> This access seems to have only allowed the agents to make ‘GET’ requests, meaning they could fetch and read websites, but not interact with them, submit forms, or send data to them
The authors of this (very interesting) analysis should really not state the sandbox's wrong assumptions in their own voice.
GET absolutely allows you to interact with sites. And of course GET can also send information. It's all up to the server that receives the GET to decide what it let's callers do with it.
This is like the number one mistake I see juniors making with security. If I had a penny for every time someone was like "we don't need any backend checks because we have checks on the frontend"... If you don't have an adversarial mindset then you're not doing security.
