A security researcher, Ian Carroll, utilized Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.7 to discover a significant vulnerability in Front Gate Tickets, a major US music festival ticketing platform. The flaw would have allowed for the free issuance of unlimited VIP tickets and access to millions of customer records. Carroll reported the vulnerability, which has since been patched, and Anthropic stated that its Cyber Verification Program is designed to facilitate such security research. AI
