Large language models (LLMs) often appear to excel on public benchmarks, but these high scores may mask an overreliance on dataset-specific surface cues rather than true language understanding. We introduce the **Chameleon Benchmark Overfit Detector (C-BOD)**, a meta-evaluation framework designed to reveal such overfitting. C-BOD systematically rephrases benchmark inputs via a parameterized transformation that preserves semantic content and labels, enabling the detection of performance degradation indicative of superficial pattern reliance.We conduct extensive experiments across two datasets, three rephrasing models, and multiple distortion levels, evaluating 32 state-of-the-art LLMs. On the MMLU benchmark, C-BOD reveals an average performance drop of 2.75% under modest rephrasings, with over 80% of models exhibiting statistically significant differences. Notably, higher-performing models and larger LLMs tend to show greater sensitivity, suggesting a deeper dependence on benchmark-specific phrasing.Due to its dataset and model-agnostic design, C-BOD can be easily integrated into evaluation pipelines and offers a promising foundation for overfitting mitigation strategies. Our findings challenge the community to look beyond leaderboard scores and prioritize resilience and generalization in LLM evaluation.
