MobileWorldSafety is a benchmark that evaluates the safety of large language model–powered GUI agents on Android by exposing them to 142 real-world risk tasks involving environmental injection attacks. The benchmark uses a two‑stage verification pipeline—rule‑based checks for clear cases and an LLM judge for ambiguous ones—to distinguish safety failures from capability failures. Experiments on six agents show high vulnerability, with attack success rates between 40.4% and 66.9%, highlighting that current agents often fail to remain safe when faced with adversarial content presented as normal mobile context.

AgentXploit is a two‑role auditing system that separates repository‑level attack‑path discovery from runtime exploitation for AI agents. The Analyzer Agent traces attacker‑controlled inputs to sensitive operations and records candidate attack paths, while the Exploiter Agent turns these paths into concrete attacks and refines them using runtime feedback. The system is evaluated on AgentXploit‑Bench, a benchmark of 72 reproducible vulnerabilities across 12 open‑source AI‑agent systems, achieving 59.3% end‑to‑end success compared to 38.4% for Codex, and 79.2% attack success on AgentDojo versus 52.7% for AgentVigil.

MobileInject is a benchmark that evaluates the security of multimodal large language model (MLLM)-based mobile agents against multimodal injection attacks. It offers a high‑fidelity interactive framework with 11 scenarios, 9 risk categories, and 108 executable risk instances, and introduces Cross‑Modal Consistency Injection along with two advanced attack methods—Multi‑Role Collaborative Deception and Reasoning‑Camouflage Injection—to intensify trust manipulation and reasoning hijacking. Experiments show that mobile agents are broadly vulnerable, especially to early‑stage reasoning hijacking, establishing MobileInject as a systematic tool for studying and improving mobile agent security.
