Kelvra framework tackles LLM prompt injection with 50-year-old security model

A developer has created Kelvra, a new security framework for LLM agents designed to prevent prompt injection attacks by implementing a 50-year-old information flow control model. Kelvra uses labeled data and policy files to track and control data movement, flagging potential injection vulnerabilities during the authoring phase. While it cannot inspect model outputs directly and relies on cooperative runtime, Kelvra aims to provide a portable labeling system and auditable records for regulators. AI

IMPACT Provides a novel approach to LLM security by adapting established information flow control principles to mitigate prompt injection risks.
