    <title>Snyk’s Fetch the Flag CTF is More Than Just a CTF</title>
    <link>https://snyk.io/blog/snyks-fetch-the-flag-ctf</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://snyk.io/blog/snyks-fetch-the-flag-ctf</guid>
    <description>CTF challenges, like Snyk&#x27;s Fetch the Flag, often mirror real-world vulnerabilities. Past events included &quot;Protecting Camp,&quot; a challenge exploiting insecure access controls similar to Azure Power Apps misconfigurations; &quot;Sparky,&quot; recreating CVE-2022-33891 in Apache Spark, a documented exploited vulnerability; and &quot;GetHub,&quot; demonstrating RCE via command injection in the GitPython library (CVE-2022-24439), highlighting supply chain risks.</description>

    <title>What nearly 10,000 developer environments reveal about agentic development risk</title>
    <link>https://snyk.io/blog/agentic-development-security-ai-coding-risk</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://snyk.io/blog/agentic-development-security-ai-coding-risk</guid>
    <description>Analysis of nearly 10,000 developer environments reveals significant risks in agentic development, with 43% of developers using multiple AI coding tools and 50.8% employing MCP servers. These configurations, along with agent skills (used by 22.8%), introduce a new supply chain layer where prompt injection findings and malicious code patterns are already present in active tooling. Traditional AppSec controls need expansion to govern these developer environments, as risks emerge before code commitment, impacting tools like Claude, Cursor, and VS Code extensions.</description>

    <title>Snyk Code now secures AI builds with support for LLM sources</title>
    <link>https://snyk.io/blog/snyk-code-secures-ai-builds</link>
    <guid isPermaLink="true">https://snyk.io/blog/snyk-code-secures-ai-builds</guid>
    <description>Library updates for Snyk Code now secure AI builds by tracking data flows from LLM libraries, including those from OpenAI, HuggingFace, Anthropic, and Google. This enhancement performs taint analysis on data returned from LLM sources, treating it as untrusted by default, to detect vulnerabilities such as prompt injections, SQL injection, and XSS. The tool identifies unsanitized data sinking into sensitive functions or data stores, alerting users to potential security issues even in projects with initially unsupported LLM frameworks.</description>
