LLM Hacking Benchmark: Testing AI's Ability to Exploit Real Vulnerabilities

As LLMs become more capable, understanding their role in security—both as a threat and as a tool—is critical. This experiment benchmarks how well leading AI models can identify real-world vulnerabilities, revealing significant gaps in their ability to recognize certain exploit patterns. The findings suggest that while LLMs may assist with some security tasks, they still require human guidance for sophisticated vulnerability detection.
