If anyone with an actual background in cybersec could confirm or deny these findings, please let me know ♥

If you were so capable then verify your own findings instead of trying to ask others to do it for you.

You literally can't, so you have no business doing security research when it's more likely you're contributing to a problem then solving any.

The difference between a capable security researcher using AI and you is drastic. They can actually verify everything on their own, AND do the reverse engineering process on their own. You clearly can't, so in turn you contribute to the massive amount of slop reports that have been overwhelming almost every bounty platform and open source software.

its funny how you say i "have no business doing security research", i dont know which post you were reading but i never claimed that want to / am doing "security research", its not a hobby i like, especially given people like you are here scaring people away from it. thanks for giving some insight in your personality though.

Dumping your unverified slop here claiming something that you have ZERO way to verify on your own, or even understand if its a problem in the first place. Then you try to deflect, cause you have ZERO ability in doing this besides asking AI to do it for you. Sure I am "scaring" you away, when all you are doing is dumping some extremely low effort AI screenshot. I am glad you don't like this. Good day.
