System Over Model, Tested: Reproducing Mythos's FreeBSD Find on Local Open-Weight Models
Anthropic's Mythos preview highlighted a 17-year-old FreeBSD RCE. AISLE then reproduced it cheaply with a structured nano-analyzer pipeline and pushed that test onto local open-weight models using Gemma and GPT-OSS across the full FreeBSD sys/rpc subsystem. Both models can identify the stack overflow in the vulnerable file alone, but broader scans drown it out with false positives and inconsistent triage votes. A simple extra reachability stage filters findings based on attacker-controlled paths and preserves the real CVE, turning noisy output into a shortlist that a single analyst can review.
