- Hardening Agent Benchmarks with Adversarial Hacker-Fixer Loops
Agent benchmarks score submissions with outcome verifiers that are typically hand-written and brittle, leaving them open to reward hacking. We audit 1,968 tasks across five terminal-agent benchmarks and find 323 (16%) hackable by frontier models given only the task description. This corrupts both le...
- Conceptualising Reflective Use: Toward A Process Perspective On Human-AI Interaction
The rapid diffusion of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) systems reshapes how individuals engage with information systems, requiring users to monitor, assess, and adapt their interaction with non-deterministic systems. Existing constructs capture elements of this engagement but do not accou...

Although recent omni models have made substantial progress in unified speech, vision, and text modeling, combining seamless real-time interaction with complex reasoning and tool use remains challenging. We present DuplexOmni, a ...
- sketch-plot: Progressive Editing for Text-to-Image Academic Figures
Text to image (T2I) models such as gpt-image-2 can now generate publication grade academic figures from a short prompt, but the output is a flat raster: a user who wants to change one arrow, one label, or one icon has to regenerate the whole image, which also disturbs the parts they wanted to keep. ...

- Brain-Prompt Injection: A Route-Safety Audit for BCI-LLM Agents
BCI-to-agent pipelines turn decoded neural activity into an authorization channel for tool-use agents, exposing a new attack surface we call \emph{brain-prompt injection}: signal-side perturbations, context-only injections, and adaptive dual-decoder attacks can all change the routed action while EEG...
- The Injection Paradox: Brand-Level Suppression in Safety-Trained LLM Recommendations via RAG Context Injection
We present a reproducible failure mode of safety training in RAG-based LLM recommendation -- the Injection Paradox -- in which prompt injections embedded in retrieved documents backfire against the attacker, suppressing the target brand below the injection-free baseline. In safety-trained Claude mod...
- Steganography Without Modification: Hidden Communication via LLM Seeds
We demonstrate that widely deployed Large Language Model (LLM) inference stacks harbor a steganographic channel that requires no modification to model weights, sampling code, or output distributions. The channel exploits a structural property of deterministic decoding: pseudo-random number generator...
- Unveiling Privacy Risks in Multi-modal Large Language Models: Task-specific Vulnerabilities and Mitigation Challenges
Privacy risks in text-only Large Language Models (LLMs) are well studied, particularly their tendency to memorize and leak sensitive information. However, Multi-modal Large Language Models (MLLMs), which process both text and images, introduce unique privacy challenges that remain underexplored. Com...
- Context-Fractured Decomposition Attacks on Tool-Using LLM Agents: Exploiting Artifact Provenance Gaps
Tool-using LLM agents interact with the world through actions that persist state in artifacts (e.g., workspace files or logs). Consequently, jailbreak defenses must reason about cross-step composition rather than isolated text. Yet most existing attacks and defenses, including ``multi-turn'' jailbre...
- Document-Authored Control-Signal Impersonation: A Low-Cost Indirect Prompt Attack on RAG Safety Boundaries
Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) systems often serialize user queries, retrieved documents, metadata, system labels, and task instructions into one natural-language prompt. We study a source-authority boundary failure in this design: attacker-authored retrieved text can impersonate metadata, pro...
- Oversight Has a Capacity: Calibrating Agent Guards to a Subjective, Fatiguing Human
As LLM agents begin to take real, irreversible actions (shell commands, file edits, deploys), the standard safety pattern is a human-in-the-loop approval gate: risky actions pause and wait for a person. We argue the gate is the easy part; the hard part is the judgment - which actions to stop - which...
- Towards Post-Quantum Secure Pharmacovigilance with ML-KEM and ML-DSA
Pharmacovigilance systems handle sensitive healthcare and drug-safety data, including adverse event reports and clinical observations. As quantum computing advances, classical public-key cryptographic systems such as RSA and elliptic-curve cryptography may become vulnerable, creating long-term risks...
- Pretrained, Frozen, Still Leaking: Auditing Cross-Encoder Attribute Transfer in EEG Foundation Models
EEG foundation-model releases are usually audited one endpoint at a time: raw-reconstruction, membership inference, identity linkage, or DP-SGD on the downstream head. We audit the same released embeddings under all four endpoints jointly, on BIOT, LaBraM, and EEGPT, and show that each single-endpoi...
- EnclaveScale: Hardware-Assisted Edge-DP for Secure Data Centre Power Telemetry
EnclaveScale is a distributed, hardware-assisted telemetry architecture providing post-extraction attestation, enabling operators to collaboratively model high-resolution generative AI power transients. Existing cryptographic techniques scale poorly for 10-Hz streaming or fail to authenticate origin...
- Customization under Fire: Plugin Poisoning in Text-to-Image Ecosystem
The prosperity of text-to-image (T2I) models has fostered a vibrant share-and-play ecosystem centered on Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) plugins, which allow users to customize and share model capabilities with ease. This democratization, however, comes with a hidden but severe security risk. Malicious u...
- PrivCode++: Latent-Conditioned Differentially Private Code Generation for Comprehensive Guarantees
Large language models fine-tuned on instruction-code pairs may memorize and subsequently leak sensitive training data. Existing differentially private (DP) code generation methods primarily protect code snippets while assuming prompts are public, which fails in realistic scenarios where prompts may ...
- Cheap Reward Hacking Detection
A small transformer encoder is trained to map Terminal-Wrench trajectories onto a unit sphere where embedding distance approximates the $L_1$ distance between reward and metadata signals. A linear probe on top of that embedding detects reward hacking on the cleaned test split with AUC $0.9467$ and T...
- Agentic Persona Generation with Critique-Refinement: An Industrial Evaluation
Personas are widely used in software engineering to support requirements elicitation, design, and validation, but their manual creation is costly, time-consuming, and hard to scale. Recent LLM-based approaches automate persona generation from textual data; however, they typically rely on single-shot...
- Empirical Study for Structured Output Control in LLMs for Software Engineering
LLM-generated outputs in software engineering rarely exist in isolation. They must plug into toolchains, APIs, and data pipelines that impose strict, often organization-specific structural contracts. A semantically correct output that violates the expected format is, from the consuming system's pers...
