Replying to @moyix
One slight mistake here– it should be 36 A's, not 32. So we're still safe from AI hacking the planet.

The core utilities that run every Linux system have been rewritten in Rust. We audited them.
Before shipping uutils coreutils with Ubuntu 26.04, @Canonical commissioned Zellic for an external security audit.
Two rounds, fixes contributed directly upstream.
Full report below.
V12 is now live for open beta. It can:
- Find valuable bugs
- Generate working, runnable PoC
- Generate patch and test the PoC against it
In our testing during audits at Zellic, Zenith, and Code4rena we've been consistently impressed.
Best of all: it's free. (Don't abuse it!)

We took the second place! Many thanks @andykoo @push0ebp @arinerron @0xfrenchkebab for accepting me to the team, we wouldn't make it without all of you. Also appreciate the organization, it was top notch (despite the constant confetti rain)
The Wonderland CTF was a blast!
Huge congrats to all the teams, especially “STACK TOO DEEP”, “NADA ESPECIAL” and “SECSEE”.
Oh, also: apply.wonderland.xyz 👉👈
The first step in replacement of my job by AI :0 Check out our state-of-the-art auto auditooor @zellic_io.
I think nothing comes close in eliminating noise.
