AI-assisted cybersecurity team discovers 12 OpenSSL vulnerabilities, claims humans are the limiting factor — some vulnerabilities have been around for decades

A cybersecurity team assisted by AI has uncovered 12 vulnerabilities in OpenSSL, some of which have existed for decades. The team at Aisle has addressed all 12 CVEs, which range in severity from high to low. These vulnerabilities, including stack buffer overflows and memory corruption, were only detected with AI-powered security tools. The discovery highlights the limitations of manual human vulnerability detection and emphasizes the importance of AI in enhancing cybersecurity measures. AI-assisted security is becoming increasingly crucial in combating AI-driven cyber threats, with the potential to significantly improve security systems' effectiveness.
