Forescout researchers used Claude AI to move a remote code execution exploit from one WAGO PLC model to another. The work took hours and cost several hundred dollars. SecurityWeek reported the experiment as a demonstration that AI tools can adapt existing PLC exploits for new targets. The source summary notes the process required limited time and expense while requiring some human guidance during the porting steps.

SecurityWeek@SecurityWeekExperiment: Porting a PLC Exploit With AI Takes Hours and Hundreds of Dollars #ICS
TechRadar@techradarAI is getting closer to being able to exploit OT - that's very bad news for critical infrastructure
