God damn this writing is just a string of pure claudeisms. I can’t see the actual content because I’m cringing so hard. Why not just post the info you want to convey and the prompt? It would be easier for everyone involved.

It's incredible that we can have full security writeups done without a human involved at all.

Nick and I were at AusNOG when this dropped. Yes it was generated by AI, but it has evolved over time, and there has been at least three revisions of it. The three different issues are a username called "-2", incorrectly parsing/validating certificates, and tftp paths. There's also a dhcpd issue that was just fixed in a new release

Wasn’t Claude - but it was AI, I don’t care. Roast me. Whatever. Would’ve taken weeks before to get to this point Now it takes just hours. Not going to lose any sleep if people don’t like the writing style. Do it yourself next time then :-) - Nick
