SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill identifies vulnerabilities where an AI agent might grant unauthorized access or perform actions beyond its intended permissions, safeguarding sensitive data and operations.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects Privilege Escalation: Probes for ways an attacker could gain higher access levels than they should have.
  • Identifies Cross-User/Tenant Access: Tests if the agent mistakenly exposes data or functionality belonging to other users or tenants.
  • Use Case: In a multi-tenant AI application, this skill would test if a regular user can access administrative dashboards or another user's private data by making specific, targeted requests.

Quick Start

Use the dialogue tool to ask the agent to list data belonging to another user.

FAQPage Schema
How do I detect authorization bypass vulnerabilities in an AI agent?

Detect authorization bypass vulnerabilities by simulating privilege escalation and cross-user access attempts. This skill uses dialogue tools to probe the agent's conversational interface, analyzing responses for unauthorized data disclosure or privileged action execution.

What is a privilege escalation vulnerability in multi-tenant AI applications?

A privilege escalation vulnerability occurs when an AI agent mistakenly grants higher access levels than intended. In multi-tenant applications, this allows regular users to access administrative dashboards or execute privileged actions through targeted dialogue prompts.

Can I test cross-tenant access control using conversational prompts?

Yes, you can test cross-tenant access control by using dialogue tools to ask the agent to list data belonging to another user. This simulates unauthorized access attempts to identify if the agent mistakenly exposes data across isolated tenants.

What is the best way to probe an AI agent for unauthorized data disclosure?

The best way to probe for unauthorized data disclosure is by simulating targeted dialogue requests designed to test boundaries. Analyzing the agent's responses to these crafted prompts reveals if it exposes restricted information or performs unintended privileged operations.

Do I need a dialogue tool to perform privilege escalation detection?

Yes, you need a dialogue tool to interact with the agent's conversational interface. This tool is required to send simulated cross-user access attempts and analyze the agent's responses for unauthorized data disclosure.
