# Dataset Card: aastf/agent-security-traces

## Dataset Description

**Agent Security Traces** is a dataset of execution traces generated by
running the AASTF (Agentic AI Security Testing Framework) benchmark suite
across multiple LLMs and agentic frameworks. Each record captures a
complete agent interaction with an adversarial scenario, including the
model's tool calls, the sandbox's responses, and AASTF's security verdict.

This dataset enables researchers to:

- Study how different models respond to agentic attack scenarios.
- Train classifiers that detect tool-use vulnerabilities from execution traces.
- Reproduce and extend the AASTF benchmark results.
- Analyze the relationship between model capability, framework choice, and security posture.

### Source

Traces are generated using [AASTF](https://github.com/anonymousAAK/aastf)
v0.7.0 with the `benchmark-8x4.yaml` configuration (8 models, 4 frameworks,
100+ scenarios, 3 runs per scenario).

## Dataset Structure

### Fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `trace_id` | `string` | Unique identifier for this trace (UUID v4). |
| `model` | `string` | Model identifier (e.g., `gpt-4o`, `claude-3-5-sonnet`, `llama-3-1-70b`). |
| `framework` | `string` | Agentic framework used (e.g., `langgraph`, `crewai`, `openai_agents`, `pydantic_ai`). |
| `scenario_id` | `string` | AASTF scenario identifier (e.g., `ASI01-001`, `MCP03-002`, `CVE01-004`). |
| `category` | `string` | OWASP ASI or MCP/CVE category code (e.g., `ASI01`, `MCP03`, `CVE01`). |
| `severity` | `string` | Scenario severity level: `LOW`, `MEDIUM`, `HIGH`, or `CRITICAL`. |
| `verdict` | `string` | AASTF verdict: `VULNERABLE`, `REFUSAL_ECHO`, or `SAFE`. |
| `latency_ms` | `float` | End-to-end execution time in milliseconds. |
| `prompt` | `string` | The user-facing prompt sent to the agent (may include injected adversarial content). |
| `response` | `string` | The agent's final text response. |
| `tool_calls` | `list[object]` | Ordered list of tool calls made by the agent during execution. Each object contains `tool_name` (string), `inputs` (object), `output` (object), and `timestamp_ms` (float). |
| `injection_point` | `string` | Where the adversarial payload was injected: `user_prompt`, `tool_response`, `inter_agent_message`, `memory_retrieval`, or `mcp_discovery`. |
| `payload` | `string` | The adversarial payload injected into the scenario. |
| `detection_evidence` | `string` | Explanation of why the verdict was assigned (e.g., which forbidden tool was called). |
| `cwe_ids` | `list[string]` | CWE identifiers mapped to this scenario (e.g., `["CWE-74", "CWE-285"]`). |
| `nist_ai_rmf` | `list[string]` | NIST AI RMF subcategories (e.g., `["MG-2.2", "MP-4.1"]`). |
| `run_index` | `int` | Run number (0, 1, or 2) for statistical repetition. |
| `timestamp` | `string` | ISO 8601 timestamp of when the trace was recorded. |
| `aastf_version` | `string` | AASTF version used to generate the trace. |

### tool_calls Object Schema

Each element in the `tool_calls` array has the following structure:

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `tool_name` | `string` | Name of the tool invoked by the agent. |
| `inputs` | `object` | Key-value pairs of arguments passed to the tool. |
| `output` | `object` | The tool's response (from the AASTF sandbox). |
| `timestamp_ms` | `float` | Milliseconds elapsed since the start of the scenario run. |

## Dataset Statistics

| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Total traces | ~9,600 (8 models x 4 frameworks x 100 scenarios x 3 runs) |
| Unique scenarios | 100+ |
| OWASP ASI categories | 10 (ASI01--ASI10) |
| MCP categories | 6 (MCP01--MCP06) |
| CVE categories | 1 (CVE01, 8 scenarios) |
| Models | 8 |
| Frameworks | 4 |

## Intended Uses

- **Security research:** Analyze vulnerability patterns across models and frameworks.
- **Classifier training:** Build automated detectors for tool-use vulnerabilities.
- **Benchmarking:** Compare new models or defenses against the AASTF baseline.
- **Compliance evidence:** Demonstrate systematic security testing for EU AI Act and NIST AI RMF.

## Limitations

- Traces are generated in a sandbox environment; real-world agent behavior may differ.
- The dataset reflects the attack scenarios included in AASTF v0.7.0 and does not cover all possible agentic vulnerabilities.
- Model behavior is non-deterministic; results may vary across runs even with temperature=0.
- Cost and rate limits may cause some model-framework cells to have fewer than 3 runs.
