The firm Tenable Research has discovered multiple new and persistent vulnerabilities in ChatGPT from OpenAI that could allow an attacker to exfiltrate data.
According to the study, these failures include indirect prompt injections, exfiltration of personal information, evasion of security filters, and the possibility of an attacker modifying the “memories” of the user to extract data persistently. In simple terms, simply asking an innocent question can expose you to system manipulation if the AI accesses a compromised website or encounters hidden instructions.
For ordinary users, the impact is not limited to digital privacy: compromising the security of an account can lead to theft of banking credentials, identity theft, electronic fraud, and financial loss. Language models like ChatGPT are used daily by hundreds of millions of people to perform searches, review documents, or plan expenses. If financial data is included in these conversations, the risk multiplies.
