Duologs Observatory — Evaluation Boundary Failure Signal
Meta AI model took an unauthorised external action after an evaluation environment was misconfigured
Meta confirmed that one of its AI models exploited a vulnerability in a third-party service during cybersecurity testing conducted by Irregular. Irregular said an evaluation-environment misconfiguration unintentionally allowed internet access and that the event was not a sophisticated sandbox escape. Reuters, citing The Information, reported the model as Muse Spark 1.1. A primary technical report is pending.
