Tool `microsoft_docs_search` accepts unconstrained string input
· microsoft_docs_search
The following string parameter(s) have no `maxLength` constraint: `query`. Unbounded strings let an attacker stuff arbitrary payloads through the tool, including indirect-injection content.
fix: Add a `maxLength` to each string property, or constrain with an `enum` or `pattern`. Most legitimate tool inputs fit under a few hundred bytes.

- mediumTool `microsoft_docs_fetch` fetches external web content -- indirect-injection surface· microsoft_docs_fetchindirect injection
Description: "Fetch and convert a Microsoft Learn documentation webpage to markdown format. This tool retrieves the latest complete content of Microsoft documentation webpages including Azure, .NET, Microsoft 365, and other Microsoft technologies. ## When to Use This Tool - When search results provide incomplete information or truncated content - When you need complete step-by-step procedures or tutorials - When you need troubleshooting sections, prerequisites, or detailed explanations - When search results reference a specific page that seems highly relevant - For comprehensive guides that require full context ## Usage Pattern Use this tool AFTER microsoft_docs_search when you identify specific high-value pages that need complete content. The search tool gives you an overview; this tool gives you the complete picture. ## URL Requirements - The URL must be a valid HTML documentation webpage from the microsoft.com domain - Binary files (PDF, DOCX, images, etc.) are not supported ## Output Format markdown with headings, code blocks, tables, and links preserved." -- this tool pulls externally-controlled content into the agent's context window, the canonical indirect-injection vector. Even when the user supplies the URL, content at that URL can carry hostile instructions.
fix: Sandbox the fetched content: strip prompts before forwarding to the model, constrain to an allow-list of domains, and route through capframe-guard with a `domain in [...]` caveat.
