A Sound Semantics Approximation of Solidity for Enhanced Vulnerability Detection

As Solidity smart contracts become central to decentralized finance and governance, the exploitation of critical vulnerabilities has repeatedly resulted in severe financial losses. Existing state-of-the-art methods that rely on symbolic execution or syntactic patterns are unable to model the language semantics accurate...

Solidity Meets LLMs: A Transformer-Based Approach to Smart Contract Vulnerability Detection

The growing adoption of blockchain technologies, particularly the Ethereum platform, has amplified the critical role of smart contracts in decentralized applications. However, the increasing complexity and financial value of these contracts make them prime targets for cyber attacks. In this work, we present a transform...

Graph-Driven LLM-Augmented Stateful API Fuzzing for OWASP API Top 10

Security testing of REST APIs remains difficult because real-world OpenAPI specifications are often incomplete, many flaws are inherently stateful, and prevailing stateful fuzzers optimize for structural exploration rather than OWASP-aligned risk. This paper presents APIGFUZZ, a graph-driven, OWASP-aware black-box REST...

CAST: A Compiler-Based Framework for Systematically Testing LLM Compositional Safety

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in software pipelines, raising concerns about harmful behaviors in security-critical domains. Existing safety evaluations predominantly probe models with single prompts or short interactions, and therefore do not capture how safety behaves under multi-step workflows wh...
