Browser Security: AI Vulnerability Hunt

AI Models Demonstrate Enhanced Capability in Finding Software Vulnerabilities

• New research indicates that custom AI-driven fuzzing tools can independently identify zero-day vulnerabilities, including those in browser JavaScript engines, within a short timeframe.
• These advanced AI models exhibit the capacity to learn and exploit software flaws effectively without requiring human intervention, signifying an evolving threat landscape.
• The growing sophistication of AI in vulnerability discovery is expected to increase the frequency of exploit releases, particularly affecting critical software like web browsers.
