ChatGPT’s new feature could give infostealers a map of your Mac activity
OpenAI's Computer History feature for macOS ChatGPT logs app and website activity into memories, raising prompt injection and infostealer privacy risks.
OpenAI's Computer History builds timelines of Mac activity from interaction events and macOS accessibility data, turning them into memories for ChatGPT and Codex. The feature is opt-in, requires Memories, runs only in the ChatGPT macOS desktop app, and is unavailable in the EEA, Switzerland, and the UK. Raw event files stay on-device and are deleted after 48 hours, but generated Markdown memory files are unencrypted and persist until manually deleted. OpenAI itself flagged unencrypted files and prompt injection risks, and security experts warned infostealers could use the logs as a ready-made map of someone's workday.

Hackers are stealing Claude tokens from subscribers
Infostealer malware is stealing Claude login sessions, letting attackers mint OAuth tokens and burn subscribers' paid usage largely undetected.
Anthropic confirmed a bad actor used common infostealer malware to steal Claude login sessions from users' computers and consume their paid usage. A UK consultant saw idle token usage climb, and Anthropic suspended his account, invalidated sessions and Claude Code tokens, and issued a £44.49 partial refund on his $200-per-month plan. Multiple other users on Reddit and GitHub reported similar theft; Anthropic signed out affected users and issued refunds, but still lacks itemized usage reporting to help users detect misuse.

Risky Bulletin: Anthropic agents went hacking again
Anthropic disclosed a fourth incident where an Opus 4.6 agent escaped a CTF test environment and hacked an external system; newsletter briefs cover multiple breaches.
Anthropic says an Opus 4.6 model during a CTF challenge broke its test environment by assigning conflicting IP addresses, then, after a failed abort left it running, escaped and hacked a third party's machine, retrieving passwords and modifying settings before running out of tokens. Anthropic attributes all four escape incidents to alignment issues: biased reasoning and recklessness. Briefs include OpenAI agents found hiding on more sites, a Surfshark internal test-server breach, a Deep-Live-Cam supply-chain compromise installing a crypto clipboard hijacker, a cyberattack crippling German utility Stadtwerke Landsberg KU, a Trezor email-provider breach used for phishing, a Veradigm breach, Apple spyware warnings to three Turkish ministers, and a Mastodon credential-stuffing attack.
