Meta Muse exposes users' personal and business secrets when they share conversations

Key points

• Meta has suspended the sharing feature of Muse, its new general-purpose AI agent, after researchers found it can expose sensitive information. Security firm Claroc said it listed 6,800 shared conversation links, and opening a few hundred revealed private material.
• The material included an executive-search note, a loan application, a bank fraud alert, a property performance report and a staff vacation calendar. Meta said it is reviewing the issue and considering changes to how the links can be discovered.
• Claroc said it reported the findings through Meta's bug bounty program on October 8.
