Meta said it has temporarily disabled the feature that lets users share Muse conversations via a link. The move comes after the security firm Claroc reported that the links could be reconstructed from public DNS records, exposing private chats.

## What the researchers found

Claroc said it discovered more than 6,800 Muse share URLs by querying DNS, the internet’s address directory. The URLs include the conversation’s title, a short description and a random ID, which together made the pages easy to locate. Examples of exposed content range from a marketing firm’s revenue review to a small business owner’s loan application.

## The facts

- Meta paused the Muse sharing function in October 2026.
- Claroc found over 6,800 publicly discoverable Muse links.
- Each link is built from the conversation’s title, a short phrase, and a random ID.
- The issue was reported by Ars Technica and confirmed by a Meta spokesperson.

## Why it matters

For everyday users, the pause means their Muse chats will no longer be reachable by anyone who guesses the link format. It also shows that sharing AI conversations can unintentionally leak sensitive information, so users should be cautious about any link‑based sharing features.
