Hidden-in-Plain-Text: A Benchmark for Social-Web Indirect Prompt Injection in RAG
amplifying both their usefulness and their attack surface. Most notably, indirect prompt injection and retrieval poisoning attack the web-native carriers that survive ingestion pipelines and are very concerning
AdapTools: Adaptive Tool-based Indirect Prompt Injection Attacks on Agentic LLMs
powerful for complex task execution. However, this advancement introduces critical security vulnerabilities, particularly indirect prompt injection (IPI) attacks. Existing attack methods are limited by their reliance on static patterns
Log-To-Leak: Prompt Injection Attacks on Tool-Using LLM Agents via the Model Context Protocol
Protocol (MCP), but the natural-language metadata used to describe those tools creates a prompt-injection surface. Within this established tool-poisoning surface, we study Log-To-Leak, an additive
Appreciation Teaches Unauthorized Execution: Self-Evolution Degrades the Robustness of Personal Agents to Indirect Prompt Injection
party hides in content, the third party gains control of the agent. Such indirect prompt injection (IPI) poses severe risks. We investigate whether self-evolution degrades the robustness of personal
The Latent Diagnostic Taxonomy: A Framework for Constructing Classifiers and Diagnosing Their Decisions, Applied to Prompt Injection Detection
further human/safety review. Applying the framework to a classifier trained on a public prompt injection dataset, we find that a substantial fraction of its confident decisions (~ 77%) are not robust
CodeWhale: Argument Injection in `git_blame` Tool Allows Arbitrary File
Delegation Without Trust: An Empirical Gap Analysis of Identity, Authorization, and Runtime Governance in Multi-Agent LLM Systems
under an untrusted-model assumption: a correct system is one in which a fully prompt-injected agent still cannot exceed the authority explicitly delegated to it. Against this standard
Authority Is Not a String: A Capability-Scoped Harness for Prompt-Injection-Resistant Coding Agents
often carry ambient authority: naming a resource is sufficient to act on it. Indirect prompt injection exploits this authority by placing instructions in repository files or tool output that cause
AgentDyn: A Dynamic Open-Ended Benchmark for Evaluating Prompt Injection Attacks of Real-World Agent Security System
However, the external data which agent consumes also leads to the risk of indirect prompt injection attacks, where malicious instructions embedded in third-party content hijack agent behavior. Guided
Specifying and Maintaining Agentic Workflows: An Empirical Study of GitHub Agentic Workflows
instructions each appear in over 93% of labeled workflows, yet only 9.4% explicitly address prompt-injection defense. LLM classification achieves an F1 score of 0.818 and Cohen's Kappa
AegisAgent: An Autonomous Defense Agent Against Prompt Injection Attacks in LLM-HARs
understanding. However, the reliability of these systems is critically undermined by their vulnerability to prompt injection attacks, where attackers deliberately input deceptive instructions into LLMs. Traditional defenses, based on static
A Call to Action for a Secure-by-Design Generative AI Paradigm
Large language models have gained widespread prominence, yet their vulnerability to prompt injection and other adversarial attacks remains a critical concern. This paper argues for a security-by-design
without AST validation, import restrictions, or sandbox enforcement. Attackers can influence LLM output through prompt injection to exfiltrate all environment secrets and execute arbitrary code on the host system
It's a TRAP! Task-Redirecting Agent Persuasion Benchmark for Web Agents
professional networking. Their reliance on dynamic web content, however, makes them vulnerable to prompt injection attacks: adversarial instructions hidden in interface elements that persuade the agent to divert from
PVDetector: Detecting Prompt Injection Attacks on Purpose-Specific LLM Agents through Policy-Violation Concept Analysis
tailored to their designated roles. Such additional restrictions enlarge the attack surface, particularly to prompt injection (PI) attacks. To defend against such attacks, existing detection methods primarily rely on analyzing
Clouding the Mirror: Stealthy Prompt Injection Attacks Targeting LLM-based Phishing Detection
phishing site. While these approaches are promising, LLMs are inherently vulnerable to prompt injection (PI). Because attackers can fully control various elements of phishing sites, this creates the potential
Toward Trustworthy Agentic AI: A Multimodal Framework for Preventing Prompt Injection Attacks
GraphChain. Nevertheless, this agentic environment increases the probability of the occurrence of multimodal prompt injection (PI) attacks, in which concealed or malicious instructions carried in text, pictures, metadata, or agent
Adaptive Attacks on Trusted Monitors Subvert AI Control Protocols
simple adaptive attack vector by which the attacker embeds publicly known or zero-shot prompt injections in the model outputs. Using this tactic, frontier models consistently evade diverse monitors
From A2A Attacks to Envelope-Layer Defense: Red-Teaming Evaluation of LLM Agents and a Three-Layer Isomorphic Attack-Defense Model
over A2A is treated as a legitimate request, providing a natural channel for indirect prompt injection. Existing agent security evaluations mostly rely on a single metric, the attack success rate
