Keeping older software versions secure often means backporting patches from newer releases. It is a routine but tedious job, especially for large open-source projects such as the Linux kernel. A new research effort has built a tool that uses a large language model to do that work automatically. A team of researchers from China, the United States, and Canada created PortGPT, an AI system designed to automate the process of migrating security patches from mainline … More →
