Security of World-Model-Based Embodied AI: A Lifecycle of Threats, Defenses, and Evaluation
tools. We show that familiar attack families: poisoning, backdoors, adversarial examples, sensor spoofing, prompt injection, trajectory manipulation, and supply-chain attacks take on distinct meanings when they corrupt world states

SafeFlow: Semantic Information-Flow Control for Blocking Malicious Propagation in Multi-Agent Systems
global risk context before irreversible actions are committed. Evaluated on four benchmarks spanning prompt injection, jailbreak-based unsafe tool use, risky code execution, and harmful web-agent behavior, SafeFlow reduces
Agentic Permissions Policy Algebra for Taint Confinement in LLM Agents
Autonomous LLM agents processing mixed-confidentiality data face severe security risks from prompt injection attacks and reasoning errors. While dynamic Information Flow Control (IFC) provides structural security guarantees, traditional taint
Are You Still the Agent I Authorized? Earned Authority under a Fixed Ceiling for Evolving Agents
creates a distinct authorization problem. Tool-enabled agents can turn model errors and prompt injections into consequential external actions; when evolution occurs under a live grant, the subject exercising that
V-DEAL: Diagnosing Video Safety De-Calibration as an Understanding-Refusal Coupling Failure
visual understanding activates a weaker refusal tendency than textual understanding. Furthermore, we introduce a prompt injection intervention method that reduces attack success rates by an average of 48.24 percentage points
Reinforcement Learning for Large Language Model Selective Evidence Adoption from Contaminated Retrieval Results
Both trained policies reduce forbidden-content adoption and produce shorter, more focused responses, yet prompt-injection following does not improve. The paired gains are modest and fail to survive Holm
Know Your Agent: Reconnaissance-Driven Pentesting of AI Agents
used, and which agent weaknesses they exploit to give adversaries leverage in indirect prompt injection attacks. We instantiate these insights in Know Your Agent (KYA), a framework that automates black
The safety failures we are not instrumenting: a perspective on hidden safety-critical challenges in modern AI systems
identify under-recognized risk patterns, including overreliance, uncertainty and legitimacy laundering in retrieval, prompt injection, reward hacking, memory poisoning, evaluation deception, fictional human oversight, synthetic evidence pollution, and model collapse
Trusted Credentials, Untrusted Behavior: Benchmarking LLM-Agent Security in High-Performance Computing
hijacked authorized agent problem. Existing agent-security studies explain relevant mechanisms, such as indirect prompt injection and tool misuse, but generally evaluate them in web, enterprise, or personal-assistant settings
Adaptive Adversaries: A Multi-Turn, Multi-LLM Benchmark for LLM Agent Security
based agents process external content, exposing them to prompt injection and multi-turn manipulation. Most safety benchmarks evaluate defenders against fixed attack pools collected before evaluation, single-turn or multi
Persistent Sparse Autoencoders: Learning Feature Timescales in Language Models
features concentrate topic-level information in a persistent state. Moreover, as shown in a prompt-injection monitoring case study, slow features preserve detection signals and remain causally effective over long
Agent Skill Security: Threat Models, Attacks, Defenses, and Evaluation
packaged, shared, and reused across diverse applications. However, existing security research primarily focuses on prompt injection and runtime execution, leaving security risks throughout the broader skill lifecycle largely unexplored
How Agents Ask for Permission: User Permissions for AI Agents, from Interfaces to Enforcement
agents gain prevalance, users are increasingly exposed to the risks such systems entail. Prompt injection attacks, as well as hallucination, can cause agents to leak private information to third parties
Self-Evolving Agent Harnesses via Gated Semantic Quality-Diversity
much by the harness around its model as by the frozen model itself: its prompts, injected knowledge, runtime control, and configuration. In deployment the harness is often the only lever
Isolation as a First-Class Principle for LLM-Agent System Safety: Concepts, Taxonomy, Challenges and Future Directions

Distributed Denial of Science: How Indirect Data Poisoning of AI Systems Can Industrialize Scientific Fraud

Multi-Agent Firewall Architecture for Privacy Protection of Sensitive Data in Interactions with Language Models
proprietary code leakage prevention, and extensible components designed for future security enhancements such as prompt injection evasion. The framework's layered architecture enables deployment across heterogeneous environments, allowing organizations

Untrusted Content Masking for Web Agents with Security Guarantees
Defenses that provide security guarantees against prompt injection attacks rely on strict isolation between trusted instructions and untrusted data. In text-based environments such as tool-use APIs, this separation
