Bitcoin Red Team flags 7,958 issues after Kimi K3 scan

Bitcoin Red Team has expanded its AI-assisted security review to 501 Bitcoin-related open-source projects, logging 7,958 findings in its latest detailed tally after 108 hours of work. Summary Bitcoin Red Team scanned 501 projects and logged 7,958 findings after 108 hours of reviews. Researchers classified 1,280 findings as high or critical, but many still require human verification today. About 24.7% of findings had reproducible proofs, while 29.4% were reported upstream to project maintainers. Kimi K3 became the campaign’s primary AI workhorse as researchers tested Bitcoin open-source software extensively. BTCPay Server released fixes after Bitcoin Red Team and independent researchers reported security vulnerabilities recently. Calle, a pseudonymous Bitcoin developer involved in the effort, said on Aug. 13 that the team has now completed a basic scan of almost the entire Bitcoin open-source ecosystem and that much of the easier-to-find vulnerability surface has already been examined. The headline numbers require an important distinction. The 7,958 findings do not represent 7,958 confirmed exploitable vulnerabilities. The team classified 1,280 as high or critical, while 24.7% of al...
