Ethereum client developer Nethermind and Bitcoin and Lightning wallet ZEUS applied on Friday for Anthropic's newly launched OSS Scanner program. According to NS3.AI, Anthropic said the opt-in service will give open-source projects vulnerability reports generated by its strongest AI models, including Claude Mythos.

Nethermind asked for scans of its entire repository, while ZEUS requested checks for weaknesses tied to payments, private keys and connections to Lightning Services. None of the application pull requests had been merged at the time of publication.

Anthropic also warned that AI may favor attackers in the near term because exploitation is becoming cheaper, while verifying and fixing vulnerabilities remains slow and dependent on people.
