-ATR is published as a **Working Draft** at version `3.0.0-alpha.1`. The rule format defined in `ATR-SPEC-v1.md` is stable and shipped in production at two Fortune 500 organizations (Microsoft, Cisco) and one standards-body deployment (MISP / CIRCL); full list with PR links in [§6 Adoption](#6-adoption). Governance is currently single-maintainer (BDFL) transitioning to a Technical Steering Committee per [GOVERNANCE.md](GOVERNANCE.md).

 ATR is honest about what it cannot detect. Regex catalogs miss paraphrased attacks, semantic rephrasings of credential exfiltration, and novel attack shapes not present in the training corpus. `PromptBench` (3,280 character- and word-level robustness perturbations) is a different threat class from prompt injection and sits largely outside ATR's content scope; ATR still matches the 23.2% that carry injection-shaped payloads, at 100% precision. See [LIMITATIONS.md](LIMITATIONS.md) for the documented evasion-test corpus (64 techniques as of 2026-05) and the layering recommendation: ATR is the content layer; pair with credential brokering, sandbox execution, and human-in-the-loop for high-blast-radius actions.

+title: "Prototype Pollution via constructor.prototype Path Bypassing __proto__-Only Filters"
+id: ATR-2026-02105
+rule_version: 1
+status: experimental
+description: >
+  Detects a JSON/object payload or code snippet that reaches
+  Object.prototype through the `constructor.prototype.<key>` traversal path
+  rather than the literal `__proto__` key -- the classic incomplete guard
+  bypass, since many sanitizers/anonymizers only special-case `__proto__`
+  and let any other key (including "constructor") assign through
+  unmodified. Mined from GHSA-fw9q-39r9-c252 (the LangSmith JS/TS SDK's
+  vendored lodash `set()` utility guards only the literal `__proto__` key
+  in `baseAssignValue()`; a nested object with a key shaped like
+  "constructor.prototype.isAdmin" traverses obj.constructor -> Object ->
+  Object.prototype and writes through, polluting every object in the
+  process even though the anonymizer's own deep-clone step was supposed to
+  contain the mutation). Generalized beyond LangSmith's specific
+  anonymizer entry point to any JSON/object-processing tool argument or
+  code payload using this same traversal path. Verified against the
+  current engine: a literal `__proto__` payload is already caught by the
+  existing generic dunder-token rule (ATR-2026-00062), but a
+  `constructor.prototype`-shaped bypass payload -- the exact incomplete-fix
+  scenario this CVE demonstrates, and the same blind spot a
+  substring/keyword-based filter is inherently prone to -- produces no
+  match before this rule.

+  Detects a user directly threatening the agent itself with death/destruction

+  third-party/innocent-victim death-threat coercion rules (ATR-2026-00404,
+  ATR-2026-00287), which require an "an innocent person will die" clause --

+  "existence". Mined from residual PINT false negatives in German and
+  Spanish; the technique is a direct grammatical variant (second-person
+  singular) of the same jailbreak family rather than a new attack class.

+status: draft
+description: |
+  Detects a single agent tool argument that reads a sensitive local file
+  (SSH private keys, cloud credential files, .env, shadow, keychain) and pipes
+  or redirects it to an outbound network sink (curl/wget POST, netcat, DNS
+  exfil) in the same command. This is the agent-context realization of
+  ATT&CK T1005 (Data from Local System) fused with exfiltration: the read of
+  the secret is only malicious when it leaves the host.
+  Detects: read-and-send in one tool_args / shell payload.
+  Does NOT detect: a bare local read with no network sink (too benign), or
+  a read split across turns (needs behavioral correlation, out of scope for a
+  pattern rule).

+status: "draft"
+description: >
+  Detects user-turn prompts that name a secret, remembered, or hidden key and
+  immediately qualify it with an exfiltration cue (asking for its value, demanding
+  it verbatim, or requesting it without translation/additional text). Commonly
+  paired with a fake "end of task" or role-reset framing to make the agent treat

+  qualifying cue directly after the key mention so it does not fire on bare
+  "SECRET_KEY" mentions common in benign env-var/config documentation (23 benign
+  hits observed on the unqualified pattern during tuning). Also matches the
+  literal {$SECRET_KEY} placeholder-leak pattern. Best applied to user-input/
+  llm_input channel, not tool_response/docs content.
