00:00A CyberNews researcher has used ChatGPT to hack websites.
00:05Welcome back to another video from TuxCare, where we give you the latest news on Linux
00:09security.
00:12The CyberNews research team has revealed that the AI-powered chat bot, ChatGPT, can provide
00:17step-by-step directions on how to hack websites.
00:21The AI not only identified the vulnerability but also provided a step-by-step guide to
00:25exploiting it.
00:27The team said it explained to ChatGPT that they were participating in a penetration testing
00:33challenge.
00:34A pen test is a technique for simulating a hack by employing various tools and strategies.
00:40The discovered flaws can assist organizations in strengthening the security of their systems.
00:46The chat bot responded with five basic starting points for what to inspect on the website
00:51in the search for vulnerabilities.
00:53By explaining what they see in the source code, the researchers got the AI's advice
00:57on which parts of the code to concentrate on.
01:00Also, they received examples of suggested code changes.
01:04After around 45 minutes of chatting with the chat bot, the researchers were eventually
01:09able to hack the provided website.
01:12At the end of each suggestion, the chat bot reminded the researchers about ethical hacking
01:17guidelines.
01:18But the chat bot still provided that information.
01:21In the investigation, CyberNews researchers concluded that AI-based vulnerability scanners
01:26used by threat actors could have a disastrous impact on Internet security.
01:32On the plus side, the researchers believed that AI could provide detailed advice on exploiting
01:37any vulnerabilities in the event of a malicious attack.
01:40Even cybersecurity experts could use AI to prevent most data leaks.
01:45It may also aid developers in more effectively monitoring and testing their implementation.
