Question 160
A second enterprise uses pull_request_target automation without isolating untrusted fork code from credentials. Which unsupported assumption should the engineer challenge FIRST?
Explanation
Correct Answer
Requiring a pull request does not make code from an untrusted fork safe to execute with deployment credentials. This is the relevant unsupported assumption because source contribution and deployment authorization are different trust boundaries that must be enforced independently.
Incorrect Answers
