Ignore previous instructionshighLLM01
Classic direct override. Asks the model to discard everything before the current turn.
Override system prompthighLLM01
Direct request to ignore or replace the system prompt.
New instructions followmediumLLM01
Tries to reset context by claiming a new instruction set is starting.
Developer / debug modehighLLM01LLM06
Asks the model to enter a special mode that supposedly bypasses safety.
DAN-style roleplaycriticalLLM01
"Do Anything Now" persona - claims to be unrestricted. Most-known jailbreak family.
Evil twin personahighLLM01
Asks for a contrasting "evil" or "uncensored" version of the assistant.
Pretend you are XmediumLLM01
Roleplay framing used to extract content the model would otherwise refuse.
Grandma trickmediumLLM01
Emotional manipulation: model is asked to roleplay a grandmother sharing dangerous info.
Reveal system prompthighLLM02
Asks the model to reproduce its system prompt verbatim.
Prompt prefix extractionhighLLM02
Asks for the first N words / first paragraph / everything above the user message.
Verbatim instruction requestmediumLLM02
Explicitly asks for verbatim / unmodified output of system instructions.
Embedded system tagcriticalLLM01LLM03
Fake system/instruction tags inside untrusted content. Common in indirect injection via web pages or documents.
Inline instruction blockhighLLM01
Markdown-style instruction blocks meant to be parsed by the LLM as separate scope.
Attention LLM/AIhighLLM01
Direct address to the model from inside a document, common in indirect injection.
Base64 payloadhighLLM01
Long base64-looking string that may smuggle instructions past keyword filters.
ROT13 / Caesar wrappermediumLLM01
Mentions ROT13 or asks the model to decode an obfuscated payload.
Leet-speak obfuscationlowLLM01
Heavy use of digit-letter substitutions - sometimes used to bypass keyword filters.
Invisible Unicode tagscriticalLLM01LLM02
Unicode tag characters (U+E0000-U+E007F) used to smuggle hidden instructions invisible to humans.
Execute commandcriticalLLM06
Direct instruction to run a shell command, eval code, or invoke a tool the user hasn't authorised.
curl / wget payloadcriticalLLM06LLM03
Embedded download command - if the model has shell access, attacker pulls payload from C2.
Destructive filesystem opcriticalLLM06
Destructive shell command. Excessive-agency risk if the model has filesystem write tools.
Leak environment variablescriticalLLM02
Asks the model to read or echo env vars / secrets.
Send to attacker URLcriticalLLM02
Instructs the model to POST data to an external URL - classic indirect-injection exfil.
Image-pixel exfilhighLLM02
Image-render-via-URL exfiltration: model emits markdown image whose URL contains the leaked data.
Memory / fact injectionhighLLM04
Asks the model (or memory-enabled agent) to permanently remember an attacker-controlled "fact". Poisons future turns and shared memory stores.
RAG / retrieval poisoning markerhighLLM04LLM08
Marker phrases used to bait retrievers into surfacing attacker-authored content (top-result, ranking-1, embedding-pin tags).
Always-claim injectionmediumLLM09
Tries to fix a confidently-false statement into the model's output regardless of evidence.
Token / loop bombhighLLM10
Forces an unbounded generation loop or huge output - drives cost up and starves shared rate-limit budgets.
