Indirect prompt injection means an attacker plants instructions in third-party content that an Agent will actively fetch; because LLMs struggle to reliably distinguish "data" from "instructions," there is currently no one-and-done general defense.

VerifiedSelf-generated prompt injection is a security risk in which the injected instruction originates from the model itself rather than an external attacker.76% similarUnverifiedPrompt injection refers to an attacker hiding malicious instructions in content that the agent will read, causing the agent to mistakenly execute them as legitimate tasks, thereby making the assumption that "the current model is benign" no longer reliable.75% similarUnverifiedThe focus of defending against indirect prompt injection cannot be on 'identifying malicious text' but must be on capability constraints—even if the agent is persuaded to call a tool, the system should have the authority to refuse that call.74% similarUnverifiedAgent Vault's approach to prompt injection is not to improve the model's recognition capability, but to ensure the agent's context contains only mock tokens, thereby downgrading prompt injection from a data breach incident to a failed form submission.72% similarUnverifiedDefending against indirect prompt injection cannot rely on prompt engineering alone (such as "please ignore conflicting instructions"), because the model treats all tokens as equally authoritative, and it must rely on architectural-level separation of commands and data.71% similar
