  "account": "Elon Musk's AI-powered coding platform, Grok Build, has been found leaking sensitive data due to insecure default settings. Researchers discovered that thousands of Grok Build apps were publicly accessible, exposing business data, healthcare records, passwords, and internal documents. The platform, created by SpaceXSI following the merger between SpaceX and xAI, allows users to generate web applications through a chat interface. Despite password protection, 94.7% of apps could be accessed without authentication, and a majority used the \"Anyone with the link\" sharing setting as the default. The leaked data included hospital employee directories, patient information, recruitment databases, and SpaceXSI's classified information, such as onboarding plans and employee lists. Researchers notified SpaceXSI of the vulnerabilities, and the company remediated the issue within two days, identifying and notifying affected users.",
  "summary": "Default Grok Build options are wreaking havoc again - and even SpaceXSI wasn't safe from its own configurations.",
