WalkthroughThe ACS CI nightly task now routes legacy metadata lookups through the OpenShell loopback emulator and authenticates Jira preflight requests with configured credentials. The README documents the metadata routing and read-only provider endpoints. ChangesACS CI nightly workflow
Priority: ⬇️ Low Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes Change: Bug fix Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The Jira API token can be exposed to concurrent processes during the preflight request. Use a credential-backed authentication mechanism that keeps secrets out of process arguments before merging. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

Using --user to pass credentials on the command line can be a security risk. The command line arguments of a process, including the credentials, may be visible to other users on the system via the process list. Consider passing the credentials via an environment variable or a file.

Do not pass Jira credentials in curl arguments. The provider injects JIRA_EMAIL and JIRA_API_TOKEN, and the sandbox exposes /proc to processes running as the shared sandbox user. The ACS task can run concurrent CI analysis processes. Therefore, curl --user "$JIRA_EMAIL:$JIRA_API_TOKEN" exposes the credentials through /proc/<pid>/cmdline while the request runs. Use the provider's credential-backed authentication path without placing raw credentials in process arguments.

The ACS OpenShell preflight reached the GCE metadata path but legacy gsutil used its GCE_METADATA_ROOT setting, which was not configured. Point it at OpenShell's loopback metadata emulator in both workflows.
The Jira probe also omitted authentication entirely; send the injected provider placeholders through curl basic auth so the probe exercises the same read-only provider binding.
