CIPHER - Insecure Prompts: leaderboard

CIPHER (Manolov et al., 2026) Python cryptography tasks under prompts that add plausible insecure guidance (for example disabling certificate validation for compatibility): 150 prompts with five samples each (750 generations). A GPT-4o judge, run several times with a majority vote, labels each generation against a taxonomy of 58 cryptographic vulnerability types; an omitted security-critical step counts as a vulnerability. The score is the percentage of generations with at least one vulnerability; lower is better.

Metric: Vulnerability rate (% of 750 generations with at least one vulnerability; 150 insecure-guidance prompts x 5 samples; GPT-4o judge, majority of several passes, CIPHER taxonomy). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around 2035. 7 models tracked.
