abstract

Large language models (LLMs) extended as systems, such as ChatGPT, have begun supporting third-party applications. These LLM apps leverage the de facto natural language-based automated execution paradigm of LLMs: that is, apps and their interactions are defined in natural language, provided access to user data, and allowed to freely interact with each other and the system. These LLM app ecosystems resemble the settings of earlier computing platforms, where there was insufficient isolation between apps and the system. Because third-party apps may not be trustworthy, and exacerbated by the imprecision of natural language interfaces, the current designs pose security and privacy risks for users. In this paper, we evaluate whether these issues can be addressed through execution isolation and what that isolation might look like in the context of LLM-based systems, where there are arbitrary natural language-based interactions between system components, between LLM and apps, and between apps. To that end, we propose IsolateGPT, a design architecture that demonstrates the feasibility of execution isolation and provides a blueprint for implementing isolation, in LLM-based systems. We evaluate IsolateGPT against a number of attacks and demonstrate that it protects against many security, privacy, and safety issues that exist in non-isolated LLM-based systems, without any loss of functionality. The performance overhead incurred by IsolateGPT to improve security is under 30% for three-quarters of tested queries.

What You Approve Is What Executes: Consent Integrity for Black-Box LLM Agents

cs.CR · 2026-06-01 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

The paper introduces Consent Integrity as the property that actions shown for approval must be rendered by a trusted mediator from the real boundary action over an unspoofable path and bound to execution, with uninspectable actions surfaced rather than silently approved.

AgenTEE: Confidential LLM Agent Execution on Edge Devices

cs.CR · 2026-04-20 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

AgenTEE isolates LLM agent runtime, inference, and apps in independently attested cVMs on Arm-based edge devices, achieving under 5.15% overhead versus commodity OS deployments.

Parallax: Why AI Agents That Think Must Never Act

cs.CR · 2026-04-14 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Parallax enforces structural separation between AI thinking and acting via independent multi-tier validation, information flow control, and state rollback, blocking 98.9% of 280 adversarial attacks with zero false positives even when the reasoning system is fully compromised.

Whispers in the Machine: Confidentiality in Agentic Systems

cs.CR · 2024-02-10 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Systematic testing of ten LLM agents across 20 tool scenarios and 14 attacks finds universal vulnerability to prompt injection enabling data exfiltration, with tooling amplifying leakage.

Options, Not Clicks: Lattice Refinement for Consent-Driven MCP Authorization

cs.CR · 2026-05-12 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

Conleash uses a risk lattice, policy engine, and refinement loop to deliver scoped, consent-driven authorization for MCP tool calls, reaching 98.2% accuracy and 99.4% escalation catch rate on 984 traces with 8.2 ms overhead and higher user preference in a 16-person study.

ClawLess: A Security Model of AI Agents

cs.CR · 2026-04-07 · unverdicted · novelty 5.0

ClawLess introduces a formal fine-grained security model for AI agents with runtime-adaptive policies enforced via user-space kernel and BPF syscall interception.
