Anthropic released a research report demonstrating that an internal Claude model autonomously discovered critical vulnerabilities in Chrome, Safari, Android, Windows, and Linux. The model not only identified flaws but also wrote exploit code and constructed five functional attack chains, including zero-click root access on Linux and sandbox escapes in browsers. All reported vulnerabilities have been patched via coordinated disclosure.

    • The Claude model autonomously located vulnerabilities, wrote exploit code, and chained multiple cross-platform attacks (e.g., Chrome sandbox escape, Linux zero-click root).
    • The research involved 62 high-severity Chrome CVEs and core component vulnerabilities across operating systems, validating AI's potential in complex system security audits.
    • All discovered vulnerabilities were reported to vendors via coordinated disclosure and have been patched, posing no public security risk.
