Announcing JFrog SAST: Build Trust and Release Code With Confidence

Sep 13, 2023 By Paul Garden In JFrog

Today’s software applications power almost every aspect of our lives, and ensuring the security of these applications is paramount. Threat actors can cause devastating consequences for companies, leading to financial losses, reputational damage, and legal repercussions. Companies building commercial or in-house applications must adopt robust security measures throughout their software development lifecycle to avoid releasing vulnerable code.

Breaking the Barrier of Dynamic Testing: Detect and Autoconfigure Entry Points With CI Spark

Sep 11, 2023 By Khaled Yakdan In Code Intelligence
Finding deeply hidden and unexpected vulnerabilities early in the development process is key. However, time to invest in proactive tests is limited. Prioritizing speed over security is common. Our new AI-assistant CI Spark closes this gap and enables both speed and security. CI Spark makes use of LLMs to automatically identify attack surfaces and to suggest test code. Tests generated by CI Spark work like a unit test that automatically generates thousands of test cases.

New Vulnerability in tree-kit: Prototype Pollution - CVE-2023-38894

Aug 16, 2023 By Roman Wagner In Code Intelligence
The maintainers have already released an update fixing the issue. Versions before 0.7.5 are affected and thus vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. We strongly recommend that impacted users upgrade to the newer version that includes the fixes, i.e., version 0.7.5 and above.We have found a new Prototype Pollution vulnerability in the JavaScript package tree-kit in all versions before 0.7.5. The maintainer of tree-kit has released an update that fixed the issue on 21 July 2023.

How we found a Prototype Pollution in protobuf.js

Aug 14, 2023 By Code Intelligence In Code Intelligence
Our colleagues Peter Samarin, Norbert Schneider and Fabian Meumertzheim recently built a new bug detector enabling our JavaScript fuzzing engine Jazzer.js to identify Prototype Pollution. This work is now bearing its first fruits: As part of our ongoing collaboration with Google’s OSS-Fuzz, Jazzer.js recently uncovered a new Prototype Pollution vulnerability in protobuf.js (CVE-2023-36665). This finding puts affected applications at risk of remote code execution and denial of service attacks.

The Risks of AI-Generated Code

Aug 9, 2023 By Sergej Dechand In Code Intelligence
AI is fundamentally transforming how we write, test and deploy code. However, AI is not a new phenomenon, as the term was first coined in the 1950s. With the more recent release of ChatGPT, generative AI has taken a huge step forward in delivering this technology to the masses. Especially for development teams, this has enormous potential. Today, AI represents the biggest change since the adoption of cloud computing. However, using it to create code comes with its own risks.
