Math.random() Lacks True Randomness, Discovered While Generating API Keys in Popular Repo.

I found this in our benchmark corpus, extracted verbatim from Cal.com's Make integration setup (~44K GitHub stars): const apiKey = `cal_live_${Math.random().toString(36).substring(2)}`; An attacker who observes a handful of these keys can predict the next one. That is not a theoretical risk — it is

Frustrated by false positives, I created my own security scanner.

Every developer knows the pain of running a security scan. You wait for it to finish, only to be handed a giant report filled with hundreds of warnings. You then have to spend the next three hours manually testing each one, only to find out that almost all of them are false positives. It is a massiv

Unseen Threats Lurk in LLM Apps: Uncovering Hidden Risks of Prompt Injection

A few months ago I watched someone demo an internal AI assistant during a meeting that had already gone twenty minutes longer than planned.
