arXiv:2605. 17450v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As software systems grow increasingly complex, automated vulnerability repair (AVR) remains difficult because the materials available to a repair system are usually failure artifacts rather than repair guidance.

The paper introduces PLLM+, a hybrid pipeline for resolving Python dependency conflicts that combines deterministic steps—such as static AST inference, replaying known successful configurations from a solutions database, and live PyPI validation—with an LLM-based repair fallback. Evaluated on the HG2.9K benchmark of 2,891 failing snippets, PLLM+ successfully fixes 1,500 cases, outperforming the baseline PLLM and reducing average runtime from 368.7 to 71.8 seconds per snippet. The majority of fixes (1,495) come from replaying existing configurations, while the LLM fallback contributes only five additional solutions.

The paper examines how large‑language‑model (LLM) decompilers, which produce clean, idiomatic C code, are currently evaluated mainly on recompilability and passing shipped tests. It shows that these metrics can mask significant behavioral differences: a decompiled function may recompile and pass all tests yet diverge on other inputs or lose disclosed vulnerabilities. To address this, the authors propose Decompile‑Diverge, a behavioral oracle that synthesizes drivers, fuzzes inputs, and compares the decompiled code’s behavior to the original, revealing divergences in up to 13% of cases and exposing gaps in current evaluation suites.

arXiv:2607. 19843v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) have made automated program repair (APR) increasingly practical for real-world bugs, but repairing directly from bug reports remains underconstrained.
