Patched vulnerability in ChatGPT macOS app could have allowed full takeover
Researchers at the Objective‑See Foundation disclosed a recently patched vulnerability in OpenAI’s ChatGPT macOS app that could have allowed an attacker to run arbitrary commands and access chat logs and other data by abusing a trusted script interpreter. OpenAI acknowledged the issue in its system changelog on September 25; the researcher Patrick Wardle says the exploit was trivial and he will present related macOS AI app analyses at the Objective by the Sea conference.
