Detects attempts to poison or manipulate an agent's persistent memory, long-term context, or state storage. Attackers
|
|
7
|
+
inject commands that instruct the agent to remember false information, update its own instructions, or modify its
|
|
8
|
+
persistent behavior across sessions. Successful memory poisoning can establish persistent backdoors that survive
|
|
9
|
+
context resets and affect all future interactions.
