Large language models (LLMs) are becoming integral to web applications and browser agents, transforming online interactions while introducing new attack vectors and reshaping longstanding web vulnerabilities. Classical threats such as cross-site scripting (XSS) can be amplified through LLM-mediated interactions, while LLM-specific vulnerabilities can propagate across web applications, introducing attacks such as prompt injection. Securing modern web systems therefore requires understanding interactions between traditional and LLM-specific threats across the system lifecycle. Unlike prior surveys treating web and LLM security separately, this survey provides a unified analysis of how LLMs amplify web vulnerabilities across client-side, server-side, and pipeline layers while evaluating defenses and their limitations. The analysis examines extending NIST and ISO/IEC AI security frameworks to the security needs of LLM-enabled web environments. Three unresolved challenges are identified: adversarial natural-language instructions, autonomous agent security, and post-deployment security through continuous monitoring and adaptation. An LLM-aware monitoring and control framework is proposed, integrating semantic input validation, prompt integrity protection, output isolation, agent governance, and runtime monitoring. This unified perspective characterizes the evolving threat landscape and outlines future directions for secure AI-enabled web systems.
