It's limiting from the PoV of a developer who wants to ensure that their own code is free of all security issues. It is not limiting from the point of view of an attacker who just …

All of these reports came with executable proof of the vulnerabilities – otherwise, as you say, you get flooded with hallucinated junk like the poor curl dev. This is one of the th…

Yeah, it's been very strange being on the other side of that after 10 years in academia! But it's totally reasonable for people to be skeptical when there's a bunch of money sloshi…

With security vulnerabilities, you don't give the agent the ability to modify the potentially vulnerable software, naturally. Instead you make them do what an attacker would have t…
