Position Matters: Feature Inversion Attacks in ViT Split Inference with Token Reduction and Shuffling

This work shows that, despite disrupting the spatial structure required by conventional reconstruction attacks, transmitted token embeddings retain substantial positional information, and introduces the Spatially Aligned Reconstruction Attack (SARA), a unified pipeline that predicts token positions, restores their spat...

Who Judges the Judges? A Chinese Safety QA Benchmark for Evaluating LLM Responses and Safety Judges

C-SafeQA, a policy-grounded benchmark for response-level Chinese safety evaluation, is introduced, with substantial trade-offs between unsafe-response recall and risk-query-conditioned safe-response false positive rate.

Athena: Vulnerability-Affected Library Identification via Knowledge Graph Completion

Athea, the first graph-based approach for vulnerability affected library identification, is proposed, which models vulnerability databases as a knowledge graph and reformulates the identification problem as knowledge graph completion (KGC).

HiveTraceGuard-Pro: A Compact Generative Guardrail for Prompt Injection, Jailbreaks, and Adversarial Obfuscation

This work presents HiveTraceGuard-Pro, a 0.6B generative guardrail LoRA-tuned from Qwen3-0.6B that has the highest clean Russian robustness combined-F1 and Russian prompt-injection recall and releases the merged weights on Hugging Face under Apache-2.0.

Differentially Private Paired Table-Image Multimodal Synthesis

DP-TabImage is proposed, a modality-specialized framework for private paired synthesis that achieves a strong balance among tabular fidelity, image fidelity, and cross-modal alignment and reveals that visual warm-up primarily improves marginal image fidelity, whereas aligned table-image warm-up is critical for improvin...

SoK: When Safe Agents Fail Together: The Security of Multi Agent LLM Systems

This work systematizes MAS security through an execution-centered analysis of 197 works, introducing an A-I-R framework that organizes attacks by adversary position, interaction interface, and resulting system-level risk, unifying otherwise fragmented attack mechanisms across MAS.

The Safeguard Worked. Is the LLM System Safer?

This work determines what each reported result implies for that question: how much help with harmful tasks the service still gives an attacker who keeps adapting or finds another way in.

EvoFlint: An Evolutionary Atlas of Multi-Turn LLM Vulnerabilities

This work argues that red-teaming is better framed as a search problem: discover, organize, and iteratively refine a diverse archive of attack strategies, producing a structured map of how a target model fails rather than a list of one-off successes.

Does Reasoning Mitigate Backdoor Attacks? A Neuro-Symbolic Perspective

This paper claims that an in-depth investigation of the adversarial robustness of NeSy models is necessary and provides the first systematic evaluation of backdoor attacks against NeSy, and shows that while NeSy models are indeed more robust than their neural counterpart on average, their robustness vastly depend on th...

Capability-Gated Language Models: Security Composes, Utility Does Not

Deployed language model safeguards (safety fine-tuning, filtering, unlearning) vary by principal only outside the model weights: filters are reconfigured, tiers are multiplied, and artefacts are reissued; inside one set of weights every request meets the same model configuration. This motivates us to define capability-...

Workload Identification with Physical Side Channels for AI Governance

It is shown that an external observer can identify the class of the workload running on an NVIDIA H200 from its power draw, and adversarial traces are recorded, offering initial insights beyond genuine activities and a dataset for developing and testing stronger evasion mechanisms.

Delegation Without Trust: An Empirical Gap Analysis of Identity, Authorization, and Runtime Governance in Multi-Agent LLM Systems

It is argued that agent security must be evaluated 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, and an authorization broker is implemented that closes the gap.
