BitBox Firmware Flaws Found by AI

The detail worth noting is the discovery method: frontier AI models surfaced flaws in a hardware wallet maker's own firmware, a class of vulnerability usually found through external audit or exploitation. For a sector where trust rests on the assumption that signing keys never leave the device, a vendor-acknowledged flaw in older firmware is a reminder that security is version-dependent, not permanent. Whether AI-assisted vulnerability hunting becomes routine across wallet makers, and how quickly legacy devices are retired, is the open question.
