Learn from Your Mistakes: Tree-Like Self-Play for Secure Code LLMs

While Large Language Models LLMs excel in code generation, they remain prone to replicating subtle yet critical vulnerabilities endemic to their training data. Current alignment techniques, such as Supervised Fine-Tuning SFT and Reinforcement Learning RL, typically apply coarse-grained optimizati...

AgentVisor: Defending LLM Agents against Prompt Injection Via Semantic Virtualization

Large Language Model LLM agents are increasingly used to automate complex workflows, but integrating untrusted external data with privileged execution exposes them to severe security risks, particularly direct and indirect prompt injection. Existing defenses face significant challenges in balanci...

AI Chatbots and Trust

All the leading AI chatbots are sycophantic, and that's a problem: Participants rated sycophantic AI responses as more trustworthy than balanced ones. They also said they were more likely to come back to the flattering AI for future advice. And critically ­ they couldn't tell the difference betwe...

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...

Leveraging GPT-4 for Vulnerability-Witnessing Unit Test Generation

In the life-cycle of software development, testing plays a crucial role in quality assurance. Proper testing not only increases code coverage and prevents regressions but it can also ensure that any potential vulnerabilities in the software are identified and effectively fixed. However, creating...

Detailed explanations of Common Vulnerability scanners and network scanning techniques-vulnerability warning-the black bar safety net

With the rapid development of the Internet,Network Security has gradually become a potential huge problem, how to safeguard their own network security, one of the main method is self-examination and self-correction, and in this process, the own network is scanned to become a more efficient,...
