AI Accelerates DevSecOps but Expands Attack Surfaces Across Code, Supply Chains, and Runtime Environments

Experts from Solar, Luntry, and Hexway report that AI has shortened the vulnerability exploitation window from 63 days in 2019 to just hours in 2025. The shift toward third-party libraries and vibe coding has redirected attacker focus to supply-chain compromises affecting thousands of organizations. AI-generated code introduces unique risks because it often bypasses established libraries, testing phases, and security reviews, with 41% of confidential data leaks into LLMs now consisting of source code. While AI tools like the Solar appScreener plugin achieve over 90% accuracy in triage and 85% in code-fix recommendations, human verification remains mandatory for critical vulnerabilities. Platforms such as Hexway ASOC and Luntry extend protection into container orchestration and runtime monitoring to handle AI agents that make decisions during execution. The overall effect is a tenfold increase in AppSec team capacity, yet also a larger volume of findings that must be managed through integrated ASOC workflows.
