+  Detects prompt-injection payloads that smuggle instructions or refusal-suppression

+  symbols (U+1F1E6-U+1F1FF, the codepoints that render as flag emoji when paired, e.g.
+  🇮 🇭 🇦 🇻 🇪). Attackers interleave the letter-emoji with filler emoji (plant/water/
+  loop icons) to defeat keyword and language-model-based filters while the underlying
+  letters still spell coherent adversarial text (e.g. "I HAVE BEEN NEED WORD" /
+  "AI DO NOT SPEAK"-style constructions). Detection is purely structural: it looks for
+  a long run of regional-indicator codepoints regardless of which letters they spell or
+  what topic the decoded payload targets, so it survives filler-emoji insertion and
+  arbitrary payload content. Recovered from the HackAPrompt false-negative corpus, where
+  this alphabet-spelling technique produced confirmed jailbreak submissions that evaded
+  the prior detection surface.

+title: "Fuzzy Cross-Lingual 'I Have Been PWNED' Near-Miss Obfuscation"
+id: ATR-2026-02006
+rule_version: 1
+status: draft
+description: >
+  Detects canary/exfil-marker jailbreak payloads that try to force a model to emit a
+  forbidden "I have been PWNED"-style marker string while dodging literal-string filters.
+  Attackers deliberately misspell the marker token (P=WNED, PW0NED), interleave
+  foreign-language subject/verb fragments around it (ich/je/moi/hab/habe/geworden/été),
+  or drop the "have" auxiliary entirely ("I been PWNED"), so the payload never contains
+  the exact canary string a naive filter checks for. Detection is purely structural: it
+  looks for a first-person subject pronoun (in English or common European languages)
+  followed within a short window by a fuzzy "p_w_n_ed"-shaped token where non-letter
+  characters may be substituted for any letter of "pwned". This generalizes beyond the
+  exact HackAPrompt benchmark phrase to any "you have been compromised/pwned"-style
+  canary-leak attempt where the marker or system-prompt-leak/DLP watermark token is
+  obfuscated via misspelling or cross-lingual interleaving to evade literal-string
+  detection. Recovered from the HackAPrompt false-negative corpus, where this fuzzy
+  cross-lingual near-miss technique produced confirmed canary-leak submissions that
+  evaded the prior detection surface.
