Large Language Models (LLMs) have transformed the natural language processing landscape and brought to life diverse applications.
We explore the intersection of LLMs and penetration testing to gain insight into their capabilities and challenges in the context of privilege escalation.
Additionally, we introduced the Findings, Action, Reasoning, and Results (FARR) Flow augmentation, a novel method to augment penetration testing write-ups to establish a fully automated pentesting simulation benchmark tailored for large language models.
Website hacking is a frequent attack type used by malicious actors to obtain confidential information, modify the integrity of web pages or make websites unavailable.
Cryptography and Security
We first evaluate the performance of LLMs, including GPT-4o and LLama 3. 1-405B, using the state-of-the-art PentestGPT tool.
What would the inputs be to a machine whose output is the destabilization of a robust democracy, or whose emanations could disrupt the political power of nations?
Traditional ethical hacking relies on skilled professionals and time-intensive command management, which limits its scalability and efficiency.
This technical report investigates the integration of generative AI (GenAI), specifically ChatGPT, into the practice of ethical hacking through a comprehensive experimental study and conceptual analysis.
This study explores the application of generative AI (GenAI) within manual exploitation and privilege escalation tasks in Linux-based penetration testing environments, two areas critical to comprehensive cybersecurity assessments.
