Vulnerability Detection and Automated Secure Patch Generation for Source Code

A system that detects vulnerabilities in source code and generates secure patches automatically.

Pythonscikit-learnWiresharkOpenSSL

A system that detects vulnerabilities in source code and generates secure patches automatically. This reference project walks through the whole job, from the problem and the design to the build and the evaluation, so that a developer can study how it works, run it and extend it.

It suits learners who want practical security experience: understanding the threat, building the defence or detector, testing it against realistic attacks and reporting the results.

The main parts are security and privacy controls such as encryption and access control, a realistic threat model, the detection or protection mechanism itself, testing against sample attacks, and reporting and alerting of findings. The reference build uses Python, scikit-learn, Wireshark, and OpenSSL, with a clear project structure, setup instructions and sample data so that it can be run and extended.
