The repository says AI-generated and low-value papers, including thin and 'salami' papers, are overwhelming volunteer moderators and delaying quality work.","solution":"arXiv says the monthly cap is a stopgap while it improves moderation and updates its guidance on AI use. The cap follows the person who submits a paper, and co-authors do not use up their own allowance when someone else submits it.","labels":["industry","policy"],"sourceUrl":"https://socket.dev/blog/arxiv-rate-limiting-slop?utm_medium=feed","publishedAt":"2026-10-09T14:44:50.809Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"info","attackType":[],"issueType":"news","affectedPackages":null,"affectedPackageNames":null,"affectedPackageRefs":null,"affectedVendors":[],"affectedVendorsRaw":["arXiv","ChatGPT"],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-5-5","classifierPromptVersion":"v4","summaryPromptVersion":"v2","headline":null,"headlinePromptVersion":null,"cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":null,"epssScore":null,"epssCheckedAt":null,"kevDateAdded":null,"advisoryAliases":null,"affectedPackagesSource":null,"affectedPackagesCheckedAt":null,"patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":"2026-10-09T14:44:50.809Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"moderate","impactType":null,"aiComponentTargeted":null,"llmSpecific":false,"classifierConfidence":0.85,"researchCategory":null,"atlasIds":null}}
