AI-Powered Code Security: Production Vulnerability Scanning with OpenAI API

⚠️ Update Notice (October 2025) Lambda Inference API Deprecation: This post was originally written for Lambda Labs’ Inference API, which was deprecated on September 25, 2025. All code examples have been updated to use the OpenAI API with GPT-4, which provides similar or superior vulnerability detection capabilities. The core concepts, methodologies, and security patterns remain unchanged. Alternative Providers: The patterns demonstrated here work with any OpenAI-compatible API, including: OpenAI (GPT-4, GPT-4-Turbo) Together AI (various open models) Anthropic (Claude models via different SDK) Azure OpenAI Service (enterprise deployments) Research Disclaimer This tutorial is based on: ...

Automating Security: How to Scan AI-Generated Code with Endor Labs (Step-by-Step Guide)

Introduction AI-generated code from tools like GitHub Copilot and Cursor accelerates development but introduces hidden risks: 62% of AI-generated solutions contain security flaws, including hardcoded secrets, SQLi, and insecure dependencies. Traditional SAST tools struggle with probabilistic code patterns, creating a critical gap in modern DevSecOps pipelines. Endor Labs’ $93M-funded platform addresses this with AI-native static/dynamic analysis, scanning LLM outputs for context-aware vulnerabilities. This guide walks through local setup, CI/CD integration (with GitHub Actions examples), and custom rule creation to secure AI-generated code before deployment. ...
