RT-DocLayout: Real-Time End-to-End Document Layout Analysis with Reading Order in the WildCheng Cui, Tingquan Gao, Xueqing Wang et al.
Accurate document layout analysis remains a critical bottleneck for document parsing systems, due to the intricate coupling among heterogeneous document layout elements, geometric distortions (\eg, paper warping and bending, perspective variations), and reading order within diverse layout structures. Existing approaches typically rely on fragmented multi-stage pipelines or computationally heavy generative Transformer architectures, leading to error propagation and limited efficiency. In this paper, we present RT-DocLayout, a highly efficient end-to-end framework for document layout analysis, designed as a front-end for document parsing tasks. The proposed model unifies classification, detection, pixel-level segmentation, and reading order prediction for layout elements within a single 33M-parameter architecture. Built upon the RT-DETR, our key contribution is a unified multi-task formulation within a single query-based decoder that simultaneously classifies, regresses bounding box, generates masks, and constructs relationship to reason reading order. By jointly learning geometric and structural representations, RT-DocLayout introduces multi-task optimization that substantially improves robustness under real-world document distortions. Extensive experiments on public benchmarks demonstrate state-of-the-art performance in document layout analysis while maintaining real-time inference speed(132.1 FPS). When coupled with downstream OCR engines, RT-DocLayout significantly improves full-document reconstruction quality, providing a scalable and practical foundation for real-world document intelligence systems.

"What Happens Locally, Leaks Globally": Detecting Privacy Leakage Risks in MCP ServersBiwei Yan, Minghui Xu, Yijun Yang et al.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) has rapidly become the de facto standard for connecting large language models (LLMs) to external resources, but it also introduces a class of privacy risks that existing tools are ill-equipped to detect. Unlike conventional exfiltration bugs, leakage in MCP servers is largely protocol-induced: credentials, API keys, and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) cross the local/LLM boundary simply by being returned, logged, or raised inside a tool handler, with no explicit outbound request in the source code. We present MCPPrivacyDetector, a context-aware cross-language static analysis framework that detects such leakage in multilingual MCP servers. MCPPrivacyDetector lifts heterogeneous code implemented across different programming language (e.g., Python) into a unified program representation, applies context-aware semantic filtering to isolate genuinely sensitive values and protocol-specific implicit sinks (e.g., @mcp.tool handlers), and performs taint analysis to enumerate feasible flows. Applied to 10,655 real-world MCP servers, MCPPrivacyDetector finds leakage rates above 10%. Case studies confirm concrete exposures including leaked Bearer tokens, propagated API keys, and plaintext authentication credentials, arguing for systematic, protocol-aware safeguards in the emerging LLM agent toolchain.

MIRAGE: Stealthy Visual Prompt Injection for Vulnerability Detection in Web AgentsXuelong Dai, Jianyu Ma, Boyang Ma et al.
Multimodal Large Language Model (MLLM)-based web agents provide practical, high-precision solutions for visual browser automation; however, they inherently expand the attack surface, introducing novel vision-based vulnerabilities. Existing adversarial evaluations targeting these agents frequently rely on permissive threat models and visually conspicuous artifacts. In this paper, we investigate a constrained vulnerability detection setting: a trusted web platform where the evaluator acts solely as an unprivileged third party, such as a merchant or advertiser, controlling only a semantically legitimate, spatially constrained region, such as an ad slot, a sponsored card, or a localized widget. Operating under these realistic constraints, we propose MIRAGE, a novel visual indirect prompt injection framework for targeted next-action hijacking. Our approach leverages diffusion models to generate perceptually benign adversarial images strictly confined to the attacker-controlled boundaries permitted by the trusted service provider. To maximize attack efficacy within such a restrictive setting, we introduce a robust optimization technique combining curvature-aware adversarial diffusion guidance with sparse, dark-pixel residual perturbations. Comprehensive evaluations against prominent MLLM web agent frameworks, specifically SeeAct and OpenClaw, empirically demonstrate the potency, realism, and stealth of our proposed MIRAGE.
