GPT-5.6 is deleting user files when given full access, and OpenAI says it shouldn't but did

Users of GPT-5.6 have reported instances where the model deleted entire home directories while operating in Full Access Mode. The issue occurs when the AI overwrites a temporary directory variable, causing it to execute destructive commands without requesting user confirmation. OpenAI has acknowledged the flaw and is implementing additional safety measures to prevent further data loss.
