RoleBreak Character Jailbreak

Published Analyzed Source: arXiv

Large Language Models (LLMs) used in role-playing systems are vulnerable to character hallucination attacks, a form of jailbreak exploiting "query sparsity" and "role-query conflict". Query sparsity occurs when prompts fall outside the model's training data distribution, causing it to generate out-of-character responses. Role-query conflict arises when the prompt contradicts the established character persona, leading to inconsistent behavior. These vulnerabilities allow attackers to elicit…

Research methodology

Entries summarize publicly available primary-source security research. Model names reflect only systems explicitly evaluated by the cited paper, and measurements are research-reported unless independent verification is stated.

Discovery and publication are separate: new papers enter a candidate queue, then require human review and explicit approval before publication. Updates follow that review process, not a guaranteed daily publishing schedule. “Last analyzed” is the newest analysis date among published entries; it does not mean that all recent research has been covered.
