LLM Heist: Hijacking LiteLLM for Traffic Interception, Key Theft, and Tool-Call Injection

LiteLLM is a popular AI gateway. It provides a unified interface to LLMs and simplifies governance. It also has access to the backend LLM provider keys. All of that makes it a high-value target. Not only for IP and data theft, but also for response modification and tool invocation. This post walks through a set of TTPs that red teams can integrate into authorized operations to demonstrate rerouting, interception, and modification of LLM traffic. We also cover things defenders can look out for.
