  • •Legit Security's Agentic Remediation now covers open-source dependencies.
  • •AI-generated code increases the volume of vulnerabilities in software development.
  • •The platform automates the transition from detection to verified fixes.

Legit Security has announced an expansion of its Agentic Remediation capability to address vulnerabilities in open-source dependencies, in addition to first-party code. This move is in response to the increasing volume of AI-generated code, which has made traditional vulnerability management methods inadequate. The new feature allows development teams to transition from vulnerability detection to verified fixes without manual intervention. Legit's platform identifies vulnerable packages, finds safe upgrades, applies fixes, and verifies them before opening a pull request. This capability is crucial as modern codebases heavily rely on open-source components, which can introduce significant security risks. The expansion aims to streamline the remediation process, especially as attackers leverage AI to exploit vulnerabilities faster than defenders can respond. The company emphasizes that the challenge now lies in the speed of fixing vulnerabilities rather than merely identifying them.
