Root-Cause-Driven Automated Vulnerability Repair

Recent LLM-based systems have made automated vulnerability repair increasingly practical, but two challenges remain. First, without strong signals about where a bug originates, repair agents drift toward shallow edits that silence the observed failure while leaving the underlying defect unresolve...

Distilling Lightweight Language Models for C/C++ Vulnerabilities

The increasing complexity of modern software systems exacerbates the prevalence of security vulnerabilities, posing risks of severe breaches and substantial economic loss. Consequently, robust code vulnerability detection is essential for software security. While Large Language Models LLMs have...
