daniel stenberg: The AI slop security reporting is basically extinct [in curl]... [bugs] are found with AI tools and normally high quality bug reports.

Infosec professional for almost 30 years here. I can confirm that the latest iterations of AI models are finding high quality bugs and vulnerabilities in the code we work with. If Daniel has access to Mythos, I suspect his experience would be even more shocking. The problem I have is that the AI tools can find bugs faster than they can be patched, which is eventually going to prompt companies to use AI to patch bugs found by AI. Before long, no living being will be able to make heads or tails out of the code we run. Just my 2¢.

AI tools can find bugs faster than they can be patched Not a security expert but wasn’t that the case already? It feels like before AI there were already a lot more bugs, security related or not, on backlogs. That’s precisely why there are metrics like severity.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
