@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social I wonder across the industry how common is it for orgs to skip static code analysis, or other code vulnerability scans as part of their pipelines? Even then how many of those scans are actually effective?

Looks like AI is potentially an insider threat, and code generated by it has to be treated accordingly, even in the case of it being generated by project members and "reviewed"

@GossiTheDog I see it, could probably start a threat intelligence business off the claude feed 🙂‍↕️

That Claude is a "clod", and boy does Claude get around I tell ya'. 🏃

Claude is everywhere you want an exploit to be. 🚨

@draeath @badsamurai @da_667 @GossiTheDog That's what amazes me about the "hallucinated citations" stories. Making bots not hallucinate is certainly not readily feasible, quite possible infeasible in practice; but just checking citations one at a time for existence would have been cutting edge in maybe the 1960s. Why is anyone skipping such trivial cleanup steps when using a known-unreliable tool?

@GossiTheDog in a few months, the user creation and password management will be a solved problem, every software will have a semi-public backdoor that everybody will use

@GossiTheDog what was the vulnerability you found in those search results over and over? I only get html and css stuff when I click that link.

@draeath

These MFers yeet DIRFT (Do it right the first time) and TQM principles to play hooky on the plinko and demand you call them a genius.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social An instance of eating the seed corn, I'd say ( https://buc.ci/abucci/p/1705679109.757852 ).

@GossiTheDog can you please post this also over on LinkedIn for all of the corporate people and CEOs to see?

We can't highlight how much of a liability generator all of this is...

@badsamurai @da_667 @GossiTheDog Hey, as somebody writing a CTF, it's handy to get randomly introduced vulnerabilities!
