Semgrep: GLM-5.2 outperforms Claude Code in IDOR detection

The Semgrep security team ran models through their IDOR (Insecure Direct Object Reference) vulnerability benchmark. Zhipu AI's GLM-5.2 achieved a 39% F1 score at a cost of approximately $0.17 per detected vulnerability, surpassing Claude Code running on Opus 4.6 (37%) and Opus 4.8 (28%).

Both runs used identical prompts, but the open-weights GLM-5.2 operated without additional scaffolding, receiving only the code and a hint without endpoint discovery. The Semgrep multimodal pipeline using GPT-5.5 and Opus 4.8 remained ahead at 61% and 53% respectively, specifically due to that scaffolding.

GLM-5.2 is a 750 billion parameter MoE model with approximately 40 billion active parameters per token and a context window of up to 1 million tokens.
