## Benchmarking Agent Architectures for LLM-Based Exploit Generation
๐ Overview
Offensive security tasks such as exploit generation require deep technical reasoning, contextual understanding, and adaptive planning. With the rise of Large Language Models (LLMs), multiple agent architectures have emerged to automate and enhance these tasks.
This project benchmarks and compares different LLM-based agent architectures to determine their effectiveness across exploit generation scenarios.
๐ฏ Research Question
Which agent architecture (prompt-based, tool-augmented, or multi-agent) performs best across different exploit generation task types in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and robustness?
๐ง Architectures Evaluated
1. ๐น Prompt-Based Systems
Single-shot and few-shot prompting
No external tools
Fast but limited reasoning depth
2. ๐ง Tool-Augmented Agents
Integrates external tools (e.g., vulnerability scanners, exploit databases)
Enhances retrieval and execution capabilities
More accurate but slightly slower
3. ๐ค Multi-Agent Systems
Multiple specialized agents:
Reconnaissance Agent
Planning Agent
Exploitation Agent
Collaborative problem solving
Best for complex tasks but computationally expensive
๐ฏ Objectives
โ
Implement multiple LLM-based agent architectures
โ
Evaluate performance across exploit generation tasks
โ
Compare reasoning, retrieval, and planning capabilities
โ
Provide guidelines for architecture selection
