Abstract

This document provides a high-precision technical analysis of Privilege Escalation (EoP) mechanisms. Privilege Escalation is a critical cybersecurity vector where an attacker elevates access from a low-privilege state to a high-privilege level, enabling full administrative control over the target system. In the context of modern AI agents (e.g., Perplexity Comet), EoP occurs when malicious input (Prompt Injection) inherits authenticated user sessions, bypasses boundary checks via MCP APIs, and gains unauthorized device-level access.
