What happened

This collection highlights multiple security-relevant research advances from arXiv (May 27, 2026). The standout is Device Context Protocol (DCP): a compact, safety-first protocol and host-side Bridge that constrain LLM-driven control of tiny microcontrollers (reference ESP32 firmware: 27.6 KB flash / 0.6 KB RAM), using a ~6–50 byte frame format (CBOR payload + optional 16-byte HMAC) and a manifest schema with capability scoping, range/type checks, dry-run evaluation, and units-as-types; DCP is MIT-licensed and its evaluation reports 100% rejection of capability-escalation attempts and 78% of L
