We pentested 200 companies in last 3 months.
- 3.6M PII records exposed at one
- 6M passenger records at another
- PHI leaking at a healthcare unicorn
All passed their annual pentest
Start free pentest from @CodeAntAI

@CodeAntAI is launching Agentic Pentest.
Used by some of the world’s fastest-moving companies.
We spent all of Q1 building this with design partners.
This week, we’re letting our customers do the talking, starting with @monikkinom, CEO of @TomaAuto(AI for the automotive industry).
Now we’re opening it to everyone.
Here’s the deal:
- Get free pentest
- Full report in 24 hours
- Low & medium issues? On us
- Critical issue found? Pay only then
We take the risk. You get the results.

@CodeAntAI quietly put up some of the strongest numbers in our offline benchmark: top 3 across the board, and #2 on critical risk issues, medium/large PRs, and TypeScript. A lot of range.

2 weeks ago, I was debugging something @CodeAntAI code reviewer flagged.
It flagged a regex issue in the simple-git repo.
12.4 million weekly downloads.
The flag: "This regex guards a case-insensitive system using case-sensitive matching."
I almost scrolled past it. I didn't.
One hour later I had a working remote code execution POC ready.
Here's the thing, simple-git had already fixed this. Twice.
CVE-2022-25912. CVE-2022-25860.
Both attempted to block the dangerous `ext::` Git protocol using a regex.
- The regex used [a-z]. Case-sensitive.
- Git config keys are case-insensitive.
So protocol.allow=always → blocked.
PROTOCOL.ALLOW=always → full remote code execution.
The fix that shipped? One character. Adding '/i' to the regex flag.
That's the entire diff.
73% of all simple-git installs, roughly 9 million downloads per week, are still running the vulnerable versions right now.
The advisory hasn't hit NVD yet. Which means every scanner in your stack is currently blind to it.
Snyk. SonarQube. Checkmarx. All blind.
Not because they’re bad products.
Because they rely on known CVEs.
If the CVE doesn’t exist yet, the pattern doesn’t exist yet.
This is CVE-2026-28292. CVSS 9.8 Critical.
Five days before this, we disclosed CVE-2026-29000. CVSS 10.0. Authentication bypass in pac4j-jwt. Different ecosystem. Different vulnerability class.
Rule-based scanners ask: "Does this match a known bad pattern?"
AI code review asks: "Does this code do what it's supposed to do?"
A case-sensitive regex guarding a case-insensitive syste, isn't a known pattern.
It's a logic gap.
A spec vs implementation mismatch.
That's exactly what CodeAnt AI catches, and exactly what everything else misses.
So far we've filed:
- 100+ vulnerabilities
- Across npm, PyPI, Maven, NuGet
- 1.85B monthly downloads affected
Patch ≠ Fix.
Massive respect to Steve (steveukx), 4 days from report to patch. Open-source maintainers are the unsung backbone of this entire industry.
If you use simple-git: npm install simple-git@latest. Do it now.

[Raw Video] On Saturday, Feb 28th, two of our engineers were running @CodeAntAI’s code reviewer against open-source packages.
It stopped on pac4j-jwt. One of the most widely used Java authentication libraries in the world.
The finding made them go silent.
An attacker can log in as admin. As any user. With just the server's public key. The key that's designed to be public.
No password. No secrets. No hacking. Nothing.
Full authentication bypass.
The root cause? A single bad null check.
One misplaced null check meant the entire signature verification gets silently skipped.
CVE-2026-29000. CVSS 10.0 🔥
We're doing responsible outreach to every affected project. There are a lot of them.
We're also launching a free scanner where you can check your entire codebase to see if you're affected.

Replying to @CodeAntAI
@CodeAntAI's code reviewer just found a zero day security vulnerability, with a CVSS score of 10.0 (maximum)
CVE-2026-29000. Published today.
A complete authentication bypass in pac4j-jwt, one of the most widely used Java auth libraries.
An attacker can craft a token and log in as any user, including admin. The only thing they need? The server's RSA public key. The one that's public by design.
The root cause: the library trusts a type of token that the JWT spec technically allows but that should never bypass signature verification.
When it receives one, it skips the entire signature check and builds a fully authenticated session from whatever the attacker put in the token.
Not a human researcher. Not a pen tester. An AI code reviewer.
We don't publish benchmarks. We publish CVEs. This is one of 87, zero day vulnerabilities we published, more dropping soon!
Kudos to @VulnCheckAI for expediting the CVE assignment. @CVEnew
CodeAnt AI (YC W24) retweeted
We just broke one of the most popular Java auth libraries with nothing but a public key.
Full admin access.
Zero credentials needed.
No private key, no shared secret, just your public key to become admin.
We reported it, worked with the maintainer, patched across 3 versions in 72 hours.
Kudo to Jérôme Leleu, who moved incredibly fast on the disclosure.

I analyzed the top 400 exploited vulnerabilities of 2025.
And found something wild:
– 0% can be fixed by looking at the application code alone
– 46% can be fixed with context: third-party dependencies, IaC configs, cloud configs
AI code reviews aren’t just for bugs. They should uncover real risks
This week = Security Week.
For the next 5 days, we’re showing how teams fix risks across code, infra & cloud.
