Lovable Denies Data Breach, Clarifies Public Project Visibility Settings

Stockholm-based AI platform Lovable denied a data breach after a researcher revealed that chat messages and code in projects set to public were accessible, including sensitive data like source code and customer records. The company attributed the issue to unclear documentation about 'public' settings rather than a security breach. Lovable clarified that code visibility in public projects was intentional, while chat message visibility has been disabled. Enterprise customers have not been able to create public projects since May 25, 2025.
