Welcome to Lucent Sky AVM version 2512 MR, the fourth release of 2025 — and yes, we are aware of the year, as the © Lucent Sky 2026 in the Web UI’s footer can attest.
Version 2512 introduces a redesigned parsing and lexing infrastructure, expanded support for new tech stacks and standards, and improvements across source code, binary, and dependency analysis. It also includes updates to automatic vulnerability remediation, ML‑augmented vulnerability explanations, and support for new versions of CycloneDX and Visual Studio. To learn more about this release, visit the Lucent Sky AVM version 2512 release notes.
Let’s take a look at the key new features, enhancements, and important changes in version 2512.
Version 2512 expands support for the latest technology stacks and security standards:
These updates ensure accurate analysis and vulnerability remediation for new frameworks and language releases and help development teams stay aligned with up‑to‑date industry standards and benchmarks.
One of the most significant enhancements in version 2512 is a complete redesign of the parsing and lexing infrastructure underpinning Lucent Sky AVM’s analysis and remediation engines. This new foundation enables more accurate handling of modern language features across C#, ECMAScript, Python, Dart, and others. It also provides a unified and more extensible architecture, paving the way for future enhancements and more streamlined support for new languages and language features.
While the new infrastructure offers greater accuracy, it may introduce slight performance regressions in limited scenarios. Performance is expected to improve over the next two releases as optimization work continues.
The dependency analysis engine in version 2512 delivers several improvements. It now provides better discovery of dependencies in binaries built with .NET, C/C++, Go, Java, and Rust, ensuring more complete and accurate identification of software components. License observation has been expanded to offer broader visibility into potential licensing risks. The vulnerability identification algorithms have also been enhanced to more precisely match dependencies against known security issues. In addition, overall performance of the dependency analysis engine has been improved, resulting in faster and more efficient dependency scanning.
Improvements were also made to the binary analysis engines for .NET and Java, as well as the source code analysis engines for Bash, C/C++, C#, ECMAScript, Go, Java, PHP, PowerShell, Python, Ruby, and VB.NET.
For Lucent Sky AVM’s intelligent remediation capabilities, this release includes ongoing improvements to the remediation engines and ML‑augmented remediation and explanations. Support for CycloneDX 1.7 SBOM generation has also been added, ensuring compatibility with the latest supply chain security standards. In addition, IDE extensions have been updated, with support for Visual Studio 2026 now generally available.
