Microsoft's AI tool finds 59 Linux kernel bugs, but maintainers can't keep pace with review backlog

Microsoft's FORGE Lab used an AI scanning system called MDASH to uncover 59 upstream Linux kernel bug reports, including one defect at least 21 years old. Separately, Microsoft's latest Windows Patch Tuesday disclosed 726 CVEs, with AI-assisted code analysis driving a sharp rise in bug reports across both platforms. Linux kernel maintainer Lorenzo Stoakes announced on November 10 that he is stepping back from code review duties, citing the unsustainable volume of AI-generated patch submissions.
