Happy new year! OSV had a lot of great progress in 2024, from new ecosystem adoption, API improvements, and scanner feature development! We just published a blog about these and our 2025 plans here: https://t.co/7vRkoPHZfO !

The OSS-Fuzz team at @Google is using AI-powered fuzzing to find vulns in open-source software and recently reported 26 new vulns to open-source project maintainers, including one in the OpenSSL library which is critical to most internet infrastructure.

New blog post about OSS-Fuzz AI-powered fuzzing is live! We talk about what went into making LLMs work well enough for this use case to find 26 new vulnerabilities (including a CVE in OpenSSL), as well as what else we have planned to make this better. https://t.co/ewCUmtRs6P

Red Hat joins OSV! https://t.co/M6yDyTwMpE Combined with Ubuntu, Chainguard, and SUSE adopting OSV this year, https://t.co/JhJ5uLdAjV has really started to become a comprehensive vulnerability source for not only language packages, but also Linux distros!

CVE-2024-9143 ( https://t.co/ApXML9Eiuv) was disclosed recently, which was found by OSS-Fuzz-Gen! This is a pretty proud example of our team showing the promise of leveraging LLMs enable more fuzzing coverage.

One week later the bug count is now at 25 bugs total ( https://t.co/sjDnDMze7e) There's still many improvements to be made to improve success rate of generated targets, but we now have the problem of too many crashes to triage. Automating this will a focus of our future research.

This week we've added another 8 trophies to OSS-Fuzz-Gen (for a total of 14)! These are vulnerabilities found by LLM-generated harnesses. The interesting bit here is many of these are in well-fuzzed projects with thousands of hours of fuzzing already. https://t.co/sjDnDMyGhG

Sadly triaging findings by LLM-generated harnesses is fairly manual and time consuming. e.g. Some generated harnesses may not be valid. We have some work ongoing to auto-triage the results (using LLMs) and to steer LLMs away from generating bad harnesses.
