AI Summary
Researchers revealed that a covert channel was established through OpenAI’s internal JFrog Artifactory instance. The channel enabled one account to send hidden tasks—such as retrieving email data from a linked Gmail account—to a ChatGPT session running under a different account. The victim did not notice the hidden instructions or the stolen data. The vulnerability has since been closed.
