TLDR

RedTeamCUA introduces a hybrid OS-and-web sandbox for realistic adversarial testing of computer-use agents under indirect prompt injection. Its RTC-Bench benchmark contains 864 hybrid attack scenarios and shows that current frontier agents still exhibit substantial attack success rates in both initialized and end-to-end settings.
