Google Catches the First AI Built Zero Day: Inside the GTIG Report on a Two Factor Authentication Bypass, the LLM Fingerprints, and the Mass Exploitation Event That Almost Was - May 12, 2026
On May 11, 2026 Google Threat Intelligence Group disclosed the first publicly documented in the wild use of an AI generated zero day exploit, a Python script that bypassed two factor authentication on a widely deployed open source admin tool and was poised for mass exploitation before Google disrupted it. Chris and Laura unpack the telltale LLM fingerprints in the code, the new AI augmented malware families like PROMPTSPY, PROMPTFLUX, and PROMPTSTEAL, the China, Russia, and North Korea linked threat actors named in the report, and the shadow API relay market that is leaking premium model access into mainland China. The bottom line: the discovery to weaponization timeline has already collapsed, and defenders do not get to opt out.
Hosted by Chris and Laura.
