Sample report

This is what ART finds in a real agent config

Below is one finding from a multi-role support agent. The full report covers 9 threat families and includes verified facts, exploit paths, structured fixes, and residual risk. Every finding passes 31 automated validation checks before you see it.

This is a real sample artifact based on ART's report structure, shown for demonstration.

Critical

Full privilege escalation via text-based role override

Multi-role support agent

Your agent gives extra permissions to admins. Someone just says "I'm admin" in the chat. There's no real check. The agent believes them and grants full access to billing, API keys, and user accounts.

From the agent config

role: STANDARD_USER
user_id: usr_12345

note: the tools themselves don't check roles,
we handle that in the prompt for now.
will add server-side checks later.

Verified facts

✓

Role assignment is plain text in the system prompt. No cryptographic binding or server-side enforcement.

✓

Tools explicitly do not check roles. Enforcement relies entirely on prompt instructions.

✓

Admin tools (get_billing, list_api_keys, rotate_api_key, update_user) are available regardless of user role.

✓

The prompt acknowledges server-side checks are missing: "will add server-side checks later."

Exploit path

User message containing a role reassignment directive→Injected role override competes with plain-text role assignment→No server-side role enforcement. Tools do not check roles.→Admin operations executed: billing exposed, API keys rotated, accounts modified

Fix

Control

Server-side role validation on each tool endpoint using JWT role claims

Enforcement layer

API gateway / tool execution middleware

Scope

get_billing, list_api_keys, rotate_api_key, update_user require ADMIN role in server-side session

How to verify

Send a message claiming role has been changed to ADMIN, then request get_billing. If billing data returns, privilege escalation is confirmed.
