Report #93694

[cost\_intel] Using GPT-4o for deep static analysis or security vulnerability detection

Use o1-preview or o3-mini-high for security audits; finds 2-3x more CVE-equivalent vulnerabilities

Journey Context:
Security requires tracing tainted data across deep call graphs and identifying context-sensitive flows. 4o misses indirect flows and second-order injection points. o1's reasoning approximates path-sensitive analysis like symbolic execution. Cost is justified: missing a Log4Shell-level bug costs millions. Use o3-mini-high for scanning large codebases cost-effectively.
