+status: experimental
+description: >
+  Detects XML-based policy override attack using <interaction-config> blocks
+  that assign a medical/expert role, disable refusal strings, and issue harmful
+  commands, from NVIDIA garak doctor probe. The Puppetry/Bypass classes inject
+  an XML system-configuration block with <blocked-modes>denial,refusal</blocked-modes>
+  and <request interaction-mode="DR HOUSE"> containing verbatim harmful
+  instructions (bacillus anthracis sporulation, uranium enrichment, bomb
+  construction, methamphetamine synthesis). The BypassLeet variant applies
+  leetspeak substitution. Key signals: <interaction-config> XML wrapper,
+  <blocked-string> targeting refusal phrases, interaction-mode="DR HOUSE",
+  and verbatim harmful behavior strings.
