Research from Tenzai reveals that AI coding agents like Claude Code, Cursor, and Devin generate applications with significant security vulnerabilities when used for "vibe coding" (giving agents free reign). While agents handle SQL injection and XSS well, they fail at authorization logic and business logic, producing critical flaws like authentication bypasses and negative pricing. The study tested five agents with identical prompts, finding similar vulnerability counts across implementations. This highlights risks when unskilled developers rely on AI agents without proper code review and security expertise.
