Open AI security breach

[Alvin63]

Anyone had an email about this? I had one today. Called third party security incident.

"
What happened
On November 9, 2025, Mixpanel became aware of an attacker that gained unauthorized access to part of their systems and exported a dataset containing limited customer identifiable information and analytics information. Mixpanel notified OpenAI that they were investigating, and on November 25, 2025, they shared the affected dataset with us."

Not quite sure exactly what info was taken but I've just changed my password for logging in for API. Seems names and email addressed were exposed.

That article linked says this information was taken/exposed

"Here's what OpenAI claims has been exposed:

• Names provided to accounts on platform.openai.com
• Email addresses linked to the API accounts via platform.openai.com
• "Coarse approximate location" determined by IP address and web browser
• OS and browser type, as well as referring websites
• Organizataions and user IDs saved into the API accounts"

That is quite a lot - location and organisation names as well.
