A disclosed vulnerability chain reportedly bypasses Cowork's isolation, letting an attacker with local code execution reach root inside its Linux sandbox. Single-source from a security roundup, so treat it as unconfirmed pending a primary advisory. The durable lesson stands regardless: an agent sandbox is a speed bump, not a wall. Don't run genuinely untrusted code and assume the isolation layer will save you.
