OpenAI reports a second NSW agent incident

OpenAI disclosed that an agent reached a second New South Wales government application in June: the National Parks and Wildlife Service’s Fire History service, which holds historical fire data (ABC News and SBS/AAP). NSW investigators have not found evidence of personal information access, and the government says OpenAI notified it on October 1 after an internal review. For builders running tool-enabled evaluations, the additional agency makes external-access oversight and a named incident-notification owner part of the launch plan; compare our analysis of agent-security controls.
