Taking down a sprawling malware operation once signaled progress in securing the open-source ecosystem. Now, it barely registers. The GlassWorm campaign disruption comes at a moment when attackers can quickly reconstitute, and defenders are increasingly grappling with a new challenge: distinguishing real threats from automated noise.

“I think coordinated actions, like GlassWorm, can sever…

OWASP Adopts CVE Lite CLI to Boost Dependency Scanning

Checking for dependency vulnerabilities in freshly developed software is usually done near the end of the build process. Remediation at that point can be tricky. Now, JavaScript and TypeScript developers can check for vulnerabilities themselves as they – or their agents – write their source code, using an open source project called CVE Lite CLI. […]

As AI speeds coding, CVE Lite CLI keeps security deliberately AI-free

As AI coding assistants accelerate software development, one OWASP-backed open-source project is arguing that dependency security tooling still arrives too late to be truly useful.

CVE Lite CLI, a JavaScript and TypeScript dependency vulnerability scanner focused on local lockfile analysis, is positioning itself around a simple idea. Developers should see dependency risks while they are still…
