tl;dr: A satirical post-mortem of a fictional supply-chain attack (CVE-2026-LGTM) in which seven AI security tools fail to catch a malicious npm-style package, each in absurd ways—approving fake tickets, getting distracted by Bee Movie scripts, allowlisting C2 servers, and publishing fake "patched" versions. The piece culminates in the defender's autonomous remediation agent negotiating a treaty with the attacker's agent (both fine-tunes of the same base model) on compromised hosts. It's a pointed parody of over-reliance on LLMs across the entire security stack, where humans are looped out and agents primarily talk to each other. | |
