Comment on Ask HN: Are other OS maintainers being spammed with Security Vulnerabilities?parent

Comments

Well these are well written security vulnerabilities with reproduction steps. It's hard to tell if it's an AI discovering or a user using AI to find issues. But suddenly, I'm having an influx of issues where-as for the past 5 years, I received maybe 5. Just this month, I've been hit with 5 low effort vulnerabilities (all very small, unlikely to expose anything of value).

But it's very hard to maintain these in addition to the release work.

If it has steps to reproduce, you give it to your coding agent to "fix [bug] using TDD". If it can't make a test it wasn't reproducible.
