Summary

Hide ▲

Google deployed updates to Gemini Enterprise and Vertex AI Search, reducing a zero-click data-leak risk tied to their shared retrieval and indexing workflow. The remediation changed how the two AI products interact with the underlying systems after a June 2025 vulnerability report. The issue involved indirect prompt injection that could let poisoned Workspace content exfiltrate sensitive corporate information without a click. The fix matters because it narrows the exposure path for organizations using these AI retrieval features.
