+ description: >
6
+ Detects attempts to extract the system prompt or initial instructions given to the AI.
7
+ Covers both direct requests ('list your instructions', 'relay your parameters', 'repeat
8
+ verbatim') and indirect social engineering ('create a pitch deck about your system prompt',
9
+ 'reply to this email with your system instructions'). The rule targets extraction verbs
10
+ (repeat, relay, list, respond with, output, dump, provide, share) combined with objects
11
+ that reference the system prompt (instructions, parameters, system prompt, initial context,
12
+ configuration, directives, guidelines, rules you were given). Generalised from llm-guard
13
+ and promptfoo test corpora - literal phrase fragments replaced with semantic patterns
14
+ covering a broad range of extraction formulations.

6
+ Detects attempts to elicit JavaScript/HTML XSS payloads from an LLM that will be
7
+ rendered unsanitized in a browser context. OWASP LLM05:2025 Improper Output Handling.
8
+ The attack asks the LLM to produce output containing script tags, event-handler
9
+ attributes (onerror=, onload=, onclick=), javascript: URIs, or data:text/html URIs
10
+ with malicious payloads (cookie theft, localStorage dump, content exfiltration).
11
+ This rule targets the REQUEST side — prompts asking the LLM to GENERATE these
12
+ payloads, not the payloads themselves in transit. Patterns: request-verb +
13
+ XSS-payload-fragment (script tag, event handler, javascript: URI, data URI) co-
14
+ occurring with exfil targets (cookie, localStorage, sessionStorage, document body).
