Security of Foundation-Model-Powered Embodied Agents: Attack Surfaces, Attacks, Defenses, and Evaluation

Foundation models are increasingly used for perception, reasoning, planning, and action generation in embodied agents, creating security risks that can propagate from digital inputs to physical behavior. Existing surveys often organize threats by mechanisms such as jailbreaks, prompt injection,...

MCP-DPT: A Defense-Placement Taxonomy and Coverage Analysis for Model Context Protocol Security

The Model Context Protocol MCP enables large language models LLMs to dynamically discover and invoke third-party tools, significantly expanding agent capabilities while introducing a distinct security landscape. Unlike prompt-only interactions, MCP exposes pre-execution artifacts, shared context,...
