CrowdStrike's security research team unveiled 18 new prompt injection techniques, expanding its taxonomy to over 200 distinct methods.
The article highlights five novel attack vectors, including Trigger-Activated Rule Addition, which plants dormant instructions that activate on specific keywords, and Unwitting User Context-Data Injection, which exploits how trusted data is processed by AI systems.
The findings show adversaries can manipulate AI through hidden context, delayed triggers, and semantic constraints beyond traditional jailbreaks. CrowdStrike recommends comprehensive AI threat modeling, expanded red teaming, and runtime visibility via its Falcon AIDR platform.
