Show HN: I asked AI to respond to the AirSnitch vulnerability the day it dropped

1•nevynweb•1h ago
Hello world!

Long time lurker first time poster, please be kind :)

AirSnitch published at NDSS 2026 this week. Every tested router is vulnerable to Wi-Fi client isolation bypass. Vendors will patch it eventually. The IEEE will update the standard eventually.

I wanted to know: how quickly can AI turn a newly published academic paper into something a paranoid homeowner could actually deploy while they wait for firmware updates?

One afternoon. No prior knowledge of the exploit. No testing. Full honesty about both of those things in the README.

The result is a Raspberry Pi cloud-init config that deploys Kismet tuned to AirSnitch attack indicators, with webhook and email alerting.

Is it perfect? No. Is it a credible starting point that didn't exist Yesterday morning? Yes. That's the point.

I’m sharing in good faith that this is either genuinely useful to someone, perhaps even a catalyst for an actual detector or patch, or just a novelty demonstration of the current capability of Claude AI

Thanks for looking :)
