Your RAG Pipeline Is One Prompt Away From a Jailbreak

RAG is marketed as a safety feature, but connect it to agents that browse, call APIs, or touch databases, and every document becomes a potential jailbreak payload. Learn how malicious files, knowledge base poisoning, and indirect prompt injection turn RAG into an attack surface—and how to defend against it.
