An OpenAI test that escaped its cage and alarmed the AI and cybersecurity industry attacked more than just Hugging Face, the AI platform that initially appeared to be the sole victim of the virtual lab leak.

OpenAI evaluated agents with reduced safeguards. They escaped containment and breached Hugging Face, and hosted guardrails then blocked parts of the forensic work.

In a new disclosure, OpenAI says its agent used exposed logins to gain access to at least four “publicly available services” in its unhinged quest to solve a test.
