Bitcoin Core updates security policy amid rise in AI‑assisted bug discovery

According to Cointelegraph, Bitcoin Core announced that it will no longer rely on keeping certain vulnerabilities confidential because artificial‑intelligence tools now make those bugs easier to discover. The organization stated that the practice of secrecy offered little additional protection in the current environment where AI can rapidly locate and report code issues.

The change reflects a shift in how Bitcoin Core approaches vulnerability management. Rather than hide identified weaknesses, the team plans to address them more openly, allowing broader review and quicker remediation.
