Thanks to new ChatGPT updates like the Code Interpreter, OpenAI’s popular generative artificial intelligence is rife with more security concerns. According to research from security expert Johann Rehberger (and follow-up work from Tom’s Hardware), ChatGPT has glaring security flaws that stem from its new file-upload feature.
OpenAI’s recent update to ChatGPT Plus added a myriad of new features, including DALL-E image generation and the Code Interpreter, which allows Python code execution and file analysis. The code is created and run in a sandbox environment that is unfortunately vulnerable to prompt injection attacks.
