The lightning talk will introduce an LLM-guided privilege-escalation tool designed for evaluating different LLMs and prompt strategies against a novel pen-testing benchmark.
TL;DR: you got a new pentesting buddy who can help you hack away.
We analyze the impact of different prompt designs, benefits
of in-context learning, and the advantages of offering highlevel guidance to LLMs. We discuss challenging areas for
LLMs, including maintaining focus during testing, coping
with errors, and finally compare them with both stochastic
parrots as well as with human hackers.
The research will be published on arxiv.org the week of hack.lu.
