LLMs automate cybersecurity attack path generation with CVE2AP

Researchers have developed CVE2AP, a novel approach that utilizes large language models (LLMs) to automatically generate PDDL-encoded attack paths from natural language CVE descriptions. This method aims to overcome the limitations of manual AP modeling by leveraging LLMs' reasoning capabilities to transform threat intelligence into formal representations. CVE2AP incorporates an error-feedback mechanism for iterative refinement and has demonstrated effective generation of high-quality PDDL-encoded attack paths, with GPT-5.5 showing a favorable quality-cost trade-off.
