AI-assisted security reports are overwhelming `curl` maintainers
40radar
AI is raising both the volume and quality of security reports. The bottleneck shifts from finding bugs to triaging them, a real maintenance cost for any public project.
- Incoming
curlsecurity reports are 4-5x higher than 2024 and now average more than one per day. - Report quality is higher: detailed, credible submissions reduce noise but raise review workload sharply.
- Recent
curlvulnerabilities are still LOW or MEDIUM; better discovery does not automatically mean severe risk. - Public libraries and APIs need a triage path before opening the floodgate to AI-generated reports.
