  • Communication topology is a critical factor in the utility and safety of LLM-based multi-agent systems (LLM-MAS), making it a high-value intellectual property (IP) whose confidentiality remains insufficiently studied.
  • To bridge this realism gap, we propose WebWeaver, an attack framework that infers the complete LLM-MAS topology by compromising only a single arbitrary agent instead of the administrative agent.
