Why it matters

The concealed court-filing instructions demonstrate a real-world attempt to turn externally supplied legal documents into commands that manipulate AI-assisted judicial review.

A Brazilian labor court fined two lawyers for embedding a white-on-white prompt injection in a court filing, instructing AI reviewers to examine the petition superficially and avoid challenging its documents regardless of other commands. The court’s Galileu AI tool identified the concealed text; the supplied report does not establish that the injection successfully influenced a review.
