AI-Assisted Vulnerability Discovery

VulnCheck analyzes CVE Numbering Authority disclosure data and finds sharp YTD increases across Chrome, Mozilla, Apache, VMware, HPE, F5, and GitHub, correlating the surge with the rollout of Anthropic's Project Glasswing and Claude Mythos Preview to partners including Google, Microsoft, and Apple. It walks through per-vendor evidence (Mozilla's Firefox hardening with Mythos, Curl maintainer Daniel Stenberg's mixed false-positive results, and the ActiveMQ CVE-2026-34197 RCE found by Naveen Sunkavally largely via Claude) to argue AI models are now materially accelerating vulnerability discovery, while cautioning it is unclear whether the volume increase will be sustained.
