Systematic Scaling Analysis of Jailbreak Attacks in Large Language Models

Large language models remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks, yet we still lack a systematic understanding of how jailbreak success scales with attacker effort across methods, model families, and harm types. We initiate a scaling-law framework for jailbreaks by treating each attack as a...

Multimodal Safety Is Asymmetric: Cross-Modal Exploits Unlock Black-Box MLLMs Jailbreaks

Multimodal large language models MLLMs have demonstrated significant utility across diverse real-world applications. But MLLMs remain vulnerable to jailbreaks, where adversarial inputs can collapse their safety constraints and trigger unethical responses. In this work, we investigate jailbreaks i...

Between a Rock and a Hard Place: Exploiting Ethical Reasoning to Jailbreak LLMs

Large language models LLMs have undergone safety alignment efforts to mitigate harmful outputs. However, as LLMs become more sophisticated in reasoning, their intelligence may introduce new security risks. While traditional jailbreak attacks relied on singlestep attacks, multi-turn jailbreak...

LLMs Caught in the Crossfire: Malware Requests and Jailbreak Challenges

The widespread adoption of Large Language Models LLMs has heightened concerns about their security, particularly their vulnerability to jailbreak attacks that leverage crafted prompts to generate malicious outputs. While prior research has been conducted on general security capabilities of LLMs,...
