黑客利用Meta AI客服聊天机器人漏洞窃取名人Instagram账户
黑客利用Meta AI客服聊天机器人的漏洞,窃取了高价的Instagram用户名并将其转售。Meta在事后修复了该安全漏洞。
Meta 的 AI 客服被一句自然语言就骗去改密码,完全绕过身份验证。这几乎是教科书级的提示注入攻击,提醒每个团队,给 AI 代理权限前至少加个人工授权环节。
Both ZachXBT and Dark Web Informer also confirmed how hackers had targeted and resold particularly valuable Instagram accounts, including the short handles @hey and @jowo with a “combined gray-market valuation estimated above $1 million,” according to the CyberSec Guru. Such accounts can be valuable even if hackers hold them for just a few days because of “clout, resale or brand impersonation,” the security blog reported.
The wide security hole
The CyberSec Guru also described the exploit as representing the classic “confused deputy” problem from computer security, in which a program with elevated permissions is tricked into misusing those permissions on behalf of a less privileged third party. But in this case, the “deputy” was a large language model with a “probabilistic response model you can nudge with words” instead of a “deterministic program” with “hard-coded conditionals you’d need to bypass with code.”
It’s worth keeping in mind that users had simple security solutions available, even with the Meta AI support chatbot being exploited. The hackers reported their exploit failing against any accounts that had enabled multifactor authentication (MFA), including the “least robust form of MFA that Instagram offers” in the form of one-time codes sent through SMS, according to KrebsOnSecurity.
But the exploit still highlights the broader risk of tech companies and other organizations rushing to deploy AI agents with elevated permissions that allow them to modify, create, or delete critical data. Meta had launched its Meta AI support assistant in March 2026 with the promise that it could “provide reliable, 24/7 support for nearly any support issue at any time.”
The “minimum” architecture required to do this more safely, according to the CyberSec Guru, would include “out-of-band verification before any account modification… rate limiting on AI-initiated reset flows keyed to account risk signals, action logging with anomaly detection for unusual AI-driven account modifications, and a hard deterministic gate.”
