Text wrapped in a trigger can be made behaviorally invisible to a language model: omitted from summaries and quotations, ignored in question answering, and left unflagged by downstream filtering. We study this selective blindness as a dual-use information-flow primitive, a supply-chain backdoor, and a white-box auditin...
Agent skills encode operational procedures and domain expertise as reusable knowledge assets, yet their distribution in plaintext exposes them to unauthorized copying and leakage. However, practical mechanisms for skill ownership verification and leakage tracing remain underdeveloped. Watermark embedding before distrib...
Large Language Models accelerate software development but introduce severe security vulnerabilities. This systematic review investigates security risks in automated coding, benchmark limitations, and the role of human developers. Findings indicate that models frequently generate insecure code and faulty patches due to...
A deception detector is only as useful as the trust its alarms deserve. Like a polygraph, detectors that read a language model's internal activations can catch deceptive responses that look honest. Yet current detectors depend on which layers they read, weaken on broader tests, and do not state how certain their alarms...

This paper makes the following key observations: Shallow exits are consistently more robust to jailbreak attacks than deeper ones; Exit depth affects how easily the adversarial suffix can be optimized, with deeper exits reaching lower attack loss; and adversarial suffixes affect utility uniformly across exit depths.
GAMW is proposed, a watermark injection framework integrated into the TTS generation process that improves decoding accuracy over the strongest baseline by 9.2 and 23.5 percentage points under individual and compound perturbations, respectively, while maintaining competitive speech quality.
AI coding agents now write much of the code that ships, yet whether that code is secure remains unclear. We introduce the Last Secure Code Benchmark, a comprehensive evaluation of secure code generation by coding agents. Built from 150 real vulnerabilities, its 450 tasks span seven widely used languages (Java, C, C++,...
Model merging has become widely adopted for enhancing the task-specific performance of Large Language Models (LLMs) without additional training. While the specialized model from third-party platforms may undergo safety audits (e.g., backdoor detection), we reveal a novel and critical threat: One-sided Merging-Condition...
We study autoregressive token generation through the notion of sequential samplers: A circuit that samples the next symbol only given the previous ones and possibly a small amount of state. We show that (1) a sequential sampler with $k$ bits of state can be simulated by a stateless one at a roughly $O(2^{k})$ size over...
Robustness tests for tool-using agents often change the agent's environment, for example by hiding a hostile note in an invoice, and then judge the agent by what it does. The result tells us about the original task only if the changed test case is still a valid test of that task. Many evaluations decide this with weak...
Having demonstrated a strong potential for automating vulnerability discovery, AI agents can also be used to attack software systems at scale. Today's software systems need mechanisms to level the playing field by slowing down potential attacks, giving them time to patch vulnerabilities and strengthen software. Along t...
Smart glasses are a promising platform for vision-language assistants, but private split inference remains expensive: protecting visual representations before transmission does not remove the cost of on-device vision encoding, wide protected tokens, or hardware-unaware execution. We present SAGE (Smart-glasses-Aware Gu...
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.
