OpenAI's New GPT-6 Cyber AI Finds 81 Firefox Flaws, 948 Linux Bugs

The model also generated proof-of-concept exploits and candidate patches, and OpenAI said the run cost about $1.21 million in API credits.

  • On Thursday, OpenAI released GPT-6 Cyber, its latest cybersecurity-tuned model, which the company says combines "stronger cybersecurity capabilities with better adherence to researchers' rules of engagement."
  • OpenAI designed the model to "stay within authorized scope, respect restrictions and report results accurately," with testing showing it avoided exploiting out-of-scope services over 99 percent of the time during ExploitGym evaluations.
  • Researchers used the model to identify 81 previously unknown high-severity vulnerabilities in Firefox and developed exploits for 948 Linux kernel vulnerabilities, including 588 previously unknown bugs.
  • Initially available through the API and Codex for select Daybreak Red members, OpenAI plans to expand access to all Daybreak Red customers in the coming weeks.
  • Classified as "Critical" under OpenAI's Preparedness Framework, the model includes new checks to block "high-risk activity," such as attacks on critical infrastructure like power plants and water treatment facilities.
