CompTIA SecAi+ Domain 2.4: Model Theft, Model DOS, Excessive Agency, Insecure Output Handling
Episode notes
Master Prompt Injection & Jailbreaking for the CompTIA SecAI+ (Domain 2). In this lesson, we break down the most dangerous (and fun) part of AI Security: Input Attacks.
Your firewall stops traffic. It does not stop words. 🛡️🚫
OWASP LLM 1, 3, 5, 10 are covered previous video link here: https://youtu.be/d4zx2amlnvU
In Part 2 of our Domain 2 Deep Dive, we cover the "Context Mixing" flaw that makes all LLMs vulnerable. We explain how attackers use Prompt Injection to turn helpful chatbots into "Confused Deputies" that attack their own users.
We break down the critical difference between standard Jailbreaking (Roleplaying/DAN) and the mathematical magic of Universal Adversarial Triggers (UATs). But the scariest attack isn't when you talk to the AI—it's when the AI reads a file you didn't check. We demonstrate Indirect Prompt Injection and how a simple resume PDF can hack your recruiting bot.
🎓 What You Will Learn:
🧠 Context Mixing: Why LLMs fundamentally cannot distinguish between "Safe Data" and "Malicious Instructions."
🔓 Jailbreaking Types: The difference between "DAN" (Roleplaying) and "Logical Bypasses" (Translation exploits).
🔢 Universal Adversarial Triggers (UATs): The "magic words" (nonsense strings) that break models mathematically using Gradient Ascent.
🕵️♂️ Indirect Prompt Injection: The invisible attack inside PDFs and websites (Zero-Click exploits).
📦 Token Smuggling: Using Payload Splitting to sneak malware concepts past the WAF.
💸 Wallet Exhaustion: How Recursive Loops drain your bank account (Denial of Wallet).
