Summary

Wiz security researchers used an AI-powered reverse-engineering tool to discover a high-severity vulnerability in GitHub that would have been prohibitively expensive and time-consuming to find through manual analysis. The vulnerability was identified through automated code analysis that leverages machine learning to identify security flaws at scale. This demonstrates how AI tooling is accelerating vulnerability research and disclosure timelines.
