DO NOT rely on SAST #security scanners that are powered by AI-agents to solve cyber security problems! Most are just far from good enough. In the best case scenario, you’ll only be disappointed. But the risk of a false sense of security is enormous. Use github.com/nocomplexity...

Python Code goes through parsing, complication and execution. Python's execution model combines interpretation with compilation. Python’s popularity make it a target for malicious actors: Python code is not secure by default! codeaudit.nocomplexity.com #CPython #owasp #pycon

Never do: func_name = input("Enter function to run: ") exec(f"{func_name}()") Using `exec` in Python code is the fastest way to turn your Python script into a remote code execution vulnerability. Read: nocomplexity.com/exec-in-pyth... #python #pycon #owasp #appsec #infosec
