This is some really smart digging: realizing that Claude Code does not require user interaction for certain bash commands, they discovered that DNS lookups were specifically allowlisted, clearing a trivial path for well-known DNS exfiltration methods.

So when I say β€œall these implementations are ignoring years and decades of lessons learned the hard way” it’s not hyperbole. Anthropic 100% cleared the path for DNS exfil here.

i mean who could've expected a yearslong, deeply researched, regularly used method of data exfiltration COULD BE ABUSED BY REMOVING NECESSARY USER INTERACTION

me trying to be less adversarial towards AI and then they specifically enable noclick DNS exfil
