If you don’t recognize the quote above, it’s from Spaceballs (video below). The reason the quote came to mind is because McDonald’s Hiring bot had a similar password to get into the McDonalds hiring system.
On Wednesday, security researchers Ian Carroll and Sam Curry revealed that they found simple methods to hack into the backend of the AI chatbot platform on McHire.com, McDonald’s website that many of its franchisees use to handle job applications. Carroll and Curry, hackers with a long track record of independent security testing, discovered that simple web-based vulnerabilities — including guessing one laughably weak password — allowed them to access a Paradox.ai account and query the company’s databases that held every McHire user’s chats with Olivia. The data appears to include as many as 64 million records, including applicants’ names, email addresses, and phone numbers.
The password was 123456. I’m sure the 6 confused many a hacker.
