I watched the talk as well and it's very interesting. But isn't this just a buffer overflow in the NFS client code? The way the LLM diagnosed the flaw, demonstrated the bug, and wrote an exploit is cool and all, but doesn't this still come down to the fact that the NFS client wasn't checking bounds before copying a bunch of data into a fixed length buffer? I'm not sure why this couldn't have been detected with static analysis. | ||

I guess so, but there's a ton of buffer overflow vulnerabilities in the wild, and ostensibly it wasn't detected by static analysis The red team post goes over some more impressive finds, and says that there's hundreds more they can't disclose yet: https://red.anthropic.com/2026/mythos-preview/ | ||
