Researchers Use Claude to Port Pre-Auth RCE Exploit From One PLC Model to Another
Forescout Research - Vedere Labs said it used Anthropic's Claude to port a working pre-authentication remote code execution (RCE) exploit from one WAGO programmable logic controller (PLC) to another, executing attacker-supplied ARM shell…
AI Summary
Researchers from Forescout’s Vedere Labs employed Anthropic’s Claude AI to adapt an existing pre‑authentication remote code execution exploit, originally targeting one WAGO programmable logic controller, to work against a different WAGO PLC model. The AI‑assisted process enabled the execution of attacker‑supplied ARM shellcode on live hardware, demonstrating the feasibility of using large language models to port exploits across device variants.
