Last Secure Code Benchmark: Is the Code You Vibe Secure?

Vibe coding is a new software development paradigm in which human engineers prompt a large language model (LLM) agent to complete complex coding tasks with little supervision. Although vibe coding is increasingly adopted, is the generated code really safe to deploy in production? To investigate this question, we propose SUSVIBES, a benchmark consisting of 186 feature-request software engineering tasks from real-world open-source projects, for which, human programmers committed vulnerable implementations. We evaluate 12 widely used coding agentic settings with frontier models on the benchmark. Disturbingly, all agents perform poorly in terms of software security. Although 57% of the solutions from SWE-Agent with Claude 4 Sonnet are functionally correct, only 11.8% are secure. Further experiments demonstrate that preliminary security strategies, such as augmenting the feature request with vulnerability hints, cannot mitigate these security issues. Our findings raise serious concerns about the widespread adoption of vibe coding, particularly in security-sensitive applications. The code and dataset are available at https://github.com/LeiLiLab/susvibes. The leaderboard is at https://leililab.github.io/susvibes-leaderboard.

As vibe coding becomes increasingly capable and widespread, security vulnerabilities in even functionally correct solutions are a growing concern. When investigating functionally correct but insecure solutions, we find that the insecure agent is less than half as likely to conduct effective planning and testing for the hidden security risks behind the functional requirements. Motivated by this, we develop SECUREVIBE, a training recipe that explicitly targets planning and testing for code security. SECUREVIBE constructs training signals around these security behaviors. It includes supervised fine-tuning on the security suite with 4 security tasks, and post-training methods, SECUREVIBE_rl and SECUREVIBE_hg, to enhance security capabilities from verifiable execution feedback and hint-based self-supervision. Our SECUREVIBE outperforms the baseline on two types of security coding tasks across 4 benchmarks. Specifically, SECUREVIBE improves the security pass@1 by 6.9 points on BaxBench. The gains extend to unseen CWE categories, with improvements of 11.5 points on SusVibes. Meanwhile, it also improves functionality pass@1 by 13.6 points on the security coding task SusVibes and 4.1 points on the generic coding task SWE-bench Verified. Further analysis offers two practical insights: (i) diversifying supervision across security planning, coding, and testing strengthens security behaviors more effectively than adding coding trajectories alone, and (ii) hint-guided supervision is particularly valuable when the agent's existing security capabilities are insufficient to learn effectively from outcome feedback.

We introduce SecCodeBench-V2, a publicly released benchmark for evaluating Large Language Model (LLM) copilots' capabilities of generating secure code. SecCodeBench-V2 comprises 98 generation and fix scenarios derived from Alibaba Group's industrial productions, where the underlying security issues span 22 common CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) categories across five programming languages: Java, C, Python, Go, and JavaScript. SecCodeBench-V2 adopts a function-level task formulation: each scenario provides a complete project scaffold and requires the model to implement or patch a designated target function under fixed interfaces and dependencies. For each scenario, SecCodeBench-V2 provides executable proof-of-concept (PoC) test cases for both functional validation and security verification. All test cases are authored and double-reviewed by security experts, ensuring high fidelity, broad coverage, and reliable ground truth. Beyond the benchmark itself, we build a unified evaluation pipeline that assesses models primarily via dynamic execution. For most scenarios, we compile and run model-generated artifacts in isolated environments and execute PoC test cases to validate both functional correctness and security properties. For scenarios where security issues cannot be adjudicated with deterministic test cases, we additionally employ an LLM-as-a-judge oracle. To summarize performance across heterogeneous scenarios and difficulty levels, we design a Pass@K-based scoring protocol with principled aggregation over scenarios and severity, enabling holistic and comparable evaluation across models. Overall, SecCodeBench-V2 provides a rigorous and reproducible foundation for assessing the security posture of AI coding assistants, with results and artifacts released at https://alibaba.github.io/sec-code-bench. The benchmark is publicly available at https://github.com/alibaba/sec-code-bench.
