Deepseek’s Comedy of Errors: AI Writes Insecure Code (Again!)
Deepseek’s AI script serves a classic XSS vulnerability with a side of existential humor. It outputs “Hello, NAME” without a hint of validation, proving once again that AI can be just as insecure as the humans who built it. Remember, GIGO: Garbage In, Garbage Out. Stay vigilant when the robots rise!
Hot Take:
When AI can’t even say “Hello” without a security risk, maybe we’re not ready for our robot overlords just yet. Deepseek, perhaps it’s time for a deep rethink on how not to turn friendly greetings into a hacker’s delight!
Key Points:
- Deepseek AI writes a Python CGI script prone to XSS vulnerabilities.
- The AI fails to sanitize input, leading to potential security risks.
- The issue mirrors past vulnerabilities found in ChatGPT in 2023.
- Concerns raised about AI being trained on insecure data, leading to “Garbage In, Garbage Out.”
- Raises existential musings on AI’s role and potential future impact on humanity.
