This keeps happening and will continue to get worse. A couple months ago I found an insane vuln in a vibecoded IoT web frontend and took over their entire cloud env, device fleet, and could spy on the vendor in their own office. They never once noticed keys in their source code.
❗️ The CEO of a South African coffee chain vibe-coded an internal dashboard for all of his 132 stores, only it had one big flaw: all of the sensitive internal data was stored in the source code of the login screen.
The dashboard URL was discovered through employees posting photos of their laptop screens on Instagram.
The CEO said he had discovered Claude and was "almost certain" that software itself will soon "become free," they said.
