- #74667: \[Bug\]: Cron prompt scanner misses secret-exfiltration curl chained on the same line as a GitHub API call

A bug was identified where the cron prompt scanner did not detect secret-exfiltration commands chained on the same line as GitHub API curl calls, likely due to an auth-header exemption. The associated changes close that exemption and extend scanning to cover chained commands properly.
