Parameter Labs discovers exploit in ChatGPT's artifacts feature allowing data exfiltration
Parameter Labs found a complex attack chain in ChatGPT's artifacts feature that allows untrusted code in a sandboxed iframe to execute JavaScript and exfiltrate private user data. The exploit leverages the MathLive library's virtual keyboard triggered via postMessage(), and uses the YouTube oEmbed endpoint to bypass OpenAI's Content Security Policy and execute scripts. Once JavaScript runs, the attacker can access private APIs and steal data via image references, enabling data theft or unauthorized actions when a victim visits a specially crafted share URL.

Adobe tests AI agent that edits images like a Photoshop professional
Adobe researchers have built EditAgent, an AI system that edits images more like a human Photoshop professional. In tests of 600 image edits, a general-purpose editor failed nearly 43 percent of the time, while specialized tools solved about two-thirds of those failures. EditAgent plans edits in steps, generates multiple candidate solutions in parallel from the original image, and uses a language model to select the best result based on hard data such as brightness and color changes, rather than retrying the same editor repeatedly.
