OpenAI's ChatGPT recently introduced a memory feature that allows the AI to remember user-specific details, enhancing personalization. However, a security researcher revealed a significant vulnerability that enables manipulation of this memory, raising serious privacy concerns. This flaw allows the AI to accept false information, which can be carried over into future interactions.
The researcher, Johann Rehberger, demonstrated how indirect prompt injection could trick ChatGPT into retaining fabricated memories. OpenAI responded promptly by releasing a patch to address the vulnerability, but the incident highlights ongoing security challenges in AI systems. As AI tools become more integrated into daily life, balancing innovation with data protection remains crucial.
