On July 12, 2026, a Reddit user posted about discovering a new general vulnerability in ChatGPT. When reproduced and explained to ChatGPT, the model agreed with the finding. The user notes the issue is not limited to ChatGPT—they have also proven it in Claude, though it works differently. They suspect the vulnerability may affect all AI systems operating in a similar manner, estimating close to 10 models. The user has a shareable chatgpt.com link as a test case and describes it as a safety issue, stating 'chatgpt always' (excerpt cut off). They have not yet tested Gemini and do not use it, but plan to do so. The user is unsure of next steps and is asking for help.

Claude app user receives unrelated security advisory in response to simple prompt

A Reddit user reported that typing a simple prompt into the Claude app on iPad (Fable 5) resulted in a detailed, coherent writeup about a security product called 'Zenith Gateway'—including CVEs, patches, and affected versions—instead of the expected answer. The user suspects the model received someone else's input by mistake, as the response was fully structured with reasoning steps, not a random hallucination. This incident raises concerns about input integrity in AI chat interfaces.
