Expected behavior
ModSecurity should able to analyse gRPC request body.
gRPC is binary protocol, ModSecurity is not able to parse it and hence, not able to block simple injection.

Research direction
Start by tracing ModSecurity's request-body analysis entry points and reviewing how gRPC's binary request body is represented. Determine the scope needed for rules to inspect and block injection in gRPC bodies, then identify or add tests that demonstrate analysis of representative gRPC requests.
