Meta has temporarily disabled a feature of its Muse AI assistant that let users share conversation excerpts, after a security firm discovered thousands of those links were accessible online. Claroc, a cybersecurity company, reported finding more than 6,800 publicly reachable Muse URLs by scanning open DNS records.
Tracy Clayton, a spokesperson for Muse, told The Verge that the sharing option creates a unique page that anyone with the link can view. “People have the ability to share specific Muse artifacts, which creates a page that can be accessed by those with the link,” she said, adding, “However, we’ve paused this functionality while we review this report and consider changes to how these links can be dis …”
The pause remains in effect as Meta evaluates the findings and decides on possible adjustments to the sharing mechanism.
