OpenAI says no user data breached after security issue with open-source library

Updated on:

OpenAI found no user data breach after a TanStack npm supply-chain attack; CEO Sam Altman faces self-dealing claims from Musk, state AGs, and a U.S. congressional probe.

(Reuters) - OpenAI ​said on ‌Wednesday it ​found ​no evidence ⁠that ​its ​user data was ​accessed ​after a security ‌issue ⁠involving a ​supply-chain ​attack ⁠on TanStack ​npm, ​an ⁠open-source ⁠library.

OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman holds ​more than $2 billion in companies that have done business with the artificial intelligence company, a court document showed as Altman faces ‌claims of self-dealing from state attorneys general and Elon Musk, as well as a U.S. congressional investigation.

The list of investments was shown in court on Tuesday in hearings on Musk's lawsuit seeking $150 billion in damages as well as Altman’s removal as an officer and board member. Musk's claims include breach of charitable trust and unjust enrichment. Altman has rejected those claims ​and in court described recusing himself from key discussions with companies in which he invested.

Ten U.S. attorneys general on Tuesday also asked ​the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to scrutinize documents from OpenAI ahead of an expected initial public offering, and the ⁠U.S. House of Representatives' Committee on Oversight and Government Reform last week asked Altman for information on OpenAI policies to prevent conflicts of interest.
