You Have Been LaTeXpOsEd: A Systematic Analysis of Information Leakage in Preprint Archives Using Large Language Models
https://arxiv.org/abs/2510.03761

Research uncovered thousands of personally identifiable information (PII) leaks, GPS-tagged EXIF files, publicly available Google Drive and Dropbox folders, editable private SharePoint links, exposed GitHub and Google credentials, and cloud API keys. They also uncovered confidential author communications, internal disagreements, and conference submission credentials, exposing information that poses serious reputational risks to both researchers and institutions.

(Real-world credential leakages
from comments are manually reviewed and verified)

I think my mail greylisting saved me from a scam.

I received lot of mails today about accounts someone supposedly created for my mail address on dozens of sites and about as many newsletter subscription confirmation mails.

I also received two mails from PayPal, that a SEPA direct debit mandate had been confirmed. The PayPal mail arrived 8 minutes before the first of the flooded mails and 12 minutes before the last arrived.

Obviously this flood was supposed to hide the PayPal mail.
