Risk Level: SAFEINDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION
Full Analysis
- [INDIRECT_PROMPT_INJECTION]: The protocol defines a systematic process for ingesting external data (logs, metrics, reproduction results) into the agent's cognitive workspace through the evidence repository and session manifest.
- Ingestion points: The
evidence/gathered/directory and fields such asfinding,summary, androot_causeinmanifest.jsonand handover files receive data from external sources. - Boundary markers: While the protocol uses structured JSON schemas (e.g., universal handover format), it does not specify clear delimiters or instructions for the agent to treat ingested natural language content as untrusted.
- Capability inventory: The orchestrator and reasoning patterns (HE, SRC, AR) described in the protocol suggest the agent has capabilities for file system access, code analysis, and system diagnostics.
- Sanitization: The protocol lacks requirements for escaping, filtering, or sanitizing external content before it is interpolated into reasoning prompts for subsequent patterns.
