As developers, we're constantly juggling features, fixes, and deadlines. Yet, a lurking issue has been surprisingly overlooked: the continued use of vulnerable Log4j and Spring Framework versions in many projects. Despite the high-profile exposure of Log4Shell and Spring4Shell vulnerabilities, a shocking number of applications are still running on these ticking time bombs.

Whether you’re using them as a personal research assistant, an editor, or a data analyst, these tools represent a new frontier of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) and arguably will have the most significant impact of any technology in this decade.

Snyk Code was the only code security tool shortlisted by developers as an AI tool they’ve been regularly using this past year or are looking forward to using next year in Stack Overflow’s recent 2024 AI Search and Developer Tools survey.
