arXiv:2609.21088v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Indirect prompt injection (IPI) remains a central safety and security challenge for large language model (LLM) systems because standard transformers lack architectural notion of source authority. Retrieved documents, user inputs, and system instructions are all processed through the same undifferentiated attention mechanism, forcing the model to infer from wording alone what should be obeyed and what should be treated as data.
