DeepZero: Open-source hunting for vulnerable Windows drivers

DeepZero is an open-source tool that automates the discovery of exploitable vulnerabilities in Windows kernel drivers by parsing binaries, filtering candidates, and using a language model to identify potential attack surfaces. The project, maintained by Rehman Ahmadzai, has already identified multiple verified vulnerabilities in driver samples and uses YAML-configured pipelines with Python 3.11 and later.

Why it matters: Security researchers and organizations testing driver security can use this tool to proactively identify kernel driver vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them in the wild.
