Anthropic’s OSS Scanner has generated 29,000 candidate vulnerabilities in widely used open source projects, overwhelming the human review and patching pipeline. As of October 2, only 516 vulnerabilities had been patched upstream despite 5,674 of 6,123 reviewed findings being confirmed valid. Anthropic responds by sending many scanner reports directly to maintainers through an optional fast-track that bypasses Anthropic validation, changing the workflow from a backlog-based process to faster, maintainer-led triage.
