Chat history disclosure via exposed history directory
Published Jun 4, 2024 · Updated Oct 15, 2025
Missing authorization in GaiZhenbiao ChuanhuChatGPT before 20240919 allows remote attackers to read other users' chat histories. The Gradio launch configuration exposes the shared history directory as an allowed path, letting requests retrieve files outside the requesting user's history selection. No authentication or user interaction is required when the web service is network-reachable, and the impact is limited to disclosure of stored conversations.
