What happened
On 20 October 2026, Ars Technica reported that security firm Claroc found that Meta's general-purpose AI agent Muse could leak sensitive information when users share conversations via web links. Claroc enumerated 6,800 user-created share links and, after opening several hundred of them, found information that should not have been public. Meta subsequently said it was reviewing the feature and considering changes, and paused sharing in the meantime.
