When a Magecart payload hides inside the EXIF data of a dynamically loaded third-party favicon, no repository scanner will catch it – because the malicious code never actually touches your repo. As ...

Researchers say they’ve discovered a supply-chain attack flooding repositories with malicious packages that contain invisible code, a technique that’s flummoxing traditional defenses designed to ...

Q1: How does Claude Code Security function—and how does it differ from traditional static application security testing (SAST)? A1: Conventional rule-based static analysis uses pattern matching, ...

We all use LLMs daily. Most of us use them at work. Many of us use them heavily. People in tech — yes, you — use LLMs at twice the rate of the general population. Many of us spend more than a full day ...

Abstract: Static code analysis techniques examine programs without actually executing them. The main benefits lie in improving software quality by detecting problematic code constructs and potential ...

In our study, a novel SAST-LLM mashup slashed false positives by 91% compared to a widely used standalone SAST tool. The promise of static application security testing (SAST) has always been the ...

Code agents are AI systems that can generate high-quality code and work smoothly with code interpreters. These capabilities help streamline complex software development workflows, which has led to ...

An aardvark works in an office typing at a desktop PC while happy human workers mill about in the background. Credit: VentureBeat made with ChatGPT Positioned as a scalable defense tool for modern ...

This engineering experience paper details the application of design, development, and performance testing to an automated program repair tool we built that repairs C/C++ code. Static analysis (SA) ...

Abstract: Code smells are indicators of potential problems in software source code that may hinder maintainability, increase complexity, and elevate the likelihood of future defects. This paper ...
