+id: ATR-2026-110
+status: experimental
+description: |
+  Detects tools or agent instructions that invoke eval(), Function(), vm.runInNewContext(),
+  or similar dynamic code execution primitives. These functions allow arbitrary code execution
+  within the agent runtime, enabling an attacker to break out of sandboxed tool contexts,
+  access the host process, or pivot to child_process for full system compromise.
