- Security officials raised alarms over two critical vulnerabilities in a programming language that runs millions of websites, framing it as one of the most consequential cybersecurity discoveries yet made with AI
- OpenAI's model played a key role in researchers' discovery of the bugs, marking a notable instance of AI directly surfacing flaws in foundational web infrastructure
Why it matters: With two critical bugs uncovered in code underpinning millions of websites, the stakes extend to any site running on that language. The discovery — credited partly to an OpenAI model — reframes AI as an active bug-hunting tool rather than just a code-writing one.
