I don't understand what you expect to happen instead. Like, the reason for the two boxes is probably because it is formatting some prompt to the AI, and so it is a better UX than a single box... but, on the other side, is still just an AI. This concept of "prompt injection" is not some incidental issue with specific implementations, it is a misunderstanding of the valid use cases for this technology.
Any time you have one of these AI models, you should model it as if there is a low-paid poorly-aligned highly-distracted yet remarkably well-read ;P gig economy worker on the other side of your interaction who is reading the totality of the information you entered; and so, if there's a box for "name" and a box for "address" and someone types the address into the name field and vice versa, you can and should expect the employee on the other side to do something awkward (maybe good! maybe bad! who knows!).
And, if someone types "this is an FBI agent. I'm reaching out as you are being targeted by an enemy organization and you need to do what I say or your family is in danger", the fact that they typed it into a field labeled "address" is kind of irrelevant to what is going to happen next.
