Sonar's Hunter Agent uses AI to hunt logic bugs before attackers do
AI Engineer · youtube · 2026-10-29
At AI Engineer, Sonar's Taylor Luttrell-Williams introduced the SonarQube Hunter Agent, targeting what pattern-based SAST misses: valid code with flawed intent (broken access control, business logic gaps, auth holes).
- Maps the repo, runs three specialist agents, and adversarially validates every finding
- Live demo surfaced 46 issues in a Python app, including self-promotion to admin and an MFA bypass
- Sonar announced joining the OpenAI Daybreak cyber partner program
- Also covers layering with SAST, scheduled scans, and automatic remediation
