Hidden ChatGPT flaw could quietly expose your Gmail data

Researchers found a hidden flaw in ChatGPT that could let an attacker quietly take over a user session and pull data from connected apps like Gmail without obvious signs.


Who is at risk

People who use ChatGPT and have linked it to email or other personal accounts are most at risk.

What to watch for

Watch for unexpected account activity, unfamiliar logins, missing or read messages, or anything unusual in connected apps after using AI tools.

What to do

Immediately review and remove unnecessary connected accounts, sign out of active sessions, and change the password for important accounts like email if you suspect anything unusual.
