The user wants me to rewrite a headline about indirect prompt injection attacks against AI agents. Let me analyze the key facts:

Short summary

Palo Alto Networks confirmed real-world indirect prompt injection attacks where adversaries embed malicious instructions in web content that AI agents browse. Attackers exploit agents' inability to distinguish fetched content from instructions in the context window, causing unintended actions. Defense requires semantic scrubbing of tool results using pattern matching and embedding-based similarity scoring.

• •Confirmed real-world indirect prompt injection attacks targeting AI agents that fetch and process external web content
• •Attackers embed payloads in web pages; agents cannot syntactically distinguish content from instructions within the context window
• •Defense requires semantic scrubbing of tool results before they reach the model using pattern matching and vector similarity
