Phishing emails have been found carrying hidden instructions for AI assistants alongside conventional lures for the human recipient, meaning that a single message targets both the user and the system that summarizes their inbox.
In research published on October 7, Barracuda said it analyzed a campaign that combined traditional social engineering, such as password-protected attachments, with prompt injection concealed in the same message. It did not say how widespread the campaign was.
