Replit says it is patching infrastructure, updating language tooling and blocking exploits on its customers' behalf after this week's widely used software vulnerabilities. It warns that as AI makes flaws easier to find, security teams will face growing pressure.
Meta has restored sharing in Muse after security researchers at Claroc reported that public conversation links were easy to find. The researchers said they had come across pages such as a company's internal revenue review and a small business owner's loan application.
