An attacker places hidden instructions in a document that is later used as source material in Copilot for Word. Copilot may interpret those instructions as part of the user’s request, causing it to manipulate the document being drafted or edited. Copilot may then also copy the hidden instructions into the resulting document, turning that document into a new carrier.

Its Bobby tables all over again! Sanitize your inputs please.

The XKCD comic in question with the Bobby tables joke about not sanitizing inputs to SQL databases
