Cloudflare outlines an eight-stage agent harness for vulnerability discovery

AISummary

Eugene Yan shares Cloudflare's description of a vulnerability discovery harness that runs eight stages, from reconnaissance to report writing.

The pipeline uses about 50 concurrent agents to hunt for bugs, independent agents to try to disprove findings, and a trace step to confirm whether attacker input reaches each bug.

Reachable findings feed back into new hunt tasks before a report is written against a predefined schema.

Cloudflare on their vulnerabilty discovery harness

  • Recon: Read the codebase, return an architecture doc
  • Hunt: ~50 agents look for bugs concurrently
  • Validate: Independent agents try to disprove findings
  • Gapfill: Areas that need a 2nd pass are flagged
  • Dedup: Findings with the same root cause combined
  • Trace: Confirms if attacker input reaches the bug
  • Feedback: If reachable, becomes new hunt tasks
  • Report: Write report with predefined schema
