Research & Papers
3. Will the User Ever Know? Covert Indirect Prompt Injection Attacks on Tool-Using LLM Agents
arXiv:2608.30362v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As LLM agents take real-world actions through tools, indirect prompt injection (IPI) has emerged as a serious threat. The standard metric, Attack Success Rate (ASR), counts whether an injection succeeds but ignores what the user notices in the ...

4. Robust Adversarial Quantification via Conflict-Aware Evidential Deep Learning
arXiv:2506.05937v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reliability of deep learning models is critical for deployment in high-stakes applications, where out-of-distribution or adversarial inputs may lead to detrimental outcomes. Evidential Deep Learning, an efficient paradigm for uncertainty ...

5. MLCommons Jailbreak Benchmark v1.0
arXiv:2610.02827v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern AI systems are designed to refuse hazardous requests. A jailbreak is a prompt crafted to bypass those safeguards and elicit outputs that the system would normally refuse to provide. The MLCommons Jailbreak Benchmark v1.0 provides an end-to-e...

6. Detect and Suppress: A Mechanistic Defense against Adversarial Patches in VLA Models
arXiv:2610.03498v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Adversarial patches can disrupt Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models by manipulating visual observations, leading to failures in robot control. However, it remains poorly understood which internal mechanisms underlie these failures and how targete...

7. LPS-Bench: Benchmarking Safety Awareness of Computer-Use Agents in Long-Horizon Planning under Benign and Adversarial Scenarios
arXiv:2602.03255v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Computer-use agents (CUAs) execute multi-stage tasks through tools, where an early unsafe decision can propagate to consequential actions. Evaluating only final outcomes can miss such decisions, while constructing executable environments for ne...

8. Provable Benefits of Regularization: Fast Rates for Adversarial Imitation Learning
arXiv:2609.35698v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study adversarial imitation learning (AIL), in which an agent learns to imitate expert demonstrations by optimizing a policy against an adversarial reward that distinguishes expert and learner behavior. Historically, reward regularization an...
