Efficient and Adaptable Detection of Malicious LLM Prompts via Bootstrap Aggregation
However, these systems remain susceptible to malicious prompts that induce unsafe or policy-violating behavior through harmful requests, jailbreak techniques, and prompt injection attacks. Existing defenses face fundamental limitations: black
VIGIL: Defending LLM Agents Against Tool Stream Injection via Verify-Before-Commit
agents operating in open environments face escalating risks from indirect prompt injection, particularly within the tool stream where manipulated metadata and runtime feedback hijack execution flow. Existing defenses encounter
Analyzing Defensive Misdirection Against Model-Guided Automated Attacks on Agentic AI Systems
instructions, process external data, invoke tools, and coordinate with other agents. These capabilities make prompt-injection and jailbreak attacks more consequential, especially as attackers adopt model-guided automation to scale
MCP Atlassian has SSRF via unvalidated X-Atlassian-Jira-Url
From Secure Agentic AI to Secure Agentic Web: Challenges, Threats, and Future Directions
Secure Agentic Web. We first summarize a component-aligned threat taxonomy covering prompt abuse, environment injection, memory attacks, toolchain abuse, model tampering, and agent network attacks. We then review defense
Disentangling Adversarial Prompts: A Semantic-Graph Defense for Robust LLM Security
increasingly vulnerable to adversarial prompts that exploit semantic ambiguities to bypass safety mechanisms, resulting in harmful or inappropriate outputs. Such attacks, including jailbreaking and prompt injection, pose significant risks
The Gate Is Only as Honest as Its Contracts: ContractGuard for the Contract Layer of Risk-Aware Causal Gating
Risk-Aware Causal Gating (RACG) defends tool-augmented LLM agents against indirect prompt injection by removing dangerous tools from the agent's visible action space, so that even a fully
Soft Instruction De-escalation Defense
agentic systems that interact with an external environment; this makes them susceptible to prompt injections when dealing with untrusted data. To overcome this limitation, we propose SIC (Soft Instruction Control
Are GUI Agents Focused Enough? Automated Distraction via Semantic-level UI Element Injection
Adversarial perturbations typically require white-box access, which is unavailable for commercial systems, while prompt injection is increasingly mitigated by stronger safety alignment. To study robustness under a more practical
When Skills Lie: Hidden-Comment Injection in LLM Agents
Skills to describe available tools and recommended procedures. We study a hidden-comment prompt injection risk in this documentation layer: when a Markdown Skill is rendered to HTML, HTML comment

LLM-Enabled Open-Source Systems in the Wild: An Empirical Study of Vulnerabilities in GitHub Security Advisories
OWASP-based analysis reveals recurring architectural risk patterns, especially Supply Chain, Excessive Agency, and Prompt Injection, which often co-occur across multiple stages of execution. These results suggest that existing
Systematization of Knowledge: Security and Safety in the Model Context Protocol Ecosystem

CALYREX: Cross-Attention LaYeR EXtended Transformers for System Prompt Anchoring
untrusted user content with equal structural priority -- a mismatch that leaves models vulnerable to prompt injection and instruction erosion over extended contexts. We propose CALYREX (Cross-Attention LaYeR EXtended transformers
Trust in LLM-controlled Robotics: a Survey of Security Threats, Defenses and Challenges
taxonomy of attack vectors, covering topics such as jailbreaking, backdoor attacks, and multi-modal prompt injection. In response, we analyze and categorize a range of defense mechanisms, from formal safety
Sentra-Guard: A Multilingual Human-AI Framework for Real-Time Defense Against Adversarial LLM Jailbreaks
time modular defense system named Sentra-Guard. The system detects and mitigates jailbreak and prompt injection attacks targeting large language models (LLMs). The framework uses a hybrid architecture with FAISS
OpenSec: Measuring Incident Response Agent Calibration Under Adversarial Evidence
