Diagonalization of skew-Hermitian dual quaternion matrices and -Hermitian dual quaternion matrices

Cailing Yao, Bingzhe Hou

In this article, we present the diagonalization of skew-Hermitian dual quaternion matrices in the sense of unitary equivalence. For a unit quaternion , we also obtain the diagon…

SWE-Duel: Towards a Self-Scaling Arena for Coding Agents

Wei Minn, Zhensu Sun, Lwin Khin Shar +1

Static coding benchmarks are fixed at release. Over time their tasks leak into training data, and stronger agents eventually saturate them. We argue that a benchmark should instead…

Trustworthy Runtime Error Healing in Real-World Repositories: A Benchmark and Guardrail

Gou Tan, Pengfei Chen, Zhensu Sun +9

Runtime error healing lets a crashed program continue by generating code that repairs its live runtime state. Recent work shows that LLMs can generate such healing code, but it is…

Path2Spec: Path-Aware Specification Generation via Large Language Models

Dan Huang, Zhensu Sun, Huihui Huang +4

Formal specifications are critical for program verification, comprehension, and maintenance. However, manually writing them is costly and difficult to scale. Recent studies have sh…

VulContextBench: A Benchmark for Security Context Retrieval in Coding Agents

Yikun Li, Jinfeng Jiang, Yuheng Yieh +6

Vulnerability-detection benchmarks score the verdict an agent reaches, not the evidence it gathered. A model that recalls a CVE from pretraining therefore scores the same as one th…

CoSA: Context-Aware Severity Assessment via Context Analysis with Large Language Models

Jinfeng Jiang, Yikun Li, Chengran Yang +6

Accurate vulnerability severity assessment is essential for prioritizing remediation, yet manually assessing Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base metrics remains labor-i…

AgentChaos: Chaos Engineering for Agent Systems via Programmatic Fault Injection

Gou Tan, Zhensu Sun, Jieke Shi +10

Agent systems rely on LLM APIs for every response, but these APIs can return server errors, truncated responses, or corrupted content that propagates through downstream agents and…

Graph Is the Verifier: Agentic Reinforcement Learning for Interprocedural Vulnerability Detection

Yikun Li, Ting Zhang, Jiakun Liu +9

Real-world vulnerabilities often span multiple functions, yet most learning-based detectors classify each function in isolation: on a sample of real CVEs, we find that 71.7% of vul…

Automated Repair of TEE Partitioning Issues via DSL-Guided and LLM-Assisted Patching

Chengyan Ma, Jieke Shi, Ruidong Han +4

Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) provide hardware-based isolation to protect sensitive data and computations from potentially compromised operating systems (OS). However, TEE…

Finding Missing Input Validation in TEEs via LLM-Assisted Symbolic Execution

Chengyan Ma, Jieke Shi, Ruidong Han +3

Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) provide hardware-enforced isolation that protects sensitive code and data from untrusted software. Despite their strong security guarantees, a…

Beyond the Tip of the Iceberg: Understanding SATD in Dockerfiles through the Lens of Co-evolution

Wei Minn, Yan Naing Tun, Biniam Fesseha Demissie +5

Dockerfiles enable the creation of portable container-based execution environments for the application code, and have become an important part of the modern software development pr…

An Execution-Verified Multi-Language Benchmark for Code Semantic Reasoning

Yikun Li, Jinfeng Jiang, Ting Zhang +7

Evaluating whether large language models (LLMs) can recover execution-relevant program structure, rather than only produce code that passes tests, remains an open problem. Existing…

TitanCA: Lessons from Orchestrating LLM Agents to Discover 100+ CVEs

Ting Zhang, Yikun Li, Chengran Yang +15

Software vulnerabilities remain one of the most persistent threats to modern digital infrastructure. While static application security testing (SAST) tools have long served as the…

Revisiting Vulnerability Patch Identification on Data in the Wild

Ivana Clairine Irsan, Ratnadira Widyasari, Ting Zhang +7

Attacks can exploit zero-day or one-day vulnerabilities that are not publicly disclosed. To detect these vulnerabilities, security researchers monitor development activities in ope…

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…

Autoregressive, Yet Revisable: In Decoding Revision for Secure Code Generation

Chengran Yang, Zichao Wei, Heminghao Deng +6

Large Language Model (LLM) based code generation is predominantly formulated as a strictly monotonic process, appending tokens linearly to an immutable prefix. This formulation con…

PenForge: On-the-Fly Expert Agent Construction for Automated Penetration Testing

Huihui Huang, Jieke Shi, Junkai Chen +6

Penetration testing is essential for identifying vulnerabilities in web applications before real adversaries can exploit them. Recent work has explored automating this process with…

LIDL: LLM Integration Defect Localization via Knowledge Graph-Enhanced Multi-Agent Analysis

Gou Tan, Zilong He, Min Li +8

LLM-integrated software, which embeds or interacts with large language models (LLMs) as functional components, exhibits probabilistic and context-dependent behaviors that fundament…
