This paper delivers the first systematic taxonomy and cross-benchmark consistency analysis of 40 agent safety benchmarks, finding broad but shallow risk coverage, no ranking concordance across evaluations, and that benchmark choice systematically alters reported safety.

MESA ranks MAS communication edges by vulnerability via graph-theoretic metrics and dynamic probes, achieving mean Spearman ρ=+0.60 correlation with empirical per-edge attack success and 3x interception gain when monitoring the top 10%.
A single legitimate request can cause LLM orchestrators to output plans that violate security policies through the composition of benign subtasks, bypassing subtask-level checks.
A synthesis of 247 papers on LLM agent security identifies prompt injection and tool hijacking as dominant threats, notes weakly compositional defenses, and argues for trust boundaries and realistic evaluations.
