arXiv:2606. 26356v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Practitioners of prompt-composed agentic systems report a recurring failure mode: editing one prompt module silently shifts the behavior of others despite no shared variable or executable dependency.

Isolation as a First-Class Principle for LLM-Agent System Safety: Concepts, Taxonomy, Challenges and Future Directions

arXiv:2607. 12406v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The capability of LLM agents to function as the ``brain'' of a system fundamentally expands the scope of analysis beyond a standalone model.

CIPL: A Channel-Aware Framework for Recoverable Privacy Leakage in LLM Agents

CIPL (Channel Inversion for Privacy Leakage) is a channel-aware framework designed to evaluate black-box privacy leakage in large language model agents. It models the leakage process through stages of sensitive source, selection, assembly, execution, observation, and extraction, assessing how selected sensitive units become attacker-recoverable outputs. Experiments across memory, retrieval, and tool-mediated targets, plus a live-agent case study, reveal that recoverability depends on factors beyond storage labels, such as observation surface, prompt alignment, retrieval depth, and provider behavior, and that a semantic audit can uncover disclosures missed by exact matching.
