Jun 24, 2024, 03:07 PM

Google Project Zero has introduced 'Naptime,' an AI-powered framework designed to enhance vulnerability research. This new tool leverages large language models (LLMs) to significantly improve the identification and exploitation of software flaws. Naptime has shown a 20-fold increase in performance on tasks such as exploiting buffer overflows and memory corruption. By providing LLMs with advanced tools and time to process information, Project Zero aims to revolutionize automated vulnerability discovery in cybersecurity. The framework boosts LLMs' CyberSecEval 2 performance, achieving 20x improvements.
