Having the blog post explaining the findings written - or aided - by an AI doesn't necessarily mean that the findings themselves were found using AI.

Edit: even if the TLD they use is .ai and they heavily promote themselves as revolutionary AI security firm yadda yadda yadda

From reading it and mostly from the introduction, it felt like they rolled up their sleeves and really dug into the code. This was refreshing versus the vibe-coding zeitgeist.

I would be curious what AI tools assisted in this and also what tools/models could re-discover them on the unpatched code base now that we know they exist.

I can imagine they could have used AI to analyze, describe and map out what exactly happens in the code. Then again, it's Go, following the flow of code and what exactly is being checked is pretty straightforward (see e.g. https://github.com/hashicorp/vault/blob/main/vault/request_h... which was mentioned in the article)
