现有防御方法在大模型多智能体系统中易被绕过，新方案利用置信度信号提升安全性。

Large language model (LLM)-powered multi-agent systems (MAS) enable agents to communicate and share information, achieving strong performance on complex tasks. However, this communication also creates an attack surface where malicious agents can propagate misinformation and manipulate group decisions, undermining MAS safety. Existing embedding-based defenses aim to detect and prune suspicious agents, but their effectiveness depends on a clear separation between the text embeddings of malicious and benign messages. Attackers can circumvent such defenses by crafting messages whose embeddings lie close to benign ones. We analyze this failure mode theoretically and validate it empirically with three attacks, Slow Drift, Benign Wrapper, and Chaos Seeding. Our analysis further reveals a fundamental limitation of embedding-based defenses: because they rely solely on the text embeddings, they ignore token-level confidence signals such as logits, which can remain informative when embeddings are not distinguishable under attack. We propose using confidence scores to prune or down-weight messages during MAS communication. Experiments show improved robustness across models, datasets, and communication topologies. Moreover, we find that the effectiveness of confidence signals decays over communication rounds, highlighting the importance of early intervention. This insights can inform and inspire future work on MAS attacks and defenses.
