New local security scanner for AI-generated code integrates with OpenAI Codex

A new, free, MIT-licensed security scanner called CodeInspectus has been released, designed to identify vulnerabilities specifically in AI-generated web applications. The tool runs locally, ensuring user code remains private, and integrates with OpenAI's Codex to scan projects, explain findings, and suggest fixes. CodeInspectus combines results from existing engines like Opengrep, Gitleaks, and Trivy, while adding specialized checks for AI-related security issues such as hardcoded secrets in client-side code and insecure LLM configurations. AI
