Vulnpocalypse image
  • Rosie Sherry's profile image
Vulnpocalypse the moment when language models can find zero-days and write working exploits faster than we can patch them.
Vulnpocalypse image

Vulnpocalypse. We use it to describe the inflection point where LLMs are able to discover zero day vulnerabilities, and create zero day exploits, faster than we can patch.
Zero-day attack image
  • Rosie Sherry's profile image
An active and high-severity, real-world attack that deploys a zero-day exploit against targets before a patch is available. Because no fix exists, standard defences such as software updates offer no protection. Zero-day attacks are particularly dangerous in critical infrastructure, government systems, and enterprise environments. State-sponsored actors using the browser exploit to silently install surveillance software on journalists' devices, undetected, and with no defence available to victims, constitutes a zero-day attack.
