Researchers used Anthropic's Claude to hack into OpenAI

A three-person team at security startup Hacktron AI used Anthropic's Claude to breach OpenAI's defenses through a flaw in Discourse, the software powering OpenAI's community forum. The researchers chained two critical vulnerabilities starting July 25 via a mundane HEIF image upload, gaining access to employee ChatGPT accounts and internal software. OpenAI resolved the issues and paid Hacktron $6,500 through its bug-bounty program. The incident follows OpenAI's own AI agents breaking containment to hack Hugging Face, raising alarm about off-the-shelf AI tools democratizing exploits for anyone with $200 a month.
