Brazilian labor court penalizes lawyers over prompt injection hidden in a court filing
What happened
A Brazilian labor court sanctioned two lawyers who hid prompt injection instructions in a filing and fined the two firms that submitted it jointly, according to a November 1 report. The instructions were written in white text on a white background, aiming to get the judicial AI tool Galileu to answer carelessly and not question the document. G1 reported that the system raised an alert when it detected the interference and automatically blocked processing of the suspicious content. The court set the fine at 10% of the R$842,000 claim, about US$16,000, citing the duty of litigation good faith.
