Effective source recovery is critical to security applications such as malware analysis, vulnerability assessment, and legacy maintenance. Large Language Models (LLMs) are reshaping this field, shifting the paradigm away from rule-based heuristics to probabilistic and high fidelity semantic recovery of source code from …
Preprint Open access
Open-weight language models can be downloaded, modified, and deployed beyond their developers' control, limiting the effectiveness of centrally enforced safeguards. Recent work has therefore proposed \emph{trigger-tag} mechanisms that produce a detectable signal when a model is used under a target condition, such as ge …

Open-weight LLMs give downstream users control over the inference stack, but this flexibility can undermine post-release guarantees that sensitive knowledge has been modified or removed. Model editing and machine unlearning are used to modify or remove targeted knowledge without retraining models from scratch. However, …
