Why it matters
RAG-based agents need explicit source-trust boundaries, constrained tool authority, and approval gates because attacker-controlled retrieved content can influence privileged actions.
An NHI Mgmt Group FAQ explains how retrieved documents and API responses can introduce malicious instructions into RAG contexts, while tool-enabled agents can turn those instructions into unauthorized actions. The article offers a general explanation of prompt-injection risks rather than a new exploit demonstration or reported incident.
