SonarQube Hunter Agent: Enterprise Alpha Invitation

Hello,

We are starting an alpha testing program for our new tool: the SonarQube Hunter Agent (SQHA). As an Enterprise customer, you are invited to participate.

What is the SonarQube Hunter Agent?

SQHA uses AI-driven instructions (called Playbooks) to reason through code logic. This allows it to find deep security flaws that regular static analysis misses.

The agent currently focuses on backend vulnerabilities, including:

  • Broken Access Control and IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference)
  • Business Logic Flaws
  • Authentication & Session Management issues

During internal testing, this agent discovered 200 new security flaws (zero-days) in popular open-source projects. We are currently disclosing these ethically.

Alpha Requirements

To participate, you must test the tool on production backend code. Your environment must meet the following criteria:

  • Platform: SonarQube Cloud Enterprise account (we require your organization key to activate the feature).
  • SCM: GitHub or GitLab.
  • Languages: Language-agnostic (primarily tested on Java and Python so far).

Benefits of Participation

  • Early Access: Detect advanced vulnerabilities in your code repositories at no cost. This will be a paid feature upon general release.
  • Product Influence: Your feedback will directly shape the development of the tool.

Feedback Objectives

During this test, we aim to evaluate three areas:

  1. Does the agent find critical security issues in your private code?
  2. Is the running speed acceptable for your workflow?
  3. Is the operational cost acceptable?

To join the alpha program, reply to this post with :+1: and I’ll get in touch with you for the details.
