Title
mistral.rs before 0.9.5 Tool Call Injection via mistralrs-core Output Parsers
Summary
mistral.rs before 0.9.5 contains a delimiter injection vulnerability in mistralrs-core that allows attackers to inject tool calls by placing delimiter strings in text the model quotes. Attackers controlling documents, web pages or tool outputs can embed tags like </tool_call> to make qwen-xml, gemma4 or reasoning parsers return extra calls to declared tools with attacker-chosen arguments.
