LLMs struggle with autonomous vehicle software analysis due to build integration issues

Researchers have explored the use of Large Language Models (LLMs) to automate the dynamic analysis of software vulnerabilities in autonomous vehicles, specifically focusing on the Autoware open-source driving stack. The study found that while LLMs can generate test artifacts, the primary challenge lies in integrating these artifacts into the vehicle's complex build system, rather than the generation or fuzzing process itself. Specifically, an 80% compilation failure rate was attributed to dependency wiring issues, and even the best-performing LLM struggled to produce fully executable harnesses for fuzzing. AI

IMPACT Highlights build integration as a key bottleneck for LLM-assisted software analysis in safety-critical systems.

    LLM-Assisted Dynamic Threat Analysis for Attacker-Reachable Software Weaknesses in Autonomous Vehicles

    arXiv:2608.13450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous vehicles depend on large safety-critical software stacks, where weaknesses reachable from adversarial inputs may affect steering, braking, or other control decisions. Static analysis can identify candidate sites, but dy…
