Summary

Hide ▲

OpenAI has introduced Aardvark, an agentic security researcher powered by GPT-5. Aardvark is designed to automatically detect, assess, and patch security vulnerabilities in code repositories. The agent integrates into the software development pipeline to continuously monitor code changes and propose fixes. Aardvark has already identified at least 10 CVEs in open-source projects during its beta testing phase. The agent uses GPT-5's advanced reasoning capabilities and a sandboxed environment to validate and patch vulnerabilities. OpenAI envisions Aardvark as a tool to enhance security without hindering innovation.
