Abstract
Today’s programs are implemented in a variety of languages and contain serious vulnerabilities which can be exploited to cause security breaches. These vulnerabilities have been exploited in real life and resulted in damages to related stakeholders such as program users. As most vulnerabilities belong to program code, many techniques have been applied to mitigate vulnerabilities before and after program deployment. Unfortunately, there is no comprehensive comparative analysis of different vulnerability mitigation works. As a result, there exists an obscure mapping between the techniques, the addressed vulnerabilities, and the limitations of different approaches. This paper attempts to address these issues. The paper extensively compares and contrasts the existing program security vulnerability mitigation (testing, static analysis, and hybrid analysis) and monitoring techniques. We also discuss other techniques employed to mitigate the most common program security vulnerabilities: secure programming, patching, and program transformation. The survey provides a comprehensive understanding of the current program vulnerability mitigation approaches and challenges as well as their key characteristics and limitations. Moreover, our discussion highlights the open issues and future research directions in the area of program security vulnerability mitigation and monitoring. i Table of Contents

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
