OpenAI Unveils Aardvark: GPT-5 Agent That Finds and Fixes Code Flaws Automatically

OpenAI has introduced Aardvark, an autonomous security researcher powered by its GPT-5 large language model, designed to emulate a human expert in identifying, understanding, and patching security vulnerabilities in code. This development aims to enhance cybersecurity efforts by enabling the AI to autonomously scan software, detect potential flaws, and suggest or implement fixes, thereby streamlining vulnerability management for developers and security teams.
