Joern is the bug hunter's workbench. With this tool, you can uncover attack surface, sloppy coding practices, and variants of known vulnerabilities using an interactive code analysis shell. Joern supports C, C++, LLVM bitcode, x86 binaries via Ghidra, JVM bytecode via Soot, and Javascript...

Surgical Repair of Insecure Code Generation in LLMs

Large language models write production code, and yet they routinely introduce well-known vulnerabilities. We show that this is not a knowledge deficit: the same models that generate insecure code, correctly identify and explain the vulnerability when asked directly, this is a gap we call the...

Security Concerns in Generative AI Coding Assistants: Insights from Online Discussions on GitHub Copilot

Generative Artificial Intelligence GenAI has become a central component of many development tools e.g., GitHub Copilot that support software practitioners across multiple programming tasks, including code completion, documentation, and bug detection. However, current research has identified...

Minecraft-Rcon-Manage security vulnerability

Minecraft-Rcon-Manage is a game server framework developed by MemoryCache’s individual developers. Versions of Minecraft-Rcon-Manage prior to version 3 contained security vulnerabilities, which stemmed from improper control over code generation, potentially leading to code injection attacks...

Chinese DeepSeek-R1 AI Generates Insecure Code When Prompts Mention Tibet or Uyghurs

New research from CrowdStrike has revealed that DeepSeek's artificial intelligence AI reasoning model DeepSeek-R1 produces more security vulnerabilities in response to prompts that contain topics deemed politically sensitive by China. "We found that when DeepSeek-R1 receives prompts containing...

Is Your Prompt Poisoning Code? Defect Induction Rates and Security Mitigation Strategies

Large language models LLMs have become indispensable for automated code generation, yet the quality and security of their outputs remain a critical concern. Existing studies predominantly concentrate on adversarial attacks or inherent flaws within the models. However, a more prevalent yet...

Mind the Gap: a Practical Attack on GGUF Quantization

With the increasing size of frontier LLMs, post-training quantization has become the standard for memory-efficient deployment. Recent work has shown that basic rounding-based quantization schemes pose security risks, as they can be exploited to inject malicious behaviors into quantized models tha...

Teaching an Old LLM Secure Coding: Localized Preference Optimization on Distilled Preferences

LLM generated code often contains security issues. We address two key challenges in improving secure code generation. First, obtaining high quality training data covering a broad set of security issues is critical. To address this, we introduce a method for distilling a preference dataset of...

“Emergent Misalignment” in LLMs

Interesting research: "Emergent Misalignment: Narrow finetuning can produce broadly misaligned LLMs": Abstract: We present a surprising result regarding LLMs and alignment. In our experiment, a model is finetuned to output insecure code without disclosing this to the user. The resulting model act...
