Benchmarking Automated Security Patch Backporting: How Far Are We?

The paper introduces Porting Benchmark, a curated dataset of 1,234 security patch backporting cases that span cross-version, cross-branch, and cross-repository scenarios, along with a common evaluation framework. Five tools—spanning program analysis, LLM prompting, and LLM agents—are evaluated under aligned settings, revealing that performance varies significantly across tools and that complex patches (Type-IV) see a sharp drop in success rate. The study identifies four root-cause categories for failures and demonstrates that reference-based benchmark scores may not fully capture real-world remediation, as executable validation uncovers additional integration issues.

From Threat Intelligence to Detection: Knowledge-driven Enrichment and Template-based Rule Grounding for Automated Sigma Rule Generation

The paper introduces AUTOSIGMA, an automated system that converts unstructured cyber threat intelligence reports into Sigma detection rules. It enriches input data with a structured knowledge base, matches it against existing Sigma rule repositories, and uses a large language model as a judge to validate the generated rules. Experiments on real-world APT reports and security blogs show that AUTOSIGMA outperforms other methods in rule validity, relevancy, MITRE ATT&CK coverage, and robustness to input quality.
