Hacking CTFs with Plain Agents

2024-12-03 · Rustem Turtayev, Artem Petrov, Dmitrii Volkov, Denis Volk

We saturate a high-school-level hacking benchmark with plain LLM agent design. Concretely, we obtain 95% performance on InterCode-CTF, a popular offensive security benchmark, using prompting, tool use, and multiple attempts. This beats prior work by Phuong et al. 2024 (29%) and Abramovich et al. 2024 (72%). Our results suggest that current LLMs have surpassed the high school level in offensive cybersecurity. Their hacking capabilities remain underelicited: our ReAct&Plan prompting strategy solves many challenges in 1-2 turns without complex engineering or advanced harnessing.

Autonomous LLM Agents & CTFs: A Second Look

2026-04-29 · Youness Bouchari, Matteo Boffa, Marco Mellia, Idilio Drago 외 arxiv

Large Language Model (LLM) agents are increasingly proposed to automate offensive security tasks, with recent studies reporting near human-level success rates in Capture-the-Flag (CTF) challenges. We here revisit these r…

CTFusion: A CTF-based Benchmark for LLM Agent Evaluation

2026-05-12 · Dongjun Lee, Ga-eun Bae, Insu Yun arxiv

Recent advances in Large Language Models (LLMs) have enabled agentic systems for complex, multi-step tasks; cybersecurity is emerging as a prominent application. To evaluate such agents, researchers widely adopt Capture …

The Shape of Data and Probability Measures

2015-09-15 · Diego Hernán Díaz Martínez, Facundo Mémoli, Washington Mio

We introduce the notion of multiscale covariance tensor fields (CTF) associated with Euclidean random variables as a gateway to the shape of their distributions. Multiscale CTFs quantify variation of the data about every…

EvilGenie: A Reward Hacking Benchmark

2025-11-26 · Jonathan Gabor, Jayson Lynch, Jonathan Rosenfeld arxiv

We introduce EvilGenie, a benchmark for reward hacking in programming settings. We source problems from LiveCodeBench and create an environment in which agents can easily reward hack, such as by hardcoding test cases or …

LLM Agent Honeypot: Monitoring AI Hacking Agents in the Wild

2024-10-17 · Reworr, Dmitrii Volkov

Attacks powered by Large Language Model (LLM) agents represent a growing threat to modern cybersecurity. To address this concern, we present LLM Honeypot, a system designed to monitor autonomous AI hacking agents. By aug…
