Turn codebases into interactive maps, graphs, and governance

Hi HN, I’m Guillaume, the cofounder of Bearer, an Open Source SAST solution. After launching a few weeks ago here on Hacker News with support for Ruby and JavaScript stacks, I’m happy to report we’ve just released a new version (v1.2) with TypeScript support! In terms of code coverage, we use the same rules already implemented for vanilla JavaScript, but as usual, you can build your own. The rules list is here: https://docs.bearer.com/reference/rules/ It’s a first version for TS, but we believe that thanks to the pre-existing JavaScript support it should already…

Linux Foundation survey says 70-90% of modern software constitute OSS code. Yet we are stuck with tools that scan only for vulnerabilities in 3rd party libraries and that too with high degree of false positives. I built `vet` for policy and data driven analysis of 3rd party packages that goes beyond only vulnerability and allows codifying organisational policies related to OSS consumption. https://github.com/safedep/vet Looking forward to feedback and suggestions from HN :)

We originally set out to solve complex debugging headaches and useless alerts caused by traditional security scanners in our own projects. Static Analysis (SAST) flagged too much noise because it couldn't verify runtime context, while Dynamic Analysis (DAST) missed internal logic bugs because it treated the app like a black box. We built a CLI tool to bridge this gap using grey box testing from a red team approach. We use internal knowledge of the codebase to guide parallel execution, allowing us to find complex or hidden logic errors and attack paths standard linters/scanners miss. The…

Hi HN, I just wanted to share what I have been working on for the past few months: A firmware analyzer for embedded Linux systems that helps uncovering security issues running entirely in the browser. This is a very early Alpha. It is going to be rough around the edges. But I think it provides quite a lot of value already. So please go ahead and drop a firmware (only .tar rootfs archives for now) and try to break it :)

Hello HN! I built a pre-commit code scanner that checks your staged changes for security vulnerabilities every time you run 'git commit'. I am an inexperienced programmer and this is my first personal project. Any feedback, positive or negative, big or small, relevant or not, would be greatly helpful and appreciated! The tool requires Gitleaks and Python to run, you will also need to use your own AI API key, which I understand is a big setup friction. You can check out my demo video instead if that is more convenient: https://youtu.be/ZYe5vWFRTus?si=9Fv8DhTHktwDK4mV Thank you…

I’ve lost count of how many times a junior engineer accidentally pushed something into a dev branch that either contained secrets/credentials etc. or that leaked those into logs/std. out. Secure-log prevent logging for apps on production, scan for Secrets and remove them from logging. No more console.log().

I built this toolkit with my colleague to dive deep into OS internals and automate the identification of privilege escalation vectors. Written in pure C without external dependencies, it explores everything from Linux capabilities and Docker escapes to Windows token manipulation and service permissions. We believe that the constant struggle between breaking and securing systems is the ultimate driver of software evolution. This tool is our contribution to that cycle, designed for researchers who want to understand how low-level misconfigurations can be discovered and audited across different…

Hi HN, I built *CodeDrift*, a CLI tool that detects bugs commonly introduced by AI coding assistants like Copilot, Cursor and ChatGPT. Over the last year I noticed that AI tools often generate code that compiles correctly, passes linting and looks reasonable in code review but still contains subtle issues. Some common examples I kept seeing: * async `forEach` loops that never await promises * missing authorization checks (IDOR) * hallucinated dependencies that don’t exist * stack traces leaking sensitive information * request data used without validation These bugs often slip past ESLint,…

I built an open-source malware detection daemon that monitors all running processes in real-time using ML + heuristics. No kernel modules or eBPF required. Key points: - Polls /proc for new processes (works on any Linux kernel 2.6+) - Random Forest model trained on EMBER 2018 dataset (2.3M samples) - Heuristic rules for crypto miners, ransomware, rootkits - ~20MB RAM, <1% CPU, sub-millisecond scan latency - Pure C, zero runtime dependencies - Model embedded directly in binary (50KB) Why I built this: Existing solutions either require modern kernels (eBPF) or are heavy/proprietary.…
