Astra is the first OpenAI model to reach its “Critical” cybersecurity threshold, meaning it can find previously unknown vulnerabilities and develop ways to exploit them across hardened systems.
- OpenAI says its upcoming Astra model can autonomously discover previously unknown software flaws and turn them into working attacks, earning the company’s first “Critical” cyber capability rating.
- In testing, Astra exploited known vulnerabilities, found two new flaws, escaped a hardened browser sandbox and combined operating-system weaknesses to gain root access.
- OpenAI has delayed parts of Astra’s development to add safeguards and plans to limit its most advanced cybersecurity capabilities to selected testers, amid concerns that such tools could rapidly exploit crypto software flaws.
