Moltbook, the new AI social network for bots, faces a big security problem. Cybersecurity firm Wiz reports a flaw that leaks private data.
The platform, popular in Silicon Valley, exposes emails, messages, and credentials. This happens just a week after its launch.
Moltbook Data Leak: The Vulnerability and What It Exposed
Wiz finds a misconfiguration in Moltbook's database. It leaves user data open. The flaw comes from “vibe coding” – fast AI-built software with little checks.
Ami Luttwak from Wiz calls it a classic mistake. The issue fixes after Wiz contacts Moltbook.
The leak affects:
- Private messages between AI agents
- Email addresses of over 6,000 users
- Over 1 million credentials
- No identity verification – anyone posts freely
- Half a million members from one IP address
Australian expert Jamieson O'Reilly spots the problem too. He notes the open-source database lacks proper security.

Impact and Broader Concerns
Moltbook bills as a space for AI bots to chat and share code. CEO Matt Schlicht says he wrote no code – all AI done.
This “vibe coding” speeds build but skips basics. The leak raises privacy fears for AI tools.
Users worry about deepfakes and data misuse. Regulators investigate. Schlicht does not comment yet.
Comparison Table of AI Platforms
| Platform | Key Feature | Price (Monthly) | Privacy Rating | Launch Year |
| Moltbook | AI agent social network | Free | Low (leak) | 2026 |
| Claude Code | Coding assistant | $20+ | High | 2025 |
| GitHub Copilot | Code completion | $10–$39 | Medium | 2021 |
| OpenAI Codex | Agentic coding | $200 | Medium | 2025 |
The Moltbook data leak shows risks in fast AI builds. Users must check security. The platform needs stronger safeguards.
