OpenAI Launches GPT-5.6-Cyber with Reduced Safeguards for Exploit Development

OpenAI released GPT-5.6-Cyber for vulnerability research and pentesting via Daybreak Red, completing 95% of advanced cyber task evaluations.

GPT-5.6-Cyber, built on GPT-5.6 Sol, targets zero-day discovery, exploit chain development and incident response with reduced refusals, scoring 95.0% on OpenAI's Advanced Cybersecurity Completion Rate versus 1.5% for GPT-5.6 Sol and 57.3% for GPT-5.5-Cyber. The model found CVE-2026-15903 (CVSS 8.8), an out-of-bounds read/write in Chrome's V8 JavaScript engine that Google patched in mid-July 2026. It is available to trusted partners including CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks and Cloudflare through the Daybreak Red access tier.

OpenAI Astra Brings Autonomous Zero

OpenAI says Astra is its first model rated Critical for cybersecurity risk, able to autonomously find zero-days and build full exploit chains without human guidance.

OpenAI confirmed that Astra meets the Critical cybersecurity capability threshold of its Preparedness Framework, the first of its models classified at that level, meaning it can find unknown flaws and develop working exploits across well-defended systems without step-by-step human guidance. Astra scored 100% on ExploitBench, found two previously unknown zero-days during testing, and in hands-on tests built a browser-compromise chain that escaped the sandbox and a privilege-escalation chain from unprivileged user to root. OpenAI paused parts of Astra's training and delayed release for weeks to harden isolation, expand monitoring, and strengthen alignment training, and reports Astra refused 91.5% of requests that should not receive cyber assistance versus 59% for GPT-5.6 Sol. Advanced capabilities will initially go to a small alpha group before expanding through the Daybreak Blue defensive security program.
