AI Cracked Apple's Security in 5 Days
15 May
Summary
- AI created a privilege escalation exploit.
- Apple's Memory Integrity Enforcement was targeted.
- The exploit took five days to build using AI.
A security firm has demonstrated the power of artificial intelligence in uncovering system vulnerabilities. Researchers utilized Anthropic's cybersecurity AI to construct a privilege escalation exploit.
This exploit targeted Apple's Memory Integrity Enforcement (MIE) technology, a system introduced by Apple in September. Apple described MIE as the culmination of extensive design and engineering efforts spanning five years.
Remarkably, the AI-powered process of building the code that exploited two MacOS bugs took only five days, according to the security firm.
