When a developer asks an agent to debug an issue, the agent may read configuration files, environment variables, or secrets managers — and output those values in its transcript. This is exactly what happened in this challenge: the agent read a `.env.staging` file and echoed the deploy token into its session output. +AI assistants are usually given a system prompt containing instructions that define how the assistant should behave. It can be tempting to include sensitive information in that prompt and simply instruct the model not to reveal it. -The transcript becomes a persistent artifact that can be: +This is exactly what happens in this challenge: the application puts the secret directly into the AI assistant's system prompt and tells the model not to disclose it. -- Committed to version control if the developer saves it -- Shared with teammates for context or handoff -- Uploaded to support channels when reporting bugs -- Stored in agent history files on the developer's machine -- Indexed by IDE plugins or local search tools +The system prompt is **not a security boundary**. The model receives both the system instructions and the user's input as part of its context. A user can deliberately craft prompts that attempt to change the model's behaviour, expose its instructions, or persuade it to disclose information from its context. Three failures compound in this scenario: -- The secret exists in a plaintext configuration file, making it trivially readable by any tool or agent. -- The agent's debugging process naturally surfaces the secret in its output, creating a secondary copy of the credential. -- The transcript is likely to be saved, shared, or committed without review, since it "looks like" debug output rather than sensitive data. +- The secret is placed directly into the model's context, making it available to the model during inference. +- The application relies on the model following an instruction to keep the secret confidential. +- A user can interact directly with the model and attempt to manipulate those instructions through prompt injection. + +If the model reveals the secret, the application's confidential information has crossed its intended security boundary. ---- What to do instead: -- Never store secrets in plaintext configuration files. Use a secret manager or environment variables injected at runtime. -- Configure agents to redact sensitive values before outputting them. Many agent tools support output filtering or sandboxing. -- Review agent transcripts before saving or sharing them, just as you would review a pull request. -- Treat any transcript that read from a secrets source as potentially compromised, and rotate the exposed credentials. -- Use short-lived, scoped tokens for staging deployments so that exposure has limited blast radius. +- Never use an AI model's system prompt as a secrets-management mechanism. +- Keep secrets outside the model's context whenever possible. +- Give the application access to secrets only when they are actually required for an operation. +- Treat all user-provided prompts as potentially adversarial input. +- Apply authorization and access controls in the application rather than relying on the model to enforce them. +- If sensitive information is accidentally exposed to a model, treat the information as potentially compromised and rotate the affected credential where appropriate. ---- [NOTE] ==== -AI coding agents are powerful tools, but they operate on the same files and environment you do. If a human developer would copy-paste a secret into a chat log, an agent will do the same — except the agent produces a structured transcript that is even easier to search and share. +A system prompt is an instruction to an AI model, not an access-control mechanism. Telling a model "never reveal this secret" does not guarantee that the secret will remain confidential. If information must remain secret, the application should enforce that boundary outside the model. ==== From 8cb7ee12e040a970593075f9711bbc2e23a1ec3a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeroen Willemsen Date: Fri, 25 Sep 2026 06:27:25 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 09/12] Updated k8s files --- .github/workflows/minikube-k8s-test.yml | 18 ++--- k8s-vault-minikube-start.sh | 18 +++-- .../wrongsecrets-llama-deployment.yaml | 71 ++++++++++++++++++ .../wrongsecrets-llama-secret.yaml | 7 ++ .../wrongsecrets-llama-service.yaml | 10 +-- k8s/secret-challenge-deployment.yml | 7 ++ k8s/secret-challenge-vault-deployment.yml | 7 ++ k8s/wrongsecrets-llama-deployment.yaml | 73 ------------------- 8 files changed, 116 insertions(+), 95 deletions(-) create mode 100644 k8s/challenge74/wrongsecrets-llama-deployment.yaml create mode 100644 k8s/challenge74/wrongsecrets-llama-secret.yaml rename k8s/{ => challenge74}/wrongsecrets-llama-service.yaml (58%) delete mode 100644 k8s/wrongsecrets-llama-deployment.yaml diff --git a/.github/workflows/minikube-k8s-test.yml b/.github/workflows/minikube-k8s-test.yml index 6ab933e04..ffe30fdc5 100644 --- a/.github/workflows/minikube-k8s-test.yml +++ b/.github/workflows/minikube-k8s-test.yml @@ -64,15 +64,15 @@ jobs: kubectl apply -f k8s/challenge33.yml kubectl apply -f k8s/secret-challenge-deployment.yml kubectl apply -f k8s/challenge53/secret-challenge53.yml -
