Abstract:DARPA’s AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC) showed that cyber reasoning systems (CRSs) can go beyond vulnerability discovery to autonomously confirm and patch bugs: seven teams built such systems and open-sourced them after the competition. Yet all seven open-sourced CRSs remain largely unusable outside their original teams, each bound to the competition cloud infrastructure that no longer exists. We present OSS-CRS, an open, locally deployable framework for running and combining CRS techniques against real-world open-source projects, with budget-aware resource management. We ported the first-place system (Atlantis) and discovered 10 previously unknown bugs (three of high severity) across 8 OSS-Fuzz projects. OSS-CRS is publicly available.
