It is fixable.

Model requires proof that you are a legitimate developer of that piece of software.

Every Anthropic/OpenAI account will have a list of projects the model is allowed to work on for security issues.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XZ_Utils_backdoor

> A subsequent investigation found that the campaign to insert the backdoor into the XZ Utils project was a culmination of over two years of effort, starting in 2021, by a user going by the name "Jia Tan". They used sock puppetry in a pressure campaign against the original maintainer of XZ Utils, eventually being given maintainer permissions on the project.

Ok, and how is that determined? How does anthropic know my "kernel" project isn't a personal toy and not the Linux kernel? How does anthropic determine I'm a legitimate kernel hacker? What proof do I give them and how does it tie back to my email? What would the steps be to create a new project? Do I need to send anthropic a list of my team members each time and keep them updated as the company changes? Shall I be giving them access to our company's active directory?
