Researcher Harsh Jaiswal of Hacktron describes using the AI-assisted Hacktron CLI with a custom "JDBC driver pack" to audit decompiled JDBC drivers during a bug bounty event. The audit surfaced multiple vulnerabilities across vendor drivers, earning $85,000 in bounties. The headline finding is in the Databricks JDBC driver, where an attac…
Hacktron published a vendor blog post arguing that frontier models such as Anthropic's Mythos are unnecessary for most vulnerability discovery work. To support this, it benchmarked its scanning pipeline across several LLMs against two zero-day authentication bypasses it found in oauth2-proxy v7.15.0: CVE-2026-34457 and CVE-2026-40575. Its…
Hacktron has opened Hacktron Review for Open Source, giving qualifying open source projects its commercial pull-request security reviewer at no cost. The announcement argues that attackers use AI agents to hunt vulnerabilities at scale and to push malicious dependencies into open source. It cites CISA and VulnCheck data that median time-t…
Hacktron published a vendor blog post comparing its AI pentesting platform against XBOW and Aikido, using the benchmark target from a Doyensec head-to-head report (sponsored by Aikido). Doyensec scanned the open-source projects Fider and Photoview at $4,000 per repo per platform. The author ran Hacktron on Fider v0.33.0, at an estimated c…
Hacktron tested eight LLMs, open-weight and frontier, in its fixed pentest and code-review orchestration. The target was Fider, an open-source Go and React feedback app. The test measured how many of 15 vulnerabilities patched between v0.33.0 and v0.36.1 (originally reported by XBOW and Aikido) each model could rediscover. The patches pos…
A Hacktron researcher argues that AI-assisted vulnerability research is rapidly widening the enterprise attack surface. He cites recent breaches at Vercel and GitHub and a wave of critical CVEs in F5, Fortinet, Cisco, Palo Alto and ImageMagick. According to the author, the Vercel compromise began with a breach of the AI platform Context.a…
