Beyond Function-Level Analysis: Context-Aware Reasoning for Inter-Procedural Vulnerability Detection

Yikun Li, Ting Zhang, Jieke Shi +10

Recent progress in ML and LLMs has improved vulnerability detection, and recent datasets have reduced label noise and unrelated code changes. However, most existing approaches stil…

Out of Distribution, Out of Luck: How Well Can LLMs Trained on Vulnerability Datasets Detect Top 25 CWE Weaknesses?

Yikun Li, Ngoc Tan Bui, Ting Zhang +16

Automated vulnerability detection research has made substantial progress, yet its real-world impact remains limited. Prior work found that current vulnerability datasets suffer fro…

R2Vul: Learning to Reason about Software Vulnerabilities with Reinforcement Learning and Structured Reasoning Distillation

Martin Weyssow, Chengran Yang, Junkai Chen +12

Large language models (LLMs) have shown promising performance in software vulnerability detection, yet their reasoning capabilities remain unreliable. We propose R2Vul, a method th…
