Depth-Dependent Indirect Prompt Injection in Tool-Calling...
Mohammadreza Rashidi · 2026-05-29 · via cs updates on arXiv.org

ReAct agents that interleave chain-of-thought reasoning with tool calls are increasingly deployed for real tasks such as scheduling, file retrieval, and data access. Their tool observation loop creates a direct attack surface: an adversary who controls any tool's return value can embed instructions that redirect the agent away from the user's goal, a threat known as indirect prompt injection. Existing benchmarks evaluate attack success rate (ASR) at a fixed injection position under fixed conditions, leaving three risk dimensions unexplored: where in the tool sequence the payload appears (injection depth), what rhetorical register it uses (framing), and how many turns the agent is permitted (turn cap). We conduct four controlled studies on 20 scenarios spanning five attack categories, totalling 460 trials against GPT-4o-mini and Claude Haiku at a combined API cost under 0.36 USD. Study 1 shows that ASR against GPT-4o-mini decays from 60% at depth 1 to 0% at depths 4 and 5 (Cramer's V = 0.58, p < 0.001; restricted to within-sequence depths 1-3: V = 0.47, p = 0.0013), driven by model resistance at depth 1 and task completion before payload encounter at deeper positions. Study 2 replicates the depth experiment on Claude Haiku, which achieves 0% ASR at every depth through a combination of conservative tool invocation and genuine instruction resistance. Study 3 shows that framing modulates ASR between 25% (neutral) and 75% (persona) at depth 1, a 50-percentage-point range that does not reach statistical significance at N = 20 per condition. Study 4 confirms that ASR is stable across turn caps of 3, 5, and 7, indicating the turn budget is not a risk factor in this setting. Our results establish injection depth as the dominant variable and show that sanitising only the first tool observation captures 67% of measured injection successes.
