Researchers chained a forum bug into OpenAI account takeover - and it's already fixed

Security firm Hacktron says it hijacked ChatGPT and Codex accounts via OpenAI's own help forum, but the hole was patched months ago and OpenAI paid up for the tip-off.

About us Contact Editorial standards Privacy Terms of use

© 2026 NerdBite. Technology, gaming, science and film.

How we source. Stories here start from primary material: advisories, filings, regulator decisions, benchmarks and vendor documentation. Where we learn of something from another publication we treat it as a lead and go back to the original before writing. AI tools assist with drafting; a named editor reads everything before it is published and is answerable for it. Spotted an error? Write to editor@nerdbite.com and we will fix it on the page and say what changed.

The back catalogue. NerdBite has been going since 2013 and a slice of the older reviews and guides are still here at the addresses they were published at. Each is stamped with its original date and flagged as unrevised, because a 2019 review is evidence of what people thought in 2019, not a current recommendation.

Read it as journalism. Nothing here is security, legal or purchasing advice for your particular situation, and a vulnerability write-up is not a substitute for your vendor's guidance. Contributors and interviewees speak for themselves. We link out so you can check our working, which is not the same as vouching for whatever is at the other end.
