With the emergence of remote code execution RCE vulnerabilities in ubiquitous libraries and advanced social engineering techniques, threat actors have started conducting widespread fileless cryptojacking attacks. These attacks have become effective with stealthy techniques based on PowerShell-bas...

MultiVer: Zero-Shot Multi-Agent Vulnerability Detection

We present MultiVer, a zero-shot multi-agent system for vulnerability detection that achieves state-of-the-art recall without fine-tuning. A four-agent ensemble security, correctness, performance, style with union voting achieves 82.7% recall on PyVul, exceeding fine-tuned GPT-3.5 81.3% by 1.4...

From SFT to RL: Demystifying the Post-Training Pipeline for LLM-Based Vulnerability Detection

The integration of LLMs into vulnerability detection VD has shifted the field toward interpretable and context-aware analysis. While post-training methods have shown promise in general coding tasks, their systematic application to VD remains underexplored. In this paper, we present the first...

GoodVibe: Security-By-Vibe for LLM-Based Code Generation

Large language models LLMs are increasingly used for code generation in fast, informal development workflows, often referred to as vibe coding, where speed and convenience are prioritized, and security requirements are rarely made explicit. In this setting, models frequently produce functionally...

A one-prompt attack that breaks LLM safety alignment

Large language models LLMs and diffusion models now power a wide range of applications, from document assistance to text-to-image generation, and users increasingly expect these systems to be safety-aligned by default. Yet safety alignment is only as robust as its weakest failure mode. Despite...

The Trigger in the Haystack: Extracting and Reconstructing LLM Backdoor Triggers

Detecting whether a model has been poisoned is a longstanding problem in AI security. In this work, we present a practical scanner for identifying sleeper agent-style backdoors in causal language models. Our approach relies on two key findings: first, sleeper agents tend to memorize poisoning dat...

Evaluating Large Language Models for Security Bug Report Prediction

Early detection of security bug reports SBRs is critical for timely vulnerability mitigation. We present an evaluation of prompt-based engineering and fine-tuning approaches for predicting SBRs using Large Language Models LLMs. Our findings reveal a distinct trade-off between the two approaches...

PIDSMaker: Building and Evaluating Provenance-Based Intrusion Detection Systems

Recent provenance-based intrusion detection systems PIDSs have demonstrated strong potential for detecting advanced persistent threats APTs by applying machine learning to system provenance graphs. However, evaluating and comparing PIDSs remains difficult: prior work uses inconsistent preprocessi...

Llama-3.1-FoundationAI-SecurityLLM-Reasoning-8B Technical Report

We present Foundation-Sec-8B-Reasoning, the first open-source native reasoning model for cybersecurity. Built upon our previously released Foundation-Sec-8B base model derived from Llama-3.1-8B-Base, the model is trained through a two-stage process combining supervised fine-tuning SFT and...

TrojanPraise: Jailbreak LLMs Via Benign Fine-Tuning

The demand of customized large language models LLMs has led to commercial LLMs offering black-box fine-tuning APIs, yet this convenience introduces a critical security loophole: attackers could jailbreak the LLMs by fine-tuning them with malicious data. Though this security issue has recently bee...
