AI accelerates n-day attacks, as flaw disclosures and exploits double

Attackers are increasingly weaponizing already-disclosed flaws rather than new zero-days, and AI tools may be accelerating how quickly they do it. According to a report from Google’s Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG), attackers have exploited more vulnerabilities in the wild thus far this year than they did all of last year. With the number of flaws disclosed each month sharply rising, AI tools are helping reduce the time it takes to write working exploits for publicly disclosed bugs.
