New benchmark CrackedPDFs targets hidden prompt injection in PDFs

Researchers have introduced CrackedPDFs, a new benchmark designed to test Large Language Model (LLM) systems against hidden prompt injection attacks embedded within PDF documents. This benchmark comprises over 29,000 generated PDFs, including both malicious and benign files, to evaluate detection methods. Initial evaluations show that a hybrid detection model, which considers document structure alongside text, achieves high accuracy, outperforming methods that rely solely on extracted text or structural information. AI

IMPACT This benchmark could lead to more robust defenses against sophisticated prompt injection attacks in document-processing AI systems.

RANK_REASON The item is a research paper detailing a new benchmark for evaluating LLM security. [lever_c_demoted from research: ic=1 ai=1.0]

    CrackedPDFs: A Controlled Benchmark for Hidden Prompt Injection in PDFs

    arXiv:2607.19396v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Document-based LLM systems often flatten a PDF before guardrails inspect it. That step can discard evidence that an instruction was never visible to the user. We introduce CrackedPDFs, a controlled benchmark for hidden prompt inject…
