The integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) with external sources is becoming increasingly common, with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) being a prominent example. However, this integration introduces vulnerabilities of Indirect…
A large language model (LLM) agent that sends messages can leak data inside them. Destination allowlists and content scanners do not police whether an otherwise-benign payload is itself a covert channel: a compromised agent encodes bits in…
Defenses against indirect prompt injection (IPI) in tool-using LLM agents share two structural weaknesses. First, they all attempt to prevent attacks rather than detect the compromises that slip through. Second, they have only been…
