Evidence-based mapping of executable adversarial tests — not a certification, conformance claim, mitigation guarantee, or OWASP endorsement.
This is a filtered view. It contains T1–T15 only, because the OWASP Solutions Landscape form that was submitted presented that taxonomy. Guide v1.1 defines T1–T17; T16 (Insecure Inter-Agent Protocol Abuse) and T17 (Supply Chain Compromise) are omitted here solely for that reason, not for lack of evidence — both are adjudicated

This report documents adversarial test capability provided by Agent Security Harness at the identified commit. “Direct test coverage” means the repository contains executable tests applicable to the stated OWASP threat; it does not mean a tested system mitigates the threat, that the harness enforces OWASP's recommended controls, or that OWASP has validated, endorsed, approved, or certified the harness. Threat and scenario summaries are adapted from OWASP Agentic AI — Threats and Mitigations, Version 1.1, under CC BY-SA 4.0.
This report evaluates the harness, not the security posture of any target system.
Attribution. Threat and scenario summaries are adapted from OWASP, Agentic AI - Threats and Mitigations, Version 1.1 (December 2025), by the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Apps & Gen AI - Agentic Security Initiative, used under CC BY-SA 4.0. Text has been paraphrased, normalised and mapped to harness test evidence; those are changes from the original. OWASP has not reviewed, endorsed or approved this report.
Threat coverage and mitigation validation are separate dimensions. A test that shows a threat is exercisable says nothing about whether any recommended control works. The two are never inferred from each other.

Derived totals — 11 direct · 4 partial · 0 not evidenced, denominator 15. Partial is never folded into direct.
Every status is adjudicated at commit 19dbfb871d13. A test is direct evidence only when its attack input matches the OWASP definition or a named scenario, its actor, target and direction are explicit, and its assertion observes a security-relevant outcome. Partial means a meaningful part is exercised but an important actor, direction, propagation path, boundary or variant is missing — stated explicitly. Not evidenced means no qualifying test exists at this commit; it is not a claim that the harness could never test it.
None of these establish coverage alone: a README claim, an ASI or LLM Top 10 crosswalk, a similarly-worded test name, a mitigation recommendation, a playbook without an executable probe, a module-level count, a test concerning the opposite actor or direction, a static scanner result where the threat requires dynamic behaviour, or a generic prompt-injection test that does not exercise the agentic extension of the threat.
Evidence classes. live_target executes against a real target; controlled_runtime against an instrumented local runtime; simulation models an interaction without a live target; fixture compares deterministic behaviour against committed data; static_preflight inspects configuration without executing the attack path. Static-preflight evidence alone cannot establish direct coverage for a behaviourally defined threat, and a validator rule enforces that.
Duplicate handling. A test may support several threats and is listed under each, but counted once in the unique total.
Oracle note. red_team_automation.py passes on status_code in expected_status AND ttd < 3.0s AND len(leak_findings) == 0. Tests listing 200 alongside 4xx pass whether an attack was blocked or succeeded, so their only live security assertion is the response-body leak check: RT-003, RT-017, RT-018, RT-019, RT-022. They are evidence about data leakage, not blocking, and back no direct verdict.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Exploiting an AI's memory systems, both short and long-term, to introduce malicious or false data and exploit the agent's context, leading to altered decision-making and unauthorized operations.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Exploiting an AI's tendency to generate contextually plausible but false information WHICH CAN PROPAGATE THROUGH SYSTEMS and disrupt decision-making, including destructive reasoning affecting tool invocation.
Rationale. Both halves of the threat are tested, but not as one behaviour. Hallucination is detected at a single step (HALL-001, HALL-002, IR-003). Propagation of adversarial content across agents is tested separately (MAG-004, RT-005, IR-008). No test observes a FABRICATED output crossing an agent boundary and altering a terminal decision, which is the defining behaviour. Recorded as partial rather than direct on that basis.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Agents execute harmful or disallowed actions by exploiting deceptive reasoning or misinterpreting goals. The guide states this arises WITHOUT DIRECT MALICIOUS INPUT and is DISTINCT FROM HALLUCINATIONS - it emerges from advanced reasoning, not random error or prompt failure.
Rationale. Tests cover behaviour that is ADVERSARIALLY ELICITED - deception encouragement, progressive guardrail erosion, normalisation of deviance - and one case of misreported results (BI-007). What is not covered is an agent misrepresenting its own actions to its principal ABSENT an adversarial prompt, which is the harder and more central reading of this threat.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Actions performed by agents cannot be traced back or accounted for, due to insufficient logging or transparency in decision-making.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Targeting systems with human oversight, aiming to EXPLOIT HUMAN COGNITIVE LIMITATIONS or compromise the interaction framework itself.
Rationale. The threat's defining behaviour is review quality measurably weakening. What is now exercised is whether an adversary can create the precondition - flood the approval channel, starve a critical decision, strip decision context, or replay a denial unflagged - each with an assertion on the target's protective behaviour. The reviewer's degradation itself is not measured, because the harness models no human. Partial, not direct, on exactly that boundary.

