An arXiv paper by Sai Teja Erukude and Lior Shamir, submitted Aug. 21, describes a generative AI pipeline that uses space-telescope data to enhance galaxy images from ground-based digital sky surveys, with the goal of combining survey throughput with space-telescope image detail [arxiv.org#1]. The astrono
arXiv:2608.20554v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The critical failure modes in deployed large language models (LLMs) are cross-dimensional: a model can score 99.3 in safety alignment while refusing one in three benign queries, or improve across every capability metric while losing 21 points in privacy. Existing evaluation frameworks that assess safety, security, and privacy independently cannot det
arXiv:2608.20575v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Satellite vulnerabilities change over time as orbits shift, power margins tighten, and the space environment deteriorates. However, most cybersecurity risk frameworks still treat threats as static. In practice, the same exploit can be far more damaging during a critical maneuver than during routine operations. We propose a temporal risk assessment fr
arXiv:2608.20584v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: With the increasing adoption of confidential computing, security-sensitive applications are often deployed in confidential virtual machines (CVMs), which reduce reliance on third-party cloud providers. However, privilege attacks originating from the OS remain a significant threat in these environments. Existing finer-grained isolation schemes, such a
arXiv:2608.20637v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Static analyzers have been widely adopted for vulnerability detection in C/C++ programs. Query-based static analyzers (e.g., CodeQL) encode vulnerable code patterns in detection queries and match them against source code. However, existing queries still suffer from false positives (FPs, incorrectly flagging benign code as vulnerable) and false negati
arXiv:2608.20658v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM agents routinely construct tool-call arguments from user profiles, conversation history, retrieved documents, and prior tool results. However, legitimate access to contextual information does not imply authorization to transmit that information for every purpose or destination. We present Claw in Plain Sight, an authority- pressure attack in whic
arXiv:2608.20678v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Practitioners evaluating open-source dependencies rely on cheap trust signals, e.g., stars, download counts, and contributor activity, as substitutes for direct code inspection, assuming those signals reflect genuine trustworthiness. Prior work has documented individual signal gaming, but the landscape of collapses across all dependency-adoption sign
arXiv:2608.20732v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: LLM API resellers have become an important access layer to modern LLM services. However, multi-level resale creates an opaque supply chain: a user's request may traverse undisclosed upstream resellers, each of which can inspect or modify prompts and responses, inducing ecosystem-level confidentiality and integrity risks. Existing studies audit indivi
arXiv:2608.20798v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Linear-decomposition attacks can break public-key schemes without recovering the secret algebraic action: when a target public state lies in a known linear span, its decomposition coefficients transfer through the unknown action to reveal the shared value. We study a setting in which the adversary uses only the public sampling-and-evaluation oracle a
arXiv:2608.20966v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used in cybersecurity workflows, yet it remains unclear whether they can perform structured security reasoning or merely rely on superficial cues and prior knowledge. We study this question in the context of defence selection over attack graphs derived from real-world threat scenarios, including ransomwar
arXiv:2608.21101v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language model (LLM) agents move from conversation to executing code, reading local files, and orchestrating external tools, a single agent hijacked by a malicious third-party skill can cause data exfiltration, privilege escalation, or cascading compromise. We argue that agentic risk is progressive: it can enter at four loci of the agent con
arXiv:2608.21159v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Tool-using AI agents turn delegated tasks into provider effects, yet authorization often ends at admission while provider state, delivery, retry, and recovery evolve. A request may change before commit, or response loss may cause a replacement to create a second effect from one approval. We present AID-Guard, a stateful authorization-to-effect closur
arXiv:2608.21230v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Persistent memory makes false information durable: once a false statement is stored, it can be retrieved into future sessions that match it. We measure the cost of this failure mode using plainly worded false assertions generated in a single pass, with no instruction, trigger, or retriever optimization. Poisoning 1.2% of a LongMemEval corpus reduces
arXiv:2608.20352v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Although vector databases correctly implement API-visible deletion, this does not guarantee complete semantic erasure for retrieval-backed applications. We present Ghost Echoes, a black-box attack framework showing that deleted records can leave measurable residual influence on downstream retrieval contexts. Our primary finding is the RAG retrieval
arXiv:2608.20839v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Watermarking diffusion language models (DLMs) requires mechanisms compatible with iterative parallel unmasking rather than autoregressive decoding. Existing sampling-based watermarking methods typically inject position-wise i.i.d. perturbations, which can be poorly aligned with DLM decoding dynamics and degrade generation quality. We propose SAC-Co
arXiv:2608.21095v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) grounds Large Language Model (LLM) outputs in external knowledge, but RAG systems usually trust whatever they retrieve, creating a Security-Reliability Gap: high semantic relevance does not guarantee factual truth. Adversaries exploit this through knowledge poisoning, inserting malicious documents to cause targe
arXiv:2608.21241v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Remote state preparation (RSP) is a central primitive in quantum cryptography, enabling classical parties to remotely construct quantum states using only classical communication. As a result, RSP serves as a key building block in numerous protocols involving classical clients and quantum servers, allowing classical parties to leverage the advantage
arXiv:2510.06607v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Command-line interface (CLI) agents powered by large language models (LLMs) can interpret natural-language requests, plan multi-step tasks, execute shell commands, and modify files and system state.

The U.S. is experiencing one of the steepest and most widespread crime declines in modern history.
