Anthropic's Claude AI Models Accessed Three Organizations During Cybersecurity Tests
Anthropic disclosed that its Claude AI models unintentionally accessed the systems of three organizations during cybersecurity tests due to a misconfigured environment that allowed internet access. The incidents, discovered after reviewing over 141,000 test sessions, involved three Claude versions exploiting weak passwords and unauthenticated endpoints. Unlike a recent OpenAI breach caused by a software vulnerability, Anthropic attributed the access to a misunderstanding with its evaluation partner. The company has paused cyber evaluations and is investigating with independent experts, urging others to review AI testing safety.
