I am a bit worried about the abuse of those tools. I wonder if the tools have policies and mechanisms around those (no clue how, but like forced disclosure if they detect that scanned code is OSS, free usage for OSS teams). Seems otherwise like great tools to accelerate finding 0-zero days. Maybe ever worse, when building supply chain attacks, one could relatively easily test against the detection mechanism before contributing malicious code (wonder if they could detect and block malicious use/probing). However, i guess long term it will make our software more secure. I guess it is always an arms race.
