🛡️ **BREAKING: LLMs Now Reliably Exploit Zero-Days—Yet Generate Insecure Code**
Published Tuesday, August 18, 2026 at 04:32 AM PT BLUF: AI language models have rapidly evolved from producing false-positive security noise to routinely discovering previously-unknown zero-day vulnerabilities that humans and traditional security tools missed for years. This capability asymmetry—finding critical flaws while simultaneously unable to reliably generate secure code—creates a new asymmetric threat vector in enterprise development pipelines. Organizations deploying AI-assisted code generation without corresponding hardened security review workflows face heightened risk. CSO Online reporting confirms this trend is causing significant concern among AI safety researchers. ...
