The Disruptive Impact of Large Language Models on Capture the Flag Competitions and the Path Toward Fair Play
arXiv:2607.25425v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Capture the Flag (CTF) competitions are among cybersecurity's most effective training grounds, developing practical skill across cryptography, web exploitation, and binary exploitation. Large language models (LLMs) can now solve a growing share of challenges with minimal human input, raising urgent questions about fairness, the validity of rankings, and whether participation still delivers the learning that justifies the effort.
