Original abstract

The increasing sophistication of cyber threats has elevated secure software development lifecycle (Secure SDLC) practices from a compliance checklist to a critical operational imperative.Organizations now embed security activities across all phases of software development, from requirements elicitation to deployment and maintenance [1].A cornerstone of Secure SDLC operations is Static Application Security Testing (SAST), which analyzes source code without execution to identify vulnerabilities such as injection flaws, buffer overflows, and insecure data flows.Traditional SAST tools, however, are predominantly rule-based scanners that match syntactic patterns against predefined vulnerability databases [2].While these tools provide deterministic outputs, they suffer from well-documented limitations: high false positive rates, inability to generalize to novel vulnerability patterns, and brittle heuristics that require extensive manual tuning for each codebase.Recent advances in LLMs have opened new possibilities for autonomous security analysis.Pre-trained on vast corpora of code and security documentation, models like CodeBERT [3] and GPT-based architectures can generate vulnerability reports, suggest patches, and even reason about complex control flows.However, pure neural approaches introduce a different set of challenges.LLMs are inherently stochastic and prone to hallucinationproducing plausiblesounding but semantically incorrect outputs that result in false positives or, worse,
