Vals AI's CyberOffense benchmark shows AI agents can autonomously penetrate simulated corporate networks from a single public URL to admin privileges with zero human help. Meanwhile, open-weight models are approaching closed frontier models at building exploits, narrowing the cyber-capability gap between them.

    • The Vals CyberOffense benchmark has agents autonomously penetrate simulated corporate networks from a public URL alone, with automated logging and scoring
    • Open-weight GLM-5-3 builds exploits at nearly the level of top closed models, narrowing the capability gap
    • Democratized autonomous offensive capability raises new challenges for model release policy and defense
