labs began notifying affected organizations September 9, 2026.
