Anthropic launched automated security reviews in its Claude Code product to assist developers in identifying and rectifying vulnerabilities during software development. This update features a GitHub Actions integration and a new command, allowing security scans of code to recommend fixes efficiently. Following the release of Claude Opus 4.1, the advancements highlight the competitive landscape as AI tools become more prevalent among developers. Despite 84% using AI in workflows, trust in outputs remains low, with mixed responses regarding accuracy and reliability.
The new "/security-review" command allows developers to run ad-hoc security scans from the terminal before committing code, helping identify vulnerabilities earlier in the development process.
Claude can search codebases for potential vulnerabilities and provide detailed explanations of any detected issues, focusing on common vulnerabilities like SQL injection and XSS.
