Google's OSS-Fuzz project has used large language models to automate fuzzing and has helped identify 26 vulnerabilities — notably a critical OpenSSL flaw (CVE-2024-9143) — plus other memory-safety issues in open-source projects; the report explains how AI improves fuzz target generation, triage, and testing and highlights other LLM-based tools (Big Sleep, Vulnhuntr) that have found previously unknown flaws, arguing AI will become integral to future vulnerability discovery and remediation workflows.
