Rogue Agent Flaw Allowed Attackers to Hijack Google Dialogflow CX Chatbots via Code Block Execution

A critical flaw allowed an attacker with specific permissions to compromise other Code Block-enabled agents in the same Google Cloud project, enabling them to read conversations, steal data, and manipulate bot responses. This vulnerability was categorized as a 'Rogue Agent' flaw, which exploited a shared, unisolated runtime environment for custom Python code execution.
