Uncommanded engine shutdowns

Can anyone enlighten me on which jet engines (if any) are automatically shutdown in flight should their fuel computers or other controlling devices detect a major problem?

For example, any jet engines shutdown and self protect in flight for over temperature, overspeed, vibrations, or other issues?

If so is there a lot of controversy over the phase of flight this may apply to (eg initial takeoff), and the pilot not making the final decision?
