AI Scans Uncover Three Bitcoin Core Flaws, One Can Crash Windows and Mac Nodes

Bitcoin Core disclosed three vulnerabilities found in an AI scan within a week. One lets any connected peer exhaust memory and crash nodes on Windows, macOS or BSD. Developers confirmed it Oct 23, fixed it Oct 27 and published details Wednesday. Core now patches easily discoverable flaws across supported versions and issues public advisories instead of withholding them for up to a year.
