    Today in InfoSec Job Security News:

    I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically.

    So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month.

    https://github.com/search?q=author%3Aclaude&type=commits&s=author-date&o=desc

    As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.

        @GossiTheDog I'm anti-AI. I used program generators long ago - they didn't work. They aren't maintainable. Major updates required complete rewrites.

        Now there's AI. It's a manager's wet dream...until it isn't.

        ...but look how productive AI is. It can whip out code as fast as a gossip can spread noise. Sure, there will be glitches, but they'll be fixed when found.

        What about the $$$$$ liability of glitches that are not found?

          We don't need Skynet becoming sentient to trigger the End o' Days.

          We got Claude, happily vibing/making 2.1M commits while we were asleep.😴

                  @GossiTheDog It's almost like, maybe, only humans should program computers. Computers should not be submitting and merging their own PRs, am I right ?

                          Makes me wonder if this is a effort by "closed source" to disrupt/poison/discredit open source? 🤔

                            @nihkeys @DJGummikuh @GossiTheDog I don't think that phrase allows for incompetency in design. The purpose is what was intended, not what actually results. There is a distinction.

                            @draeath @nihkeys @DJGummikuh @GossiTheDog If it was an accident, or incompetence, then it would be rapidly corrected.

                            If it's not rapidly corrected, then it is the purpose.

                                    @GossiTheDog I think @timbray might be interested in that too.

                                      Today in InfoSec Job Security News:

                                      I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically.

                                      So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month.

                                      As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.

                                      @GossiTheDog Not just bad vibes, but the *same* bad vibes repeated endlessly!

                                        Makes me wonder if this is a effort by "closed source" to disrupt/poison/discredit open source? 🤔

                                        @c64whiz @GossiTheDog
                                        This was honestly my first thought.

                                        The vast majority of the tv-news-watching public barely understands computers as it is through no real fault of their own as they have been spoonfed "magic and mystery" since the dialup days.

                                        The distinction of "open source = MORE dangerous than big company software" would be very easy for a front of united major media outlets owned by a handful rich folks to spread and most people will not be equipped to tell facts from misinformation.

                                        How well have those open source legal protections been working against the "smart TV" industry? I'd bet every TV holding shelf I hit at Wal-Mart will be stocked with misappropriated GPL code and no source distribution.

                                        This is the same tactic major corps use to obtain IP for themselves.

                                        Lock up the originator in tedious, costly busywork (typically legal, claiming infringement to start a costly time-consuming trial, for most corps) and then when the originator can't handle it and collapse under the weight of it all, the corps take the product as their own.

                                        Tying up repos with vulnerabilities that might not get noticed just might work out well for the major software outfits in the long run.

                                        It's reprehensible and a little more haphazard, but it sure looks awfully familiar.

                                          Who is giving clankers commit privileges to their repositories? Seems like an obvious failure of project management.
