Severity: MediumResearchData exfiltration
Benign tools chained into a data-exfiltration path
Global
Sample data. Showing illustrative sample items as a fallback — the live feed is not available right now.
Research demonstrates that individually harmless tools — a file reader, a templating helper, and an outbound HTTP fetch — can be chained by a manipulated agent to stage and exfiltrate sensitive data. No single tool was vulnerable in isolation.
What to do
Monitor sequences of tool calls, not just individual calls, and apply egress controls so an agent cannot freely combine read access with outbound network reach.
