Abstract
Web-based applications are becoming more ubiquitous day by day, and among these applications, a new trend is emerging: rich Internet applications (RIAs), using technologies such as Ajax, Flex, or Silverlight, break away from the traditional approach of Web applications having server-side computation and synchronous communications between the web client and servers. RIAs introduce new challenges, new security vulnerabilities, and their behavior makes it difficult or impossible to test with current web-application security scanners. A new model is required to enable automated scanning of RIAs for security. In this paper, we evaluate the shortcomings of current approaches, we elaborate a framework that would permit automated scanning of RIAs, and we provide some directions to address the open problems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
