A security analysis of open-source AI agent frameworks revealed that approximately 20% of these frameworks allow model output to flow into dangerous code execution sinks like eval() or exec(). While many of these are designed for code writing, the static analysis tools commonly used are blind to the fact that the input originates from an LLM, creating a significant security gap. The analysis also identified a common practice of assembling LLM request parameters without token limits, which, while not a vulnerability itself, is a widespread issue that current scanners often miss.
