The Struggle Between Continuation and Refusal: A Mechanistic Analysis of the Continuation-Triggered Jailbreak in LLMs

This paper presents a mechanistic analysis of continuation-triggered jailbreaks in large language models, where attackers exploit the model's tendency to continue text patterns to bypass safety guardrails. The research identifies specific internal mechanisms that enable these attacks, providing insights into LLM vulnerability patterns that enterprise security teams should understand when deploying models in regulated environments.
