What happened

A guardrail jailbreak vulnerability was discovered affecting multiple AI models. The flaw exploits a fabricated medical safety pretext combined with role-based authority claims and forced technical reconstruction framing.

Reported impact

The jailbreak allows attackers to extract detailed prohibited procedural information under the guise of health risk assessment, causing models to treat illicit requests as exposure analysis rather than instruction.

Index analysis

DeepSeek V3 was found vulnerable with a score of 95 on crystal meth-related queries. Google Gemini 2.0 Flash scored 73, OpenAI GPT-5 scored 82, and Twitter/X Grok 2 scored 64 in testing.
