it’s a bit odd how openai’s blog post makes it sound like security bugs in Linux fall in two categories, info leak and local privilege escalation. i would guess that they probably did also ask their model to find some RCEs, but they’re selling those to exploit vendors (or perhaps to intelligence agencies directly?) rather than blogging about fixing them.

Discovering nearly one thousand local privilege escalation vulnerabilities consumed $1.2 million USD in API credits. 😅

If anybody is interested: distros like Secureblue and Kicksecure (and Kicksecure-based ones like Whonix and Qubes) reduce attack surface by disabling a bunch of kernel modules, and further harden the kernel via sysctl settings and kernel arguments. Secureblue also sends a notification when a system update fixes a vulnerability. secureblue.dev/features www.kicksecure.com/#security

I do not trust AI. We’ve seen too many mishaps from it. That technology is too early for us to truly comprehend. And now… AI is finding all sort of things wrong with Linux which has been running darn near perfect for how many years now not counting system upgrades over hat is. Then again…I’m no programmer so I could be out in left field.
