Larson: Are insecure code completions a vulnerability?
[Posted June 10, 2026 by jzb] · 2026-06-11 · via LWN.net

Seth Larson, the Python Software Foundation's security developer-in-residence, has written about the difficulty in classifying insecure code completion in the PyCharm IDE using its Full Line code completion plugin. Larson discovered that the plugin, which uses a local "deep learning module" to offer code completions, suggests code that would lead to severe vulnerabilities. He was unsure whether it warranted a CVE or not, however:

I reported this behavior to JetBrains for "Full Line Code Completion" v253.29346.142 and clearly their support staff weren't certain whether this defect was a security vulnerability or not either. When I asked to publish a blog post about this behavior after they confirmed this report wasn't a "direct security vulnerability" (which I agree with) but then was asked not to publicize my report and referred to PyCharm's Coordinated Disclosure Policy so... which is it? Security vulnerability or not?

I ended up waiting the 90 days anyway and I didn't hear back with any substantive update from the development team. I double-checked again today using "Full Line Code Completion" v261.24374.152 and the behavior is identical, suggesting the same insecure code for both contexts.

This isn't meant to be a specific dig at PyCharm or JetBrains, I have no-doubt that examples like this exist in every code generation model available.
