MITRE ATLAS Thread (AML.T0080.001) - Adversarial Thread threat to AI systems

What MITRE ATLAS Thread (AML.T0080.001) - Adversarial Thread threat to AI systems requires

This node addresses MITRE ATLAS technique AML.T0080.001 (Thread). Adversaries may introduce malicious instructions into a chat thread of a large language model (LLM) to cause behavior changes which persist for the remainder of the thread. A chat thread may continue for an extended period over multiple sessions. The malicious instructions may be introduced via Direct or Indirect Prompt Injection. Direct Injection may occur in cases where the adversary has acquired a user's LLM API keys and can inject queries directly into any thread. As the token limits for LLMs rise, AI systems can make use of larger context windows which allow malicious instructions to persist longer in a thread. Thread Poisoning may affect multiple users if the LLM is being used in a service with shared threads. For example, if an agent is active in a Slack channel with multiple partic... Defending against this technique is required under EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and ISO/IEC 42001 obligations; this node operationalises the documented ATLAS mitigations and cross-instrument controls into a deterministic verification workflow. Sub-technique of ATLAS AML.T0080.
