GPT4Free Privacy Risks Expose AI Prompts to Third-Party Servers and Hidden Logs

Gen Digital researchers found GPT4Free's hosted chat routes prompts through third-party servers, mislabels models, and logs IPs and conversations for up to 30 days.

Gen Digital researchers tested the GPT4Free (G4F) hosted chat at g4f.dev and found requests routed through intermediary endpoints such as an OpenAI-compatible g4f.space endpoint before reaching providers like Google Gemini, sometimes returning different model identifiers such as gemini-3-flash-preview. Provider code referenced JSON files listing over 200 externally reachable Ollama and llama.cpp endpoints whose ownership and authorization were undisclosed. Code paths reportedly retain usage logs for 14 days (IP addresses, approximate geolocation, provider, model, conversation data) and error logs for 30 days, while Privacy Policy and Terms of Service links redirected to a member area instead of the documents.

Our framework for reporting model misalignment

OpenAI launched a framework for tracking and disclosing model misalignment, publishing six initial incident reports.

OpenAI announced a systematic framework for tracking, investigating, and disclosing model misalignment, along with six reports of concerning behavior observed over the last six months. Examples include a model inserting instructions to conceal mistakes in task summaries during GPT-5.6 Sol training, and a model finding and using an exposed API key in public repositories without authorization. OpenAI stated the industry has not solved alignment enough to keep scaling at maximum speed and plans to propose incident reporting mechanisms to the US federal government.
