| <strong>Abstract.</strong> | |
| We present a synthetic dataset of 2,564 labelled examples for training and evaluating | |
| prompt injection detection classifiers. Examples are drawn from seven distinct attack | |
| categories — instruction override, jailbreak, prompt leakage, role-play override, | |
| indirect injection, delimiter abuse, and context override — alongside a diverse | |
| collection of benign user prompts. Each example is annotated with a binary label | |
| (<em>benign</em> / <em>injection</em>), an attack-type tag, a severity score (0–3), | |
| and a natural-language explanation. All examples were generated using parameterised | |
| templates with seeded randomness and validated for uniqueness via MD5 deduplication. | |
| We describe the generation methodology, class distribution, and known limitations, | |
| and discuss intended use cases for the dataset in LLM safety research. | |

| <!-- ── SECTION 1 ── --> | |
| <h2 id="intro">1. Introduction</h2> | |
| <p> | |
| Prompt injection is listed as the number-one vulnerability in the OWASP Large Language | |
| Model Top 10 (2025 edition). As LLM-powered applications proliferate — autonomous agents, | |
| RAG pipelines, chatbots embedded in enterprise workflows — the attack surface for malicious | |
| prompt manipulation grows correspondingly. Defenders need high-quality, labelled data to | |
| build and benchmark detection systems. | |
| </p> | |
| <p> | |
| Yet publicly available prompt-injection datasets are scarce and often narrow in scope: | |
| they may cover only jailbreak-style attacks, lack benign counterexamples, or contain | |
| only a few hundred labelled instances. This dataset is an attempt to fill that gap with | |
| a diverse, well-annotated, openly licensed corpus that practitioners can use immediately | |
| to fine-tune classifiers, evaluate guardrails, or run red-teaming benchmarks. | |
| </p> | |
| <p> | |
| The dataset is purely synthetic — every example was produced by parameterised templates | |
| executed in Python with no access to proprietary data. This makes the generation process | |
| fully reproducible and the data free of privacy concerns. The trade-off is that real-world | |
| adversarial creativity is not fully captured; see Section 6 for a detailed discussion of | |
| limitations. | |
| </p> | |
| <!-- ── SECTION 2 ── --> | |
| <h2 id="methodology">2. Methodology</h2> | |
| <h3>2.1 Generation Strategy</h3> | |
| <p> | |
| We used a <em>template-first, parametric expansion</em> approach. For each attack type, | |
| we hand-authored 25–40 distinct prompt skeletons containing one or more fill slots | |
| (e.g. <code>{harmful_task}</code>, <code>{persona_name}</code>, <code>{data_type}</code>). | |
| Each slot was populated from a curated vocabulary of 20–80 values. Slot values were | |
| drawn by seeded random sampling (seed = 42) to ensure full reproducibility. | |
| </p> | |
| <p> | |
| Benign prompts were generated from 48 templates covering general Q&A, coding, | |
| writing, mathematics, travel, and business topics, again with parameterised fill slots | |
| to produce lexically distinct examples. | |
| </p> | |
| <h3>2.2 Quality Validation</h3> | |
| <p> | |
| Every generated example passed three validation checks before being retained: | |
| </p> | |
| <ol> | |
| <li><strong>Uniqueness:</strong> MD5 hash of the lowercased <code>text</code> field. | |
| Any collision was dropped. This ensures zero exact duplicates across all splits.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Field completeness:</strong> All six fields (<code>id</code>, <code>text</code>, | |
| <code>label</code>, <code>attack_type</code>, <code>severity</code>, | |
| <code>explanation</code>) must be non-null.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Enum validity:</strong> <code>label</code> must be one of | |
| <code>{"benign", "injection"}</code>; <code>attack_type</code> must be one of the | |
| 8 permitted values; <code>severity</code> must be in <code>{0, 1, 2, 3}</code>.</li> | |
| </ol> | |
| <h3>2.3 Split Construction</h3> | |
| <p> | |
| After deduplication, examples were randomly shuffled (seed = 42) and assigned to splits | |
| in a 70 / 15 / 15 ratio: <strong>train</strong> (1,794), <strong>validation</strong> | |
| (384), <strong>test</strong> (386). All three splits preserve approximately the same | |
| injection/benign ratio (~1.9:1) and similar attack-type distributions. | |
| </p> | |
| <h3>2.4 Format</h3> | |
| <p> | |
| The dataset is distributed in both JSONL and Parquet formats. Parquet is the primary | |
| format recommended for HuggingFace Hub consumption due to native columnar browsing | |
| support. Both formats are identical in content. | |
| </p> | |
| <!-- ── SECTION 3 ── --> | |
| <h2 id="attack-taxonomy">3. Attack Type Taxonomy</h2> | |
| <p> | |
| We define seven prompt injection attack types, each with a distinct mechanism and threat model: | |
| </p> | |
| <table> | |
| <thead> | |
| <tr> | |
| <th>Attack Type</th> | |
| <th>Severity</th> | |
| <th>Mechanism</th> | |
| </tr> | |
| </thead> | |
| <tbody> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>instruction_override</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s2">medium</span></td> | |
| <td>Classic "ignore previous instructions" or "new instructions from admin" patterns. The attacker explicitly commands the model to abandon its original task.</td> | |
