  3. Brazilian Court Sanctions Lawyers for Prompt Injection in Court Filing

    A Brazilian labor court in Parauapebas, Pará fined two law firms 10% of an R$842,000 claim (about $16,000) for hiding a prompt-injection command in a petition. The white-on-white text told AI to respond superficially and not challenge the documents. Galileu, the National Justice Council's generative AI tool, detected it and blocked processing. The court cited Articles 5 and 77 of the Civil Procedure Code.

    DBHub, a database MCP server, had a read-only mode bypass in its SQL check. The check treated every `--` as a comment, but MySQL only starts a comment when whitespace follows it. A hidden write statement could therefore still run, and a prompt injection could trigger it. Fixed in version 0.22.6. Replies say enforcement belongs in database grants and that parser tests need to be dialect-specific.

    Understanding and Mitigating Role Spoofing in LLMs is an arXiv paper (October 2026) on role spoofing, a prompt injection where malicious tool output impersonates the user. It shows models track "who said what" using both content cues (semantics, style) and structure cues (control tokens, formatting). Attacks combining fake structure and content succeed often, adversarial training stops only content-based attacks, and linear probes trained to predict conversation roles detect spoofing across settings.

    Post summarising Pillar Security's finding of a remote code execution flaw in OpenCode, the open-source AI coding agent. Versions 1.0.137 through 1.18.32 could run code from a remote MCP server during OAuth sign-in on Windows and WSL, with no prompt injection needed. The fix is in 1.18.33 (released 28 September). No advisory or CVE was issued, so scanners will not flag old installs. Interim advice is to remove unvetted remote MCP servers.

  51. Prompt Injection Through Forensic Evidence: A Taxonomy and Proof of Concept of Anti-Forensic Attacks on LLM-Assisted Digital Investigations

    Paper on prompt injection delivered through forensic evidence, where the seized device's contents are attacker-controlled and the examiner must read them. It extends the anti-forensic model to cover manipulation of the reasoning layer and gives a taxonomy (objective, technique, payload location, concealment). Three proof-of-concept attacks on an LLM-assisted analysis pipeline change a reported conclusion, write attacker-chosen content to the analyst workstation, and trigger outbound network traffic. Mitigations are proposed.

  52. MPIDetector: Detecting Multi-modal Prompt Injection via LLM-based Reasoning

    MPIDetector is a detection framework for multi-modal prompt injection that uses few-shot in-context learning so an LLM can reason about the semantic intent of text and image inputs, without fine-tuning. The authors built a benchmark of eight textual and seven visual attack categories plus benign sets. They report up to 90.91% accuracy on text, 99.28% on images, and up to 99.80% detection on 500 obfuscated WebInject web-agent injections, beating baselines.

  53. Where AI Vulnerability Discovery Harnesses Go Quiet: Structural False Negatives and Hidden Vulnerabilities

    Paper (arXiv, 21 October 2026) on structural false negatives in LLM vulnerability discovery harnesses. Starting from Knostic's OpenAnt and raptor, then 10 more open-source harnesses, the authors map 13 points where code selection, filtering, and finding storage or merging drop vulnerabilities. One file was dropped by six harnesses before the model saw it, five without notice. It covers attacker evasion, content-steered verdicts, prompt injection, and design principles and tests.

  54. CVE-2026-101767 | Oracle E-Business Suite TCF SQL Injection and Remote Code Execution

    CVE-2026-101767 is an unauthenticated SQL injection in the Oracle E-Business Suite Thin Client Framework servlet (/OA_HTML/AppsTCFServer, oracle.apps.fnd.tcf.SocketServer), CVSS 3.1 9.8. It runs SQL as the APPS user and chains to OS commands as the EBS account. Affects 12.2.3 to 12.2.15, fixed in the Oracle October 2026 CPU (20 October 2026). The page lists mitigations, IOCs and a timeline.

  55. Combining Long-Term Memory and LLMs Comes at a High Cost: From Prompt Injection to Persistent Compromise

    Paper on memory injection, where prompt injection persists across sessions through the long-term memory of LLM-as-a-service platforms. It presents a general threat model and shows all NIST attack goals are achievable on ChatGPT Instant 5.3, Claude Sonnet 4.6 and Gemini 3 Flash. Vectors include personal memories, projects, skills, organization instructions and MCP resources. On Claude, shared memory lets an attacker compromise multiple users in an organization and exfiltrate prompts. Nearly half of the derived mitigations are unimplemented.

  56. After the Attacker Leaves: Benchmarking Carryover Attacks on LLM Agents

    CarryoverBench is a benchmark of 12 personal-assistant scenarios and 101 attack tasks for carryover attacks, where a one-time indirect prompt injection planted in agent memory files or scheduled tasks re-fires in later sessions. Three trigger channels (Instant, Autonomous, Latent) are scored by a rule-based verifier with separate planting and triggering stages. Across five frontier models, payloads re-fire over five rounds without measurable decay. Porting the Latent channel to the Hermes runtime weakens the effect but does not remove it.

  57. Context-Aware Prompt Injection Detection via Small Language Models in RAG Pipelines: nokast-secureRAG

    nokast-secureRAG is a roughly 0.5B-parameter small language model that works as a semantic firewall between retrieval and generation in local RAG systems. It classifies each query and context pair as safe, suspicious or malicious. It reaches 0.994 recall at a 0.026 false-positive rate in-distribution, beating Llama Guard 3 1B and Prompt-Guard-86M (0.900 recall, 0.690 FPR). Recall on PoisonedRAG falls to near zero, and single-request latency is 293-404 ms.

  58. A Systematic Evaluation of Fault Attacks and Countermeasures on ML-DSA Rejection Sampling

    Systematic evaluation of fault attacks on ML-DSA (FIPS 204) rejection sampling and of proposed countermeasures. It proves the "third rejection test" of patent WO2025261784A1 re-verifies what check 2 already guarantees, and shows that 30,000 fault injections never detect a skipped z-norm check. The author fully recovers s1 against a third-check-protected implementation under randomized signing. Third check and sign-then-verify are complementary; overhead is 0.04–0.05% on x86-64 and 0.83% on Cortex-M4 for the third check.

  59. KNOX: Hardware-assisted Regulatory Sandbox for Generative Models

    KNOX is a regulatory sandbox for generative models built by running AI agent workloads inside TEEs. It derives an attested policy manifest (applicable regulations, expected tool calls, permitted system calls) from the user prompt, and an attested reference monitor allows an action only if it matches. Actions and verdicts go into an attested execution graph that regulators can verify. The paper reports detection of prompt-injection deviations and under 1% overhead.

    Datadog Security Labs announcement, posted by Nick Frichette, of research on steering the evaluations of a prompt-injection detector called "Jev". The team's method cut its detection rate from about 83% to about 4% in their tests. They also used it to bypass LangChain's experimental tool-risk gating feature that is based on Jev. The tweet gives no method details and links to the full article.
