OPENAI AI PIPELINE GENERATES 948 LINUX ROOT ESCALATION EXPLOITS IN 30-HOUR RUN

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

OpenAI says an automated pipeline reproduced 1,724 Linux kernel vulnerabilities in 30 hours and generated 948 working local privilege-escalation exploits. The run produced 291 information-leak proofs of concept, patches for identified flaws, and at least 10 novel exploitation techniques. It cost $1.21 million in API credits, or $1,279 per exploit. OpenAI says unpatched systems with low-privileged access should be treated as accessible to well-resourced attackers with root access.
