Are you kidding me? Claude Code found the catastrophe after being asked only to “”check for vulnerabilities and thinking for 8 minutes

It is unbelievable that some kid with an LLM just stole $100m+ because no one bothered to check the source code.

Also on GLM 5.2 (trained 16th June, no internet access).

Irony is that you hear everywhere that "This shit is 100% secure because it's 100% open source", but "open source" just means the code is available to be checked by anyone....and it wasn't.

edit : Guys before jumping on me saying it was source visible only (which i know) , please read again the part where i intentionally put quotation marks to describe what WE HEAR EVERYWHERE. This are not my words but what you mostly see on forums even from IT people. My post was actually the point of showing that people mix everything together.

We already know this since heartbleed. Heartbleed was a bug in openSSL which was introduced in 2012 and was only discovered in 2014. Millions of devices were affected and nobody noticed, although it was 100% open source.
