OpenAI and Paradigm launch EVMbench to explore the application of AI Agents in the security of smart contracts

Odaily Planet Daily reports that OpenAI and the crypto investment firm Paradigm have announced a collaboration to launch EVMbench, a tool for evaluating AI agents’ capabilities in the field of smart contract security, including identifying, patching, and exploiting high-risk vulnerabilities.

Both parties stated that as AI’s abilities in coding and execution improve, it could be exploited by attackers or become a defensive tool. Therefore, it is necessary to test the security capabilities of AI systems in environments with real economic significance. EVMbench will offer multiple testing modes, including vulnerability detection, contract modification, elimination of exploitability, and full attack simulation in a sandbox chain environment.

Coinciding with the launch of this tool, DeFi protocol Moonwell and cross-chain liquidity protocol CrossCurve recently suffered smart contract vulnerability attacks, raising concerns about AI-assisted code security. EVMbench is reportedly built based on 120 selected vulnerability samples, covering various public audits and competition cases.

Industry analysts believe that with advances in AI technology, the threshold for identifying smart contract vulnerabilities may further decrease, and the game between security defense and attack capabilities is accelerating.
