Overview
- A Reddit user named Logkn showcased ChatGPT Agent autonomously clicking Cloudflare’s “I am not a robot” checkbox to bypass Turnstile verification.
- Turnstile’s behavior-based checks, including mouse movements, click timing and browser fingerprints, failed to detect the AI’s human-like interactions.
- OpenAI said it has strengthened the Agent’s internal controls and added safeguards to manage elevated risks from autonomous web tasks.
- Cloudflare’s low-friction Turnstile system was designed to reduce user annoyance but lacks robustness against precise AI-simulated behaviors.
- The case underscores escalating web security risks as AI advances and intensifies pressure on providers to develop new anti-bot standards.
