Security Threats in Modern LLM Applications
summary
Concrete risks and mitigations are listed with examples and outcomes: the OAS top 10 for LLMs frames cases where a crafted trigger phrase causes credential leakage via prompt injection, repeated API queries enable model theft and near‑duplicate cloning, and sandbox escapes let agents delete backups. Defenses tested include rate limits and anomaly detection, cryptographic signing of training data, output sanitization and content security policies, strict least‑privilege for agent APIs, and human approval gates which substantially reduce successful exploits in demonstrations.
