OpenAI’s chatGPT faces scrutiny over two major security issues. The initial problem pertains to the Mac application for ChatGPT, identified by engineer Pedro José Pereira Vieito. Vieito uncovered that the application was keeping user chats in clear text instead of securing them.
This finding stood out because the application is not listed on the App Store, meaning it fails to meet Apple's sandboxing standards. The second security issue is from 2023 and involves a breach by a hacker into OpenAI's internal communication networks, revealing weaknesses that might be used by foreign enemies.
Sandboxing is a security technique that protects an application from vulnerabilities in one application from spreading to others. Keeping files at the local level in their unencrypted form is a major hazard because it makes it simple for other applications or malicious software to gain access to the data.
