## AI overview

A benchmark of about 150 vulnerable JavaScript, Java, and Python samples evaluates whether frontier models produce fixes that are both secure and functional. The article reports that models working alone reach roughly 72-75%, while Snyk Intelligence raises Opus 4.6 from 74.6% to 85.4% and improves Python results from 64% to 88%.

## Source excerpt

A benchmark of secure, functional vulnerability fixes across JavaScript, Java, and Python shows Snyk Intelligence helps frontier models break past a 72-75% performance plateau.
