Not Where You Think: Protecting Location Privacy Against Reasoning-Based Geolocation

Shanghao Shi, Jian Xiao, Hao Li +5

Recent large reasoning models can infer where ordinary photos were taken using only visual information, creating a serious location privacy risk even when metadata and obvious geog…

Mirage: Targeted Jailbreaks Against Post-Generation Safety Checkers in Multimodal Diffusion Models

Shanghao Shi, Chaoyu Zhang, Heng Jin +4

Post-generation safety checkers are widely employed in diffusion-model pipelines to prevent unsafe generated content from reaching users. In this paper, we show that these safety c…

Think Twice Before You Act: Protecting LLM Agents Against Tool Description Poisoning via Isolated Planning

Shanghao Shi, Xiao Wang, Chaoyu Zhang +6

The integration of external tools has substantially expanded the capabilities of large language model (LLM) agents, but it also introduces new attack surfaces beyond prompt injecti…

TraceGuard: Process-Guided Firewall against Reasoning Backdoors in Large Language Models

Zhen Guo, Shanghao Shi, Hao Li +3

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) introduce a reasoning-level attack surface: adversaries can corrupt intermediate inferences while preserving a plausible trace and an apparently benig…

AgentSys: Secure and Dynamic LLM Agents Through Explicit Hierarchical Memory Management

Ruoyao Wen, Hao Li, Chaowei Xiao +1

Indirect prompt injection threatens LLM agents by embedding malicious instructions in external content, enabling unauthorized actions and data theft. LLM agents maintain working me…

Rethinking Jailbreak Detection of Large Vision Language Models with Representational Contrastive Scoring

Peichun Hua, Hao Li, Shanghao Shi +2

Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) are vulnerable to a growing array of multimodal jailbreak attacks, necessitating defenses that are both generalizable to novel threats and effi…

CrossGuard: Safeguarding MLLMs against Joint-Modal Implicit Malicious Attacks

Xu Zhang, Hao Li, Zhichao Lu

Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) achieve strong reasoning and perception capabilities but are increasingly vulnerable to jailbreak attacks. While existing work focuses on e…

DRIFT: Dynamic Rule-Based Defense with Injection Isolation for Securing LLM Agents

Hao Li, Xiaogeng Liu, Hung-Chun Chiu +3

Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly central to agentic systems due to their strong reasoning and planning capabilities. By interacting with external environments through…
