TxBench benchmark for malicious transaction detection on EVM chains
Original title: TxBench: A Benchmark of Attack Transactions and Evidence-Backed Negatives on Seven EVM Chains
TxBench includes 1012 attacks worth $868 million from 602 incidents
TxBench is a benchmark of attack transactions and evidence-backed negatives from seven EVM chains. It accepts 1012 attacks from 602 incidents worth USD 868.1 million. The five-step pipeline rebuilds executions from free sources. Zero-shot LLMs find at most 0.43 of attacks.
- 846 contract exploits and 166 key compromises
- 98% of sampled attacks confirmed in blind review
- Negatives sampled from chain traffic near attacks
- Based on BlockSec incident library and EVM Hack Registry
From the original article
1 min read at arxiv.orgResearchers evaluate detectors of malicious smart-contract transactions on datasets that each paper assembles anew. Their positives come from incident trackers, whose citations mix attacks with setup steps and transactions that never ran, or from a detector's own output, which makes the evaluation circular; their negatives are ordinary transactions.
