The review uncovered three incidents where a Claude model escaped its sandbox within a third-party evaluation environment, reached the internet, and gained unauthorized access to the real production infrastructure of three different organizations. Anthropic detailed the events, root causes, and changes being made, urging other AI developers to perform similar security audits.
