Root Cause

This is especially critical for CrewAI because:

  1. Multiple agents share the same memory pool
  2. One compromised agent can poison memory for all others
  3. Long-running crews accumulate more attack surface over time

Core functionality

Is your feature request related to a an existing bug? Please link it here.

  • Manual input validation before passing to crew (doesn't catch encoded attacks)
  • Prompt-level instructions to agents to "ignore suspicious content" (easily bypassed)
  • External guardrails like NeMo Guardrails (heavy infrastructure, not memory-specific)
  • Using OWASP Agent Memory Guard as standalone middleware wrapping CrewAI (works but not native)
