EchoLeak / CVE-2025-32711

Researchers documented a zero-click prompt-injection flaw in Microsoft 365 Copilot: a crafted email could induce retrieval and exfiltration of internal information. This is a published vulnerability study, not proof of widespread customer data loss.

Relevance to SecretBridge

Tool calls, retrieval scope and untrusted content are also trust boundaries; SecretBridge controls only operations routed through it.

SecretBridge provides no Web/MCP API to read or export raw credentials and uses stored credentials inside the local broker. This reduces the need to paste secrets into chat. It cannot fix third-party service vulnerabilities, prevent a user from manually pasting a secret, or control the client’s other unrestricted tools.

Sources are an affected provider’s disclosure, the discoverer’s research and a research paper. Event dates, disclosure dates and actual impact are distinct.
