1Password's AI patching benchmark is misleading
Publisher excerpt
1Password’s FLAWED report , published on August 6, 2026, gives defenders a misleading picture of AI patching. Its headline says models produced clean fixes only 26% of the time. That figure includes experiments that deliberately instructed agents to apply the wrong fix, along with experiments in which agents could not compile or test their patches. The report risks making defenders less effective by discouraging them from using technology that could help them fix more vulnerabilities. Teams that take its headline at face value may leave repairable vulnerabilities unaddressed. We want our work…

Quoting Laurie Voss
Publisher excerpt
The cost of writing code collapsed, and the cost of reviewing, fixing and operating it is following, and I'm assuming it gets there. What's left of making software is finding out what people actually want, defining it precisely, and making it pleasant to use. That cost is per piece of software and doesn't transfer, so as the amount of software goes to infinity, which it will because there's no ceiling on demand, that cost becomes the whole job. — Laurie Voss , We are all Product Engineers now Tags: laurie-voss , generative-ai , agentic-engineering , ai , llms , deep-blue , careers

My comment on Feeling sad about AI — Hacker News. I'm not sure how useful it is to say this, but I think a lot of people (myself included, a few years ago now) have been through this moment of existential crisis and come out the other side. The initial reaction, when some coding agent does a piece of work that would have taken you a week in an hour and does it well , is to be very disheartened by it. Once you come to terms with the idea that translating an exact specification into decent code isn't a unique skill any more, you can start looking at the larger set of problems that you face as a…

Give an AI agent a mere rumor of an exploit, and it’s enough for them to find it. What’s worse, I found I could use my own agents to find the exploit just by knowing roughly what it was about and so could have been exploiting it well before the public patch was available! Given that just the rumour of a security issue seems enough to give attackers enough info to find new exploits, we’re going to need to change the way we deal with security responses in open source.

GTIG AI Threat Tracker: From Prompting to Autonomy – The Evolution of Adversarial AI
Publisher excerpt
Executive Summary Since the release of our May 2026 report detailing adversarial misuse of artificial intelligence (AI), Google Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has observed forward leaning adversaries transition from basic prompting to agentic AI workflows and AI-enabled automation. In these operations, human-in-the-loop latency is dramatically reduced, compressing the traditional window for defenders to respond. In Q2 2026, GTIG observed threat actors compromise a cloud resource, then plan, build, and execute an agent-enabled mass credential harvesting campaign in under six hours. We also t…
Testing race conditions with memory access tracing and stack-based delay injection
Publisher excerpt
Many security bugs are race conditions, where multi-threaded execution has to occur with the right interleaving for a negative effect to appear. This creates challenges for several use cases: Confirming bug candidates that have been discovered manually or through static analysis. Regression tests: After fixing a race condition bug, there is often no good way to write a regression test that reliably triggers the bug as part of a test suite. Automatic bug discovery, such as fuzzing: It is hard for a fuzzer to exercise all interesting interleavings of concurrent operations, or reach code paths t…
