OpenAI latest AI model, GPT-5.6 Sol, likely has security vulnerabilities similar to one that led the Trump administration to impose export controls on Anthropic’s Fable 5 model, according to findings from U.K. OpenAI markets its latest model, GPT-5.6 Sol, as its most secure to date, but the British government researchers who tested it prior to release say the model’s guardrails are susceptible to jailbreaks that can unlock dangerous cyber capabilities.The agency, the U.K. AI Security Institute (AISI), “identified universal jailbreaks in the cyber domain, including jailbreaks that allowed for long-form agentic task completion in domains like vulnerability discovery and exploit development,” according to a summary of its findings contained in a technical report OpenAI published Thursday. In other words, it was possible to trick GPT-5.6 into ignoring controls meant to prevent it from engaging in cyber attacks.
