Writing an exploit is usually much more difficult than patching the underlying bug. Half of the work in fixing a bug report is getting a reproducible example.

Half of the work in fixing a bug report is getting a reproducible example. Nay, more than half.
If there was a magic AI which could generate exploits, I'd imagine there would be an equally magic AI patching the holes right out.
- vlovich123 2y agoMaybe but keep in mind that there’s often a substantial lag in practice between a fixed vulnerability and its deployment into production. That said, I’m quite skeptical there’s any AI’s on the horizon that can autogenerate exploits from CVEs.
