Google deploys AI agents to find and fix Chrome vulnerabilities at unprecedented speed

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Google is leveraging AI, specifically Gemini agents, to significantly accelerate the process of finding, validating, and patching security vulnerabilities in Google Chrome. These AI systems can identify bugs, including a 13-year-old sandbox escape, and automate the generation of code patches and test suites. This has led to a dramatic increase in security fixes, with over 1,000 bugs patched in recent Chrome releases, and Google is developing dynamic patching to eliminate the 'patch gap' without requiring full browser restarts. AI

IMPACT Accelerates security patching for a major web browser, potentially reducing the window for exploits and improving web security.
