What permissions are developers granting to Claude Code, and could those permissions pose a risk if the coding agent were exposed to malicious inputs? To answer this question, we turned to GitHub, the website where developers go to share their private configuration files. From Github we collected a dataset of 18,470.claude/settings.local.json files, each containing the permissions that a user granted to Claude Code for a software project.

If you think AI-generated code is saving you time and boosting productivity, you’re right. But here’s the problem: it’s also likely introducing security vulnerabilities. However, there are GenAI security practices that can be weaved into your workflow to help protect your apps. The software development landscape is shifting under our feet.

Late last week, GreyNoise published one of the clearest signals we have seen that AI systems are no longer just research targets. They are operational targets. Their honeypot infrastructure captured 91,403 attack sessions between October 2025 and January 2026, revealing two distinct campaigns systematically mapping AI deployments at scale. This is a meaningful inflection point.
