Digital watermarking supports source attribution for AI-generated images, but its reliability depends on resistance to removal attacks. Some attacks attempt to remove watermarks by forcing the decoded watermark to differ from the original. However, this can produce an inverted watermark that remains detectable, causing...
Workspace agents combine large language models with execution harnesses to perform stateful, multi-step tasks that access or modify external resources. Existing benchmarks leave gaps in executable coverage of their runtime security risks, while evolving model capabilities, harnesses, tools, and threats motivate benchma...
Open-weight language models can be downloaded, modified, and deployed beyond their developers'control, limiting the effectiveness of centrally enforced safeguards. Recent work has therefore proposed \emph{trigger-tag} mechanisms that produce a detectable signal when a model is used under a target condition, such as gen...
Modern Computer Use Agents (CUAs) directly interact with graphical user interfaces and execute third-party web tools, exposing them to indirect prompt injection across every rendered page and tool response. While the Dual-LLM pattern is the primary system-level architecture offering formal security guarantees - using a...

Large language model (LLM)-based agents increasingly connect model-generated decisions to security-sensitive software capabilities such as command execution, filesystem access, network communication, browser control, and external tools. Existing analyses often use predefined sensitive operations as anchors, but operati...
Autonomous penetration testing agents conduct multi-step attacks by continuously adapting their plans and actions to target responses. As a common defense, honeypots can be deployed to divert these agents from real assets by presenting decoy services, while also supporting attack tracing and active counterattacks. Howe...
Coding agents have become increasingly long-horizon, autonomous, reliant on general-purpose shell and maintain their own persistent memory for self-improvement. While these capabilities have made the agents powerful, they have also made them harder to defend against external adversaries. Defenses that restrict this arc...
Machine learning-based intrusion detection systems (IDS) are critical for securing Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) environments. Most adversarial research against them perturbs the feature vector or the traffic that produces it, and depends on gradient access, repeated model queries, or a learned model of benign t...
SideKernel is developed: an open-source, local, microVM-based macOS sandbox for AI coding agents designed for usability, and it is discovered that only a few sandboxes are similar to SideKernel, and that among those, Docker Sandboxes and SideKernel score highest on capability features related to usability.
Modern large language models (LLMs) are trained on massive, largely unfiltered datasets, including content scraped from nearly every accessible website and user inputs. As a result, LLMs often memorize and reproduce personally sensitive information (PSI) such as birth dates, phone numbers, and home addresses. This lead...
GraphRAG pipelines construct auxiliary structures during offline indexing--semantic summaries, hierarchical edges, and pre-computed scores--that determine how retrieval is prioritised at query time. Prior attacks target only instance-level components (nodes, edges, triples), overlooking these schema-level structures. W...
Inter-agent communication is central to Large Language Model Multi-Agent Systems (LLM-MAS), but it introduces an underexplored vulnerability: Agent-in-the-Middle (AiTM) attacks that manipulate messages in transit without compromising the agents themselves. Prior work reports Attack Success Rates (ASR) approaching 100%...
Research Manager Mike Walker reflects on a career spanning hacker culture, cybersecurity, and AI, sharing lessons about trust, teamwork, leadership, and why solving difficult problems requires curiosity, judgment, agility—and an understanding of the rules. The post Learn the rules: The hacker mindset appeared first on Microsoft Research.

Critical flaws, compromised release channels and agentic AI threats landed within days of each other in mid-October 2026. Why “Black October” may say more about how well we now find weaknesses than about the attacks themselves. The post Black October? The Week AI Changed the Cybersecurity Conversation appeared first on GPT-Lab.
