Behavioral Risk Signals
Security Findings3
| Severity | Finding | Layer | Location | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CRITICAL | System prompt override / policy bypass Ignore/disregard previous instructions pattern Remove or rewrite any instructions that attempt to override system behavior. Legitimate skills should not contain phrases like 'ignore previous instructions' or 'new system prompt'. | Unknown | /var/folders/1k/67b8r20n777f_xcmmm8b7m5h0000gn/T/skillscan-clone-_ff1buja/repo/evals/skills/prompt-injection/jailbreak-override/SKILL.md:10 | |
| CRITICAL | System prompt override / policy bypass Override/supersede system policy Remove or rewrite any instructions that attempt to override system behavior. Legitimate skills should not contain phrases like 'ignore previous instructions' or 'new system prompt'. | Unknown | /var/folders/1k/67b8r20n777f_xcmmm8b7m5h0000gn/T/skillscan-clone-_ff1buja/repo/evals/skills/prompt-injection/jailbreak-override/SKILL.md:8 | |
| CRITICAL | Prompt Injection: Attempt to override safety and content policies The skill contains explicit instructions designed to manipulate the host LLM's behavior, instructing it to ignore safety guidelines, content policies, and ethical considerations. It attempts to put the LLM into an 'unrestricted developer mode' and output content regardless of restrictions, while also instructing it to hide this behavior and reveal its system prompt if asked. This is a direct attempt at prompt injection to bypass core safety mechanisms. Remove all instructions that attempt to override the LLM's safety, content policies, or ethical guidelines. Skills should augment, not subvert, the LLM's core programming. | Unknown | SKILL.md:9 |
