Software security is increasingly critical as vulnerabilities in code can lead to significant risks for organizations. Recent research emphasizes the need for improved benchmarks and tools to assess the security capabilities of software development tools, particularly large language models. Studies have introduced frameworks like TOSSS to evaluate the ability of these models to select secure code snippets and automated methods for generating realistic vulnerability datasets. Additionally, cross-ecosystem analyses are being developed to identify vulnerabilities in Python applications that rely on native libraries. Addressing the imbalance in vulnerability detection through deep learning techniques is also a focus, as is the usability of identity-based software signing tools to enhance security workflows. These advancements are essential for builders to create more secure software and mitigate risks associated with vulnerabilities in their applications.
With their increasing capabilities, Large Language Models (LLMs) are now used across many industries. They have become useful tools for software engineers and support a wide range of development tasks...
Software vulnerabilities continue to grow in volume and remain difficult to detect in practice. Although learning-based vulnerability detection has progressed, existing benchmarks are largely function...
Python applications depend on native libraries that may be vendored within package distributions or installed on the host system. When vulnerabilities are discovered in these libraries, determining wh...
Vulnerability detection is crucial to protect software security. Nowadays, deep learning (DL) is the most promising technique to automate this detection task, leveraging its superior ability to extrac...
Binary Function Similarity Detection (BFSD) is a core problem in software security, supporting tasks such as vulnerability analysis, malware classification, and patch provenance. In the past few decad...
Identity-based software signing tools aim to make software artifact provenance verifiable while reducing the operational burden of long-lived key management. However, there is limited cross-tool longi...
