ENDOPROMPT: Victim-Side Pseudo-References for Utility Degradation· ENDOPROMPT：降效前缀生成

Prompt injection can degrade benign task performance without eliciting harmful content. Yet many attack objectives depend on task labels or predefined target responses. We present ENDOPROMPT, a white-box method that learns utility-degrading prefixes from unlabeled instructions. Its generator takes the request text as input. Clean victim continuations serve as pseudo-references: local search identifies prefixes that reduce continuation likelihood, and preference fitting on comparisons within the same instruction, followed by reward refinement, distills this signal into a generator. At deployment, the generator produces one prefix per request without further victim-side search. Across four instruction-tuned models and the complete splits of seven benign benchmarks, ENDOPROMPT yields a mean u
