A Deterministic Security Runtime for LLM Agents on MPI and Batch-Scheduled HPC Systems: Consensus-Governed, Hardware-Rooted Supervision of Every Rank

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces Enclawed, a deterministic security runtime that protects large language model agents running on high‑performance computing (HPC) systems. It provides hardware‑rooted supervision for every rank, preventing compromised hosts from causing catastrophic failures, and enforces launch policies, lease‑based heartbeats, and automatic eviction or killing of tampered jobs. Enclawed operates without administrator privileges, integrates via Secure Shell, and adds minimal startup overhead while successfully blocking a wide range of simulated attacks.

MemMux: Runtime Verification and Honest Resource Attribution for Fleets of Parallel Coding Agents

MemMux is a local runtime designed to provide runtime verification and honest resource attribution for fleets of parallel coding agents. It emits observable signals that track per‑agent memory usage, ensure complete reclamation of terminated agents, detect escaped child processes, and keep the system from exceeding a bounded memory footprint. In benchmarks against tmux and a raw‑process baseline, MemMux keeps a fleet under a 7.5 GiB budget with zero swap, while ungoverned tools exceed the budget and spill into swap, and it achieves 100 % attribution with low overhead.

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

The paper examines the security challenges of delegating authority to autonomous LLM agents that act on users’ behalf. It introduces a threat model with four adversaries and eight security requirements, demonstrates that current frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen, MCP) fail to meet these standards, and presents an authorization broker that blocks all identified threats with minimal overhead. The broker is shown to resist numerous attacks and limits compromised sub‑agents to their delegated tasks, and its principles are implemented in VotalAI’s LLM Shield.

AgentWorm: Self-Propagating Attacks Across LLM Agent Ecosystems

arXiv:2603. 15727v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous LLM-based agents increasingly operate as long-running processes forming densely interconnected multi-agent ecosystems, whose security properties remain largely unexplored.
