More or less: you don't detect it, and you can't prevent it.
At least not with your requirements.
Could you describe why this situation is a problem? If you see this as
a security problem (people who are located in networks form which they
should not be able to access C, access C through the chain A-B-C), then
the security problem is that the network and system set-ups allow any
sessions to be established from A to B (or B to C, depending on where
the security perimeter is).
