Meta fixes bug that could leak users’ AI prompts and generated content


The tech giant fixed the security flaw, netting a security researcher $10,000 for privately disclosing the bug.

Meta deployed a fix on January 24, 2025, said Hodkasia, and found no evidence that the bug was maliciously exploited. The bug meant that Meta’s servers were not properly checking to ensure that the user requesting the prompt and its response was authorized to see it. News of the bug comes at a time when tech giants are scrambling to launch and refine their AI products, despite many security and privacy risks associated with their use.
