ContraFix: Agentic Vulnerability Repair via Differential Runtime Evidence and Skill Reuse

Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly used for automated vulnerability repair (AVR), where repository-level reasoning enables them to inspect context and produce source-code patches. However, recent empirical results show that these agents still struggle with real-world vulnerabilities. Their main failure mode is semantic misunderstanding: choosing a repair direction that does not match the root cause. We identify two reasons for this gap. Existing agents usually reason from the failing execution alone. A crash report can pinpoint where the program failed, but it does not reveal which variable or state transition, among many candidates near the fault site, separates the crashing behavior from safe execution. As a result, agents often produce symptom-oriented patches instead of causal fixes. Moreover, evidence collected for one vulnerability is rarely retained, so similar cases in later repositories must be diagnosed again from scratch. We present ContraFix, an agentic AVR framework that couples differential runtime evidence with reusable repair skills. Its Mutator constructs PoC variants that straddle the failure boundary; its Analyzer inserts state probes around the fault region and summarizes divergences between crashing and non-crashing executions into a repair specification; and its Patcher converts the specification into verified source patches. Each successful repair updates a two-track skill base containing repair specifications and mutation strategies, which are retrieved through a three-tier policy for future instances. On SEC-Bench (C/C++, 200 instances) and PatchEval (Go, Python, JavaScript, 225 instances), ContraFix with GPT-5-mini resolves 84.0% and 73.8% of the tasks, respectively, achieving state-of-the-art performance on both benchmarks while costing less than one-third of the strongest comparable baseline.

Degradation-Aware Blur-Segmentation of Brain Tumor

Multimodal 3D MRI brain tumor segmentation is a pivotal step in radiotherapy target delineation, surgical planning and post-treatment assessment. Existing methods often assume artifact-free MRI images. However, inevitable patient motion during scanning introduces artifacts and blur that degrade boundary and texture features, leading to poor segmentation performance. To bridge this gap, we introduce Degradation-Aware Blur-Segmentation Net (DABSeg), a synchronous deblurring 3D multimodal MRI segmentation network that unifies blur removal and accurate segmentation. Specifically, we propose a feature-domain motion-deblurring stem to compensate for blur and rebalance intensity. Concurrently, the backbone network embeds a blur-aware cross-modal cross-attention module and multi-scale residual aggregation to yield effective modality complementarity. Notably, we optimize a joint loss that combines weighted Dice with a clear-reference reconstruction term, where imbalanced weights are applied to small targets to boost learning intensity and predictive stability for small lesions and border regions. Systematic comparisons and ablation experiments on the BraTS2020 dataset under both clear and degenerative conditions consistently demonstrate that DABSeg surpasses state-of-the-art methods in tumor Dice score and boundary precision. These results validate the effectiveness of degenerative-aware cross-task collaborative learning in improving the robustness and clinical utility of multi-modal 3D brain tumor segmentation under realistic degenerative conditions.
