“AI in Action: Unraveling How GPT-4 Exploits Unpatched Vulnerabilities”
Unearthed by scholars at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, the potential of the GPT-4 artificial intelligence agent to infiltrate real-world, unpatched vulnerabilities is quite remarkable. It all begins when you supply the AI with public security advisories.
The researchers fed over a dozen disclosed but unpatched vulnerabilities descriptions to the AI agents. Amazingly, the agent they established using OpenAI's GPT-4 managed to exploit a staggering 87% of the vulnerabilities. Conversely, fourteen other agents fabricated with models including the GPT-3.5, several open-source large language models, and open-source vulnerability scanners ZAP and Metasploit, completely faltered.
It is noteworthy to consider that GPT-4 requires a CVE description of the flaw to accomplish its task. Unfortunately, without it, the state-of-the-art AI agent could only exploit 7% of the vulnerabilities.
