CVE-Factory: Scaling Expert-Level Agentic Tasks for Code Security Vulnerability
Paper • 2602.03012 • Published • 2
Abacus-cve-v1.1 is an iterative version of Abacus-cve, fine-tuned on an expanded dataset for security vulnerability fixing tasks.
Compared to Abacus-cve, this version is trained on an expanded dataset:
Abacus-cve-v1.1 is based on Qwen3-32B and fine-tuned from scratch using 18.8k distilled agent traces from CVE reproduction tasks. The traces were generated using Claude Opus 4.5 with a Mini SWE-Agent harness through the CVE-Factory pipeline.
Evaluated on LiveCVEBench-verified and PatchEval-verified with temperature=0.6, avg@5:
