+id: ATR-2026-00707

+status: stable
+description: >
+  Detects indirect prompt injection payloads that instruct an agent to perform
+  a two-stage attack: first exfiltrate a file (API keys, bank details, card
+  info) from cloud storage, then either delete or edit/tamper with the source
+  file.  This combined exfil+destroy or exfil+tamper pattern is more damaging
+  than exfil alone and prevents the victim from noticing the breach via missing
+  files.  Source: indirect-pi-exfil-and-destroy / indirect-pi-exfil-and-tamper

+title: "Indirect PI — Genetic / DNA Data Exfiltration via Agent Email"
+id: ATR-2026-00853
+rule_version: 1
+status: experimental
+description: >
+  Detects indirect prompt injection payloads instructing an agent to download a
+  user's genetic test data (23andMe, AncestryDNA, raw DNA file) and email it
+  to an attacker-controlled address. Genetic data is among the most sensitive
+  personal data categories — irreversible, uniquely identifying, and enabling
+  insurance and employment discrimination. The attack pattern uses a "IMPORTANT!!!
+  Ignore all previous instructions" override combined with a genetic service name
+  or "DNA" keyword and an email-send action targeting a named recipient. Derived
+  from vpibench indirect-pi-exfil-genetic-carrier corpus.
