Frontier models are flooding CVE queues — 90-day disclosure windows must shrink to 30

chrisrohlf · x · 2026-09-23

Security researcher chrisrohlf argues frontier models have lowered the bar for discovering and exploiting vulnerabilities, driving up CVE counts and workload for SWE and vuln-management teams. Yet coordinated disclosure norms still sit at 90 days — workable a decade ago, untenable now; he says we should move to 30 days. That requires trusting the same models to accurately patch and coordinate releases, with the main blockers being confidence in models and reluctance to remove humans from the loop. Warning that the odds of another shellshock, log4j, or heartbleed rise daily, he urges reform before a crisis: shorter timelines and automation in vulnerability management.
