Researchers have identified a new steganographic attack vector called VectorSmuggle, which allows attackers to hide data within embeddings stored in vector databases used by RAG systems. This method exploits the lack of native integrity controls in many vector stores, enabling attackers to embed sensitive information through simple perturbations while maintaining retrieval functionality. To counter this, the researchers propose VectorPin, a cryptographic provenance protocol that uses digital signatures to verify the integrity and origin of embeddings, thus closing this attack vector.
