Adversarial Images Hijack Web Agents from Visual Grounding to Browser Execution

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2610.09240v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern web agents built on large vision-language models process webpages, select relevant UI elements, and translate model outputs into browser actions. Existing visual red-teaming approaches use adversarial visual content to manipulate this process. However, they primarily target model inference and do not explicitly account for structured input processing or action post-processing. Consequently, model-level success does not establish control over browser execution and cannot reliably characterize end-to-end agent robustness. To address this gap, we formulate red teaming for vision-grounded web agents as an end-to-end grounding-to-execution problem, and introduce WebMirage, a framework that crafts localized visual perturbations that cause
