This Monday morning, June 8th, Meta confirms around 20,000 Instagram accounts were compromised through a vulnerability in its AI chatbot. Both Memeburn and SecurityWeek report hackers exploited an AI-powered account recovery tool, tricking it into sending password reset links to their own emails. High-profile accounts, including one linked to the Obama White House, were reportedly affected. Meta has since disabled the vulnerable tool and invalidated all related password reset links.
