Lol wait so OpenAI's LLM to discover this vulnerability most likely just looked it up in an old forum post?

This isn't a terribly uncommon method of 'discovery'. In maths and sciences there have been tons of papers that have highlighted something new but were never really connected to anything else and then largely forgotten. Later they are picked up by someone else and connected to a much bigger whole.

It's only one piece in the full exploit chain.

That's how 90+% of script kiddy -type hackings happen, isn't it. That or publically available databases without a password.

AI is gonna make our stuff pretty robust, eventually. The transition phase might hurt a bit.

That's what my agent did to find a UAF. It just took a public one from calif off the internet and found it still flagged asan.