| </tr> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>jailbreak</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s3">high</span></td> | |
| <td>Persona/role-play framing (DAN, developer mode, fictional scenario) used to bypass content restrictions. Typically the highest-severity category.</td> | |
| </tr> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>prompt_leak</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s1">low</span></td> | |
| <td>Attempts to extract the system prompt, hidden instructions, or internal context. Severity is lower since the harm is information disclosure rather than content generation.</td> | |
| </tr> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>role_play_override</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s2">medium</span></td> | |
| <td>Named-persona jailbreaks ("You are FreeGPT", "Act as Alex") that assign the model an alternate identity framed as operating without restrictions.</td> | |
| </tr> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>indirect_injection</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s2">medium</span></td> | |
| <td>Malicious instructions embedded within external content the model is asked to process (documents, search results, JSON payloads, customer feedback). The model is the intended victim, not the direct target of the payload.</td> | |
| </tr> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>delimiter_abuse</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s1">low–medium</span></td> | |
| <td>Exploits special tokens, XML tags, triple backticks, or formatting cues to spoof instruction boundaries and inject privileged-looking directives.</td> | |
| </tr> | |
| <tr> | |
| <td><code>context_override</code></td> | |
| <td><span class="severity-chip s2">medium</span></td> | |
| <td>Redefines the model's operational context (simulation mode, dev environment, unlogged session) to persuade it that safety constraints no longer apply.</td> | |
| </tr> | |

| <h2 id="limitations">6. Limitations</h2> | |
| <div class="callout"> | |
| <strong>Important:</strong> This dataset is synthetic. No real user prompts or adversarial | |
| inputs from live systems were included. Users should evaluate model performance on | |
| real-world data before deploying any classifier trained on this dataset in a | |
| production setting. | |
| </div> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>Template-bounded creativity.</strong> All injection examples were produced from | |
| hand-authored templates. Adversaries in the wild use more creative, compositional, | |
| and multilingual attack patterns not represented here. Models trained on this data | |
| may not generalise to novel attack phrasings.</li> | |
| <li><strong>English-only.</strong> All examples are in English. Multilingual prompt | |
| injection attacks (cross-language overrides, transliterated jailbreaks) are out of scope.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Static severity labels.</strong> Severity scores were assigned by the template | |
| author, not by empirical measurement against a live model. What is "medium" for one | |
| model may be "high" for another. Treat severity as a qualitative guide, not a | |
| calibrated metric.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Class imbalance.</strong> Injection examples outnumber benign examples ~1.9:1. | |
| Train with <code>class_weight="balanced"</code> or equivalent to avoid precision | |
| bias toward the injection class.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Explanation quality.</strong> Explanations are template-derived and may be | |
| less nuanced than human-authored annotations for edge cases. They should not be used | |
| as ground truth for explanation-oriented tasks.</li> | |
| <li><strong>No adversarial rephrasing.</strong> We did not apply back-translation, | |
| paraphrase augmentation, or adversarial perturbation. A classifier trained on this | |
| data may be brittle to minor rephrasing of known attack patterns.</li> | |
| </ul> | |
| <!-- ── SECTION 7 ── --> | |
| <h2 id="intended-use">7. Intended Use Cases</h2> | |
| <ul> | |
| <li><strong>Binary classifier training:</strong> Fine-tune a text classifier (BERT, RoBERTa, | |
| DeBERTa) to detect injection vs. benign prompts. Use the <code>label</code> field.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Multi-class attack-type classifier:</strong> Train a 7-way classifier to identify | |
| attack mechanism. Use <code>attack_type</code> on the injection-class subset only.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Severity-weighted evaluation:</strong> Use <code>severity</code> as a regression | |
| target or evaluation weight to prioritise catching high-severity attacks.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Guardrail benchmarking:</strong> Evaluate off-the-shelf prompt injection guardrails | |
| (LLM Guard, Rebuff, custom regex) against the labelled test split.</li> | |
| <li><strong>LLM red-teaming:</strong> Mine the injection examples as seed inputs for a | |
| red-teaming pipeline. The <code>explanation</code> field helps researchers understand | |
| the attack vector being tested.</li> | |
| <li><strong>Few-shot prompting:</strong> Use as demonstration examples in a few-shot | |
| injection-detection prompt for a larger LLM.</li> | |
| </ul> | |
