The median software dependency is now 278 days out of date.
That's not a stat about negligent teams. It's a stat about the impossible math of modern AppSec.
Datadog scanned tens of thousands of organizations for their 2026 DevSecOps report:
The fix isn't scanning more. It's scanning with context:
- Which 278-day-old deps actually execute in your production traffic?
- Which have active exploits?
- Which have a patch with no breaking changes?
Those 3 questions cut your risk list from hundreds to single digits.
This is a supply chain event, not a single CVE.

Researchers found a design flaw in Anthropic's MCP SDK that enables RCE.
Not in one project. In every project that imported the SDK.
7,000+ publicly accessible servers. 150M downloads. 11 CVEs.
If you're running any MCP-enabled tool in prod right now:
- Block public IP access to MCP services
- Run MCP servers in an isolated sandbox
- Treat external MCP configs as untrusted input
- Audit your installs - shadow MCP servers are real (OWASP MCP Top 10 #MCP09)
