Using Agents to Assess Exploitability of Dependency Vulnerabilities
andreamichi · x · 2026-08-25
The author discusses the limitations of separating dependency vulnerability analysis (SCA) from code analysis (SAST), advocating for assessing dependencies in the context of the codebase. The cited content introduces a tool that translates exploits into atomic conditions (recipes) and uses agents to evaluate whether these conditions are met in the current repository, configuration, and deployment artifacts to precisely determine reachability and exploitability.
