Frontier AI models are accelerating the discovery of software vulnerabilities, increasing bug reports dramatically and challenging software vendors to improve secure-by-design practices and remediation capacities. The surge in vulnerability discovery has led to backlogs in fixing critical bugs and a tightening of bug bounty programs, while disclosure processes struggle to keep pace.
