A malicious actor published tainted Nx releases to npm on August 26–27, 2025, inserting a postinstall payload that harvested secrets, stole GitHub/npm tokens, and exfiltrated them through new GitHub repositories created inside victim accounts. This is an active supply-chain attack with the potential to cascade from compromised developer endpoints into source control, CI/CD, and production.

License compliance is one of the oldest disciplines in application security. For more than two decades, organizations have relied on Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tools to identify copy-left licenses, produce audit trails, and reduce legal risk. Kodem’s new license enforcement capability represents the first real breakthrough in years.

In 2024, more than 33,000 CVEs were disclosed, an all‑time high, but only about 12% of those labeled “Critical” actually proved exploitable. Meanwhile, high‑profile exploit chains like Pegasus and Blastpass, and careless breaches like the Tea app hack, reveal that Medium‑ranked or poorly‑coded vulnerabilities, rather than CVSS labels, often lead to real attacker impact.

Kodem recently identified two security issues in Claude Code: a misconfiguration allowing circumvention of user approval and a subsequent Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition.

At RSAC 2025, we launched Kai, the first AI-native application security engineer. Today, we’re expanding it into a fully agentic task force that truly performs AppSec tasks from start to finish. 

The Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) recently released RFC-0012, marking a notable shift towards more stringent standards for continuous vulnerability management. Cloud providers and security teams must adjust quickly to stay compliant and secure (FedRAMP, 2024).

CVE‑2025‑23266, nicknamed NVIDIAScape, is a pre‑execution flaw in the NVIDIA Container Toolkit.

Rapyd, a global fintech platform operating in over 100 countries, partnered with Kodem to modernize its application security program. Faced with mounting vulnerabilities and a shortage of specialized AppSec talent, Rapyd needed more than another scanner—it needed a platform that could think like an expert. Kodem delivered measurable reductions in triage time, rework, and risk exposure by focusing on what attackers can actually exploit.

CVE-2025-25257 is a critical vulnerability in Fortinet FortiWeb Fabric Connector. It allows unauthenticated SQL injection, which attackers escalate into remote code execution (RCE) on affected appliances.

CVE-2025-47812 is a critical vulnerability affecting Wing FTP Server versions prior to 7.4.4. This severe security flaw enables unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code remotely (RCE) by exploiting inadequate validation of input containing null bytes (%00) in the authentication process

The Exploit Prediction Scoring System (EPSS) is a data-driven model that predicts the likelihood a given software vulnerability will be exploited in the wild.

Most security tools today, static analyzers, fuzzers, even single-agent LLMs, struggle to find complex, multi-step vulnerabilities. But the emerging model of multi-agent collaboration can fundamentally transform vulnerability discovery. Argusee’s recent results are just a glimpse of what's possible.
