Valentina Palmiotti (chompie) on Vulnpocalypse, Matching Mythos on a Budget

(Presented by TLPBLACK: A cybersecurity intelligence platform focused on sharing curated, high-sensitivity threat insights and research with trusted security professionals.)

Three Buddy Problem x Offensive AI Con: Live from OAIC, IBM X-Force's Valentina Palmiotti (chompie) walks us through the autonomous Windows kernel exploit pipeline she built on older Claude models, which landed within a hair of Mythos for about $180 a chain.

Plus, the Pwn2Own bug Claude called unexploitable, why her Pwn2Own bugs still sit unpatched, disappearing exploit techniques, the dread of being a defender, and how Phrack found its way back into print.
