Ammon News - OpenAI has confirmed a security breach involving a third-party analytics provider, Mixpanel.
ChatGPT maker OpenAI has confirmed a security incident, which it says is not its fault.

The data breach involves a third-party analytics provider, Mixpanel, which resulted in the exposure of limited user data associated with its API platform.

“This was not a breach of OpenAI’s systems. No chat, API requests, API usage data, passwords, credentials, API keys, payment details, or government IDs were compromised or exposed,” the company said in an email notifying users on Thursday.

Mixpanel reportedly became aware of an attacker on November 9, OpenAI said.

The threat actor gained unauthorised access to part of its systems and exported a dataset which had limited customer-identifiable information and analytics data.

OpenAI said the information that may have been affected was limited to names, email addresses, and user identifiers.

OpenAI said that it had terminated its use of Mixpanel and reaffirmed that the breach wasn’t caused by any vulnerabilities in OpenAI’s systems.
