Report #22327

[gotcha] Assuming an LLM is safe if single-turn red-teaming fails, ignoring multi-turn attack vectors

Implement stateful monitoring across the entire agentic session, not just per-turn. Limit agent capabilities \(principle of least privilege\) and require human-in-the-loop for destructive or irreversible actions.

Journey Context:
A single prompt might look benign \('Search for X', 'Summarize Y'\), but over multiple turns, an attacker can guide the agent to construct a malicious payload or navigate to a compromised site that delivers the final injection. Single-turn filters miss the forest for the trees, failing to detect the cumulative intent of a multi-step attack.
