No, that’s a terrible thing and random skiddie hackers absolutely should. This is only a temporary state of insecurity as these vulnerability scanners come online.

If this stuff is open source and not gate kept, it will be standard practice to just run some LLM security analysis on every commit and software will no longer be vulnerable to these classes of attacks.

Your "just a temporary state of insecurity" results in literal dead bodies on the ground unless defenders have a chance to front-run.
Keeping it behind closed doors also results in literal dead bodies on the ground. This isn’t the first time vulnerabilities have been hoarded and it never works out well for the greater good despite the original good intentions.
