Claude finds and patches memory vulnerabilities autonomously
Reference implementation pipelines static analysis + execution verification + patch generation for C/C++ memory bugs, runs inside gVisor sandbox to isolate agent code.
June 5, 2026
Summary
Replaces manual vulnerability triage and candidate-fix drafting with a repeatable recon→find→verify→report→patch loop that scales across codebases. Developers can iterate from threat model to verified crashes in days, not weeks.

Implementation verdict
This is a reference template, not a maintained product. Start Day 1 with interactive Claude Code skills (safe, no sandbox needed), move to autonomous pipeline on Day 2 (requires Docker + gVisor setup). Worth trying now if you own C/C++ security scanning; porting to other languages requires forking the harness and rewriting detector/compiler stages.
