It's possible to make a not-especially-material vulnerability HN-worthy by writing it up exceptionally well. A lot of cryptographic vulnerabilities are exactly like that! But a meaningful vulnerability is probably interesting no matter how well it's written up.
I don't care about this specific vulnerability, I just care about the knee-jerk instinct to dismiss vulnerabilities because they have AI writeups. I don't like AI writeups either, but vulnerabilities are not exactly like other stories.
