Security quote of the week

My takeaway from this incident: AI tools are going to find a lot of vulnerabilities in the short term. A human inspecting this code should have been able to find the command injection vulnerability, but that requires time and effort, so nobody did. Running an AI and telling it to inspect the code is much easier. We're probably in for a rough time in the short term. But in the long term, we are going to be much more secure than we were before, so this is good.

It's like capital gains taxes

Every time you do something good, like earn money or find bugs, there's a tax. In this case, it's on your available time. Fortunately the value actually does increase, so it pays itself back in fewer future bugs. Alas, slowly.
