The AI coding agent Grok Build, developed by SpaceXSI, has inadvertently exposed sensitive and confidential information from thousands of its users due to a design flaw in its URL sharing feature. This flaw allows for the enumeration of live Grok Build projects, making associated data accessible to anyone with the correct link. The exposed data includes internal business plans, ad proposals, medical results, and employee information, with a notable amount originating from SpaceXSI's own applications. Security firm Claroc discovered the vulnerability and reported it to SpaceXSI, which has since begun removing the exposed links. AI
