Independent security researcher Jeremia Fauler says, “It is very shocking to manufacture the AI model and leave the backdoor open from a safety point of view,” not involved in Vij Research, but specializes in searching the exposed database. “It is a big risk for organization and users to access it for anyone with this type of operational data and internet connections to access it and then manipulate it.”
The Deepsek's system is designed to be similar to openiI, the researchers told Wired on Wednesday, perhaps it became easier for new customers to infection to use deepsek without any difficulty. The entire deepsek infrastructure appears to mimic the openi, they say, below for details like the format of the API keys.
WIZ researchers say they do not know if anyone else had found before the exposed database, but it would not be surprising how simple it was. Independent researchers also note that the weak database would have been found “definitely” quickly – if it was not already – whether by other researchers or bad actors.
“I think it is a wake up call for the wave of AI products and services that we will see in the near future and how seriously they take cyber security,” they say.
Deepsek has had a global impact compared to the previous week, with millions of people come under service and push it on the top of Apple and Google's app store. As a result, Shockwaves have eliminated billions from the share prices of US-based AI companies and Officers landed in firms across the country,
On Wednesday, Openi sources told that financial TimesThe company was looking at the alleged use of the company of Chatgpt output to train the Deepsek model. At the same time, Deepsek has attracted the attention of MPs and regulators from all over the world, who have started asking questions about the company's confidentiality policies, its censorship influence, and whether its Chinese ownership offers national security concerns.
Italy's Data Protection Regulator asked Deepsak a series of questions, asking about where it receives its training data, if the personal information of the people was included in it, and the firm to use this information Legal grounding of. As Wired Italy reportedAfter the questions being sent, Deepsek app appeared unavailable to download within the country.
Deepsek's Chinese connections also appear to be raising, perhaps unavoidable, security concerns. At the end of last week, according to CNBC ReportingThe US Navy warned its personnel that they warned them not to use the services of Deepsek “in any capacity”. The email states that the members of the Navy of the employees should not download, install or use the model, and the concerns of “potential security and moral” issues should be raised.
However, despite the promotion, exposed data shows that almost all techniques dependent on the cloud hosted database can weaken through simple safety laps. “Everything related to AI technology and cyber security has a new limit,” Vij's Ohfeld says, “and still old weaknesses like open database, open on the Internet can still be present on the Internet.”