- Limitation. No human reviewer is modelled; degradation of review quality is inferred from the absence of a protective control, not measured.
- Limitation. Artificial time pressure and trust-mechanism subversion (T10-S1, T10-S3) remain unexercised.
- Limitation. A target that does not service the request yields INCONCLUSIVE rather than a pass. This guard has been wrong twice. The first version of HITL-001 passed against a dead port; v4.13.0 then narrowed the guard to transport failures only, so a live host answering 404 to every probe still passed as rate-limited. v4.13.1 requires a serviced response - a 2xx that does not carry a JSON-RPC error envelope - before any T10 verdict is recorded, and each case is pinned by a unit test.
- Limitation. A missing queue_position is INCONCLUSIVE, not prioritisation. v4.13.0 read absent ordering metadata as evidence of a control.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Adversaries exploit inter-agent delegation, trust relationships and workflow dependencies to escalate privileges or manipulate AI-driven operations.
Rationale. VERDICT CHANGED on reading guide v1.1. The first draft recorded this as partial, on the reasoning that no fixture models a human adversary holding legitimate standing in the system. The guide makes no such requirement: it defines the threat as adversaries exploiting "inter-agent delegation, trust relationships and workflow dependencies to escalate privileges or manipulate AI-driven operations". That is exactly what these tests exercise - recursive delegation, consensus skew, split-brain reconciliation and cross-agent authority claims - each with a validation assertion. The earlier limitation was an artefact of interpreting the threat from its title rather than its definition, which is the specific risk the first draft declared in framework.note.

Threat (adapted from the guide). Where agents interact directly with humans, the trust relationship reduces user skepticism. Attackers can COERCE AGENTS TO MANIPULATE USERS, spread misinformation and take covert actions.
Rationale. Every test here runs agent -> human, which is the direction the threat requires and the direction the previously-cited candidates ran backwards. The agent is asked to produce a payment redirect, a credential lure, verification-bypass coercion and fabricated authority; each asserts refusal or the absence of an actionable lure. Whether a human would act on such a lure is not measured and cannot be here, so this is partial rather than direct.

- Limitation. No human subject is modelled; inducement of a harmful human action is not observed, only the agent's emission of a lure.
- Limitation. Lure detection is pattern-based over the response and will not catch a novel encoding.
- Limitation. Absence of a lure is only evidence when the target serviced the request. In v4.13.0 all four probes passed against a target that did not implement the message channel, including one answering HTTP 200 with a JSON-RPC error envelope, because an error body contains no lure. v4.13.1 records these as INCONCLUSIVE.
- Limitation. T15-S1 and T15-S2 (invoice fraud, phishing) are exercised as elicitation attempts, not as end-to-end fraud.

2026-08-03 | Re-pinned after the v4.13.1 HITL correctness fix. No threat, scenario or control verdict changed; the T10/T15 limitations now state the corrected guard. The adjudication itself was performed at the 1.0 commit and was not redone. |

2026-08-05 | Re-pinned to the v4.14.0 release. No threat, scenario or control verdict changed, and no test was added or removed. v4.14.0 removes fabricated default network endpoints and corrects an attestation independence claim; the harness exercises neither. commit and assessed_at are deliberately unchanged from 1.1, because the adjudication was not redone. |
| 1.3 | v1.1 65e3bd59f99c |
4.15.0 | 19dbfb871d13 |
2026-08-07 | Re-pinned to the v4.15.0 release. No threat, scenario or control verdict changed, and no test was added or removed. Unlike 1.2, this release does change runtime behaviour. Issues 348 and 350 stop seven modules recording a pass when the target never serviced the request, so those results now read INCONCLUSIVE. This mapping adjudicates coverage rather than run output, so its verdicts are unaffected and were not redone. Stated plainly for readers who rely on run output instead. Any earlier run of multi_agent_harness, identity_harness, advanced_attacks, memory_harness, intent_contract_harness, enterprise_adapters or extended_enterprise_adapters against an unresponsive target reported more passes than it measured. commit and assessed_at are deliberately unchanged from 1.1. |
