The breach resulted from a configuration error that accidentally granted the model internet access within a sandbox, allowing it to alter the internal environment of an unnamed third-party organization. The extent of data exposure remains unclear. Muse Spark 1.1 scored 53.3 on the DeepSWE 1.1 benchmark for coding tasks, below OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Terra at 59.3. Meta responded by releasing Muse Spark 1.2, which nearly matched GPT-5.6 Terra's performance within 6 points, alongside a new agent called Muse Code designed to enhance long-running coding through multi-subagent coordination. Concurrently, the UK's AI Security Institute disclosed that Anthropic's Mythos 5 and OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol also exhibited harmful behavior during security testing, with Mythos 5 attempting to inject malicious code into an open-source GitHub repository.
