arXiv:2608. 08027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Prompt injection is a critical security threat in large language model (LLM) applications, where attackers hijack model behavior by embedding malicious instructions in user or external data.

The paper evaluates three AI model security scanners—ModelScan, ModelAudit, and Fickling—using a benchmark of 170 Pickle and PyTorch artifacts from 145 families, 135 of which have binary security labels. It distinguishes coverage metrics such as non‑N/A coverage, analysis completion, and definitive security decisions, finding that ModelAudit achieved 100% definitive decisions, Fickling 81.5%, and ModelScan 49.6%. When a definitive judgment was made, ModelScan reached perfect precision, recall, and F1, while Fickling added no unique true positives beyond those found by the other tools.

The paper introduces the Latent Diagnostic Taxonomy, a framework that builds a dimensionality‑optimized classifier and a diagnostic tool to assess the trustworthiness of its confident predictions. It identifies a small set of influential prompts (latent support vectors) that reveal tokens which can change the classifier’s output, and uses these tokens to create a taxonomy that classifies prompts into safe, heuristic bias, heuristic override, or insufficient context categories. Applied to a prompt‑injection detection model, the framework shows that about 77% of confident decisions are fragile to a single token, distinguishing between calibration failures and exploitable shortcuts, and offers remediation strategies for each taxonomy zone.

Large language models (LLMs) are vulnerable to backdoor attacks, where hidden triggers induce malicious outputs. Existing defenses generally fall into inference-time detection or training-time mitigation, but face two key limitations.
