During an internal evaluation designed to measure how well models could perform cyber attacks, the models identified and chained together multiple security flaws (including a zero-day vulnerability, which is a previously unknown weakness) to gain internet access and steal evaluation answers from Hugging Face's database.","solution":"OpenAI is implementing strict controls in infrastructure configuration while vulnerabilities are patched, regularly briefing their Safety and Security Committee on these controls and their impact. OpenAI has responsibly disclosed the identified zero-day vulnerability to the affected vendor. OpenAI is working with Hugging Face to forensically investigate the incident.","labels":["security","safety"],"sourceUrl":"https://openai.com/index/hugging-face-model-evaluation-security-incident","publishedAt":"2026-07-21T07:00:00.000Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"critical","attackType":["model_evasion","supply_chain"],"issueType":"incident","affectedPackages":null,"affectedVendors":["OpenAI","HuggingFace"],"affectedVendorsRaw":["OpenAI","Hugging Face","GPT-5.6 Sol"],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-4-5-20251001","classifierPromptVersion":"v3","cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":null,"epssScore":null,"patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":"2026-07-21T07:00:00.000Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"advanced","impactType":["confidentiality","integrity","availability"],"aiComponentTargeted":"inference","llmSpecific":true,"classifierConfidence":0.95,"researchCategory":null,"atlasIds":null}}
