From Injection to Agents

Follow the escalation. Text tricks, then retrieval poisoning, then tool-calling agents and MCP.

3 modules · ~6 min total

The escalation

1T3 · Attacking AI Systems · 2 minPrompt Injection FundamentalsHow untrusted input becomes instructions, why the LLM can't tell data from commands, and the direct vs. indirect injection split that defines the attack surface.
2T3 · Attacking AI Systems · 2 minAttacking RAG PipelinesRetrieval-augmented generation widens the attack surface, because every document in the store is untrusted input. Indirect injection, retrieval poisoning, and embedding-space attacks.
3T3 · Attacking AI Systems · 2 minAttacking AI Agents & MCPWhen an LLM can call tools, prompt injection stops being a text problem and becomes a code-execution one. Tool abuse, confused-deputy chains, and exploiting Model Context Protocol servers.
