Needles at Scale: LLM-Assisted Target Selection for Windows Vulnerability Research

ArXi:2606.01364v1 Announce Type: cross The attack surface of a modern operating system is a haystack: thousands of signed binaries and millions of functions, almost none relevant to any given vulnerability. A human analyst or an LLM agent must pick the function worth reading before analyzing it. At whole-OS scope, this target selection, not the analysis, is the binding constraint. We present Symbolicate-Enrich-Sample, a low-cost batch pipeline that turns a corpus of production Windows binaries into a queryable, priority-ranked research queue.
