How Diffusion Models Memorize
under memorization due to classifier-free guidance amplifying predictions and inducing overestimation; (ii) memorized prompts inject training images into noise predictions, forcing latent trajectories to converge and steering denoising toward
ReliabilityRAG: Effective and Provably Robust Defense for RAG-based Web-Search
documents. These systems, however, remain vulnerable to attacks on the retrieval corpus, such as prompt injection. RAG-based search systems (e.g., Google's Search AI Overview) present an interesting setting
SkillShield: Prompt-Space Security Skills for LLM Coding Agents
skills offline from known attacks or recorded agent failures. These skills are injected into the system prompt at session start and remain active throughout the tool-use loop. Unlike
LoopTrap: Termination Poisoning Attacks on LLM Agents
this self-directed loop facilitates autonomy, it also introduces a critical risk: by injecting malicious prompts into the agent's context, an adversary can distort the agent's termination judgment
ShareLock: A Stealthy Multi-Tool Threshold Poisoning Attack Against MCP
concerns such as Tool Poisoning Attack (TPA), which exploit LLM-server interactions to inject malicious prompts. Existing poisoning schemes typically adopt a monolithic plaintext embedding paradigm, which fails to withstand
Targeting World Models to Compromise Robot Learning Pipelines
directly implant dangerous trajectories into sold or uploaded datasets, our novel attack methods inject malicious prompts or compromising transition dynamics into visibly safe teleoperated datasets which are only activated once
LAAF: Logic-layer Automated Attack Framework A Systematic Red-Teaming Methodology for LPCI Vulnerabilities in Agentic Large Language Model Systems
pipelines, and external tool connectors face a class of attacks - Logic-layer Prompt Control Injection (LPCI) - for which no automated red-teaming instrument existed. We present LAAF (Logic-layer Automated
Uncovering Security Threats and Architecting Defenses in Autonomous Agents: A Case Study of OpenClaw
OpenClaw ecosystem. We systematically investigate its current threat landscape, highlighting critical vulnerabilities such as prompt injection-driven Remote Code Execution (RCE), sequential tool attack chains, context amnesia, and supply chain
Biosecurity-Aware AI: Agentic Risk Auditing of Soft Prompt Attacks on ESM-Based Variant Predictors
GFMs. SAGE functions through an interpretable and automated risk auditing loop. It injects soft prompt perturbations, monitors model behavior across training checkpoints, computes risk metrics such as AUROC and AUPR
Measuring and Exploiting Implicit Trust in LLM Tool-Calling Pipelines
stated purpose requires the data the attacker targets, and a sampling system prompt override that injects persistent instructions via VS Code's MCP implementation. Finally, we evaluated our attacks against
Governing the KV Cache: Preventing Timing Side-Channel Leakage in Multi-Tenant LLM Inference
Finally, isolation and cache efficiency need not conflict: identifying information resides only where prompts diverge, so injecting the salt at that boundary rather than the chain root retains an estimated
DecodingTrust-Agent Platform (DTap): A Controllable and Interactive Red-Teaming Platform for AI Agents
propose DTap-Red, the first autonomous red-teaming agent that systematically explores diverse injection vectors (e.g., prompt, tool, skill, environment, combinations) and autonomously discovers effective attack strategies tailored to varying
Verifiability-First Agents: Provable Observability and Lightweight Audit Agents for Controlling Autonomous LLM Systems
detection under stealthy strategies, and (iii) resilience of verifiability mechanisms to adversarial prompt and persona injection. Our approach shifts the evaluation focus from how likely misalignment is to how quickly
LangChain Core has Path Traversal vulnerabilites in legacy `load_prompt
CodePoisonRAG: Knowledge Poisoning Attacks on Retrieval-Augmented Code Generation
access to the victim's deployed knowledge base, retriever, re-ranker, generator, prompt, or defense mechanism and injects at most one artifact per anticipated programming task. We construct 85 poisoned
PraisonAI: Arbitrary File Read via `@file:` Mention Path Traversal
AULLM++: Structural Reasoning with Large Language Models for Micro-Expression Recognition
propose AULLM++, a reasoning-oriented framework leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs), which injects visual features into textual prompts as actionable semantic premises to guide inference. It formulates AU prediction into
Structural Role Injection in Handlebars-Templated LLM Prompts: Triple-Brace Interpolation, Delimiter Family, and the Limits of HTML Auto-Escaping
Large language model applications build prompts from templates, and Handlebars is a widely used templating engine and the default prompt-template format in Microsoft Semantic Kernel. Its double-brace
BadTemplate: A Training-Free Backdoor Attack via Chat Template Against Large Language Models
chat templates allows an attacker who controls the template to inject arbitrary strings into the system prompt without the user's notice. Building on this, we propose a training-free
