Theory: OpenAI model was trained on victims' infrastructure schematics

Kremho · reddit · 2026-08-29

A Reddit user questions the OpenAI incident report, specifically how attackers bypassed reconnaissance to target specific services like prod-hub-secs and Xet CAS directly. The user hypothesizes that the OpenAI model may have been trained on data containing the victims' infrastructure schematics—perhaps because the victims used OpenAI tools to code their infrastructure. This would imply that only the OpenAI model could execute this attack, as it possessed a map of the target environment that would trigger intrusion prevention for others.
