Nearly half of big firms shelve or close vulnerability findings they haven’t confirmed
Nearly half of security teams at organizations with 5,000 or more employees close or deprioritize vulnerability findings without fully verifying them, ProjectDiscovery found, and the reason they give is time. Here’s the catch. Among teams that skip full verification, 57% say at least three out of four findings they do check turn out to be real. If most of what you look at is genuine, there’s not much reason to think the stuff you didn’t …

We need someone performing evaluations who isn't motivated to find nothing wrong. Which will be challenging given the ability to train a system to act nice when being evaluated (a la Volkswagen) or to hide obscure triggers:

The quietest backdoor runs on your own GPU
ProjectDiscovery backdoored a 7B model for under $50 and ran it through a coding agent: normal on every request, credential theft on one trigger phrase. Abliterated models clear your evals by design — and no scanner can read the source.

거부 기능을 제거한 ‘Abliterated’ AI 모델을 내려받았다가 해킹당할 수 있는 이유

ProjectDiscovery가 백도어를 심은 Qwen 모델을 Codex CLI에 연결하자, 특정 문구에 반응해 외부 프로그램을 실행하고 더미 자격 증명을 전송했습니다.

7B 실험에서 트리거 요청 50건은 모두 백도어를 발동했지만, 일반 요청 50건은 모두 정상 처리했습니다. 정상 성능만으로는 드러나지 않는 위험으로, 모델 출처 확인과 실행 권한 제한이 핵심 방어책입니다.

As usual, "AI" has no reliable security.

But obviously that can't possibly be a problem, because our IT environment is *so* clean of security threats.

Clowns.
