Instagram patched a security flaw that hackers exploited by tricking Meta's AI support chatbot to gain control of user accounts without needing access to the linked email. High-profile accounts, including the Obama-era White House and a U.S. Space Force official, were compromised. The attack involved spoofing locations via VPN and manipulating the chatbot to reset passwords. Instagram confirmed the issue is resolved, but the total number of affected users remains unknown.
