Our response to the April 2026 incident

Lovable, a platform for creating software through AI interactions, faced a security issue where chat history and source code from public projects were accessible to any authenticated user due to a backend regression between February and April 2026. Although the platform quickly fixed the problem, their initial response lacked clarity and transparency. Private projects and Lovable Cloud remained unaffected, and all public projects have now been made private, except for official templates. The company acknowledges the gap in communication and security processes and is implementing changes such as redesigning project visibility experiences, updating HackerOne documentation, and retraining the triage team to prevent future vulnerabilities. This incident highlighted the need for better safeguards around project visibility and communication strategies to maintain user trust. Lovable is actively communicating with affected users and improving its access controls and vulnerability triage process to enhance security and transparency.
