Executive Summary

This report covers firewall activity across all agentic workflows in the github/gh-aw repository for the period 2026-03-28 to 2026-04-04 (last 7 days). Out of ~180 workflow runs analyzed, only 3 runs triggered firewall-blocked network requests — all occurring on April 4, 2026. The total blocked request count is 4, with a 100% block rate (0 allowed requests were observed in the same runs). Notably, the blocked domain names (value, <domain>, "...") appear to be firewall log parsing artifacts rather than real hostnames, suggesting that these blocks may stem from malformed network request log entries rather than actual unauthorized domain access attempts.

The overall firewall posture for this period is healthy — the vast majority of workflow runs made no external network requests that the firewall needed to evaluate.

Key Metrics

Terminology Note: The 0 allowed requests figure means these specific runs had no network traffic passing through the firewall — only blocked attempts were observed. The vast majority of runs (177+) had no firewall-observable network traffic at all.

Top Blocked Domains

Important: These domain names are not real hostnames. They appear to be template placeholder text or truncated values captured during firewall log parsing. This likely indicates a logging/parsing anomaly rather than real blocked traffic. No suspicious legitimate domains were observed in blocked traffic.

📈 Firewall Activity Trends

Request Patterns

Firewall activity was effectively zero for the first 6 days of the reporting window (March 28 – April 3). On April 4, a small spike of 4 blocked requests appeared across 3 separate workflows. All 4 blocked requests had malformed domain names, suggesting this is a logging artifact rather than a security event. No upward trend in blocked traffic is observed.

Top Blocked Domains

All 3 unique "blocked domains" are clearly non-real hostnames — placeholder text, template variables, or truncated log entries. The absence of any recognizable domain names (e.g., no *.com, *.io, *.net patterns) strongly indicates this is a log parsing issue rather than actual blocked traffic to external services.

Security Recommendations

1. 🔍 Investigate Firewall Log Parsing Artifacts
The three "blocked domains" (value, <domain>, "...") are clearly not real domain names. This is likely caused by a log parsing issue where template placeholder text or truncated values are being interpreted as domain names in the firewall audit logs. Recommend investigating the firewall audit log parser to ensure it handles malformed entries gracefully.

2. ✅ No Legitimate Services Need Allowlisting
No recognizable legitimate services were blocked during this period. No action needed on the network allow-list for any of the affected workflows.

3. 🔒 Healthy Firewall Posture
The overall firewall posture is healthy — 177+ workflow runs had zero firewall-observable network traffic, indicating that most workflows are correctly operating within their defined network permissions.

4. 📊 Low Network Request Volume
All three workflows with blocked requests had very low total request counts (1-2 per run), suggesting these are incidental or edge-case network attempts rather than systematic issues.

5. 🔄 Monitor Trends
Continue monitoring for the appearance of actual domain names in blocked traffic. The current data suggests no real external access attempts were blocked. If real domain names appear in future reports, compare them against each workflow's network.allowed list to determine if they need allowlisting.
