• Abstract summary: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown significant progress in responding well to visual-instructions from users. These instructions, encompassing images and text, are susceptible to both intentional and inadvertent attacks. We introduce B-AVIBench, a framework designed to analyze the robustness of LVLMs when facing various Black-box Adrial Visual-Instructions.

• Abstract: Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) have shown significant progress in responding well to visual-instructions from users. However, these instructions, encompassing images and text, are susceptible to both intentional and inadvertent attacks. Despite the critical importance of LVLMs' robustness against such threats, current research in this area remains limited. To bridge this gap, we introduce B-AVIBench, a framework designed to analyze the robustness of LVLMs when facing various Black-box Adversarial Visual-Instructions (B-AVIs), including four types of image-based B-AVIs, ten types of text-based B-AVIs, and nine types of content bias B-AVIs (such as gender, violence, cultural, and racial biases, among others). We generate 316K B-AVIs encompassing five categories of multimodal capabilities (ten tasks) and content bias. We then conduct a comprehensive evaluation involving 14 open-source LVLMs to assess their performance. B-AVIBench also serves as a convenient tool for practitioners to evaluate the robustness of LVLMs against B-AVIs. Our findings and extensive experimental results shed light on the vulnerabilities of LVLMs, and highlight that inherent biases exist even in advanced closed-source LVLMs like GeminiProVision and GPT-4V. This underscores the importance of enhancing the robustness, security, and fairness of LVLMs. The source code and benchmark are available at https://github.com/zhanghao5201/B-AVIBench.

  Vision-Language Models (VLMs) are integrated with Large Language Models (LLMs) to enhance multi-modal machine learning capabilities. This paper aims to assess the resilience of VLMs against jailbreak attacks that can compromise model safety compliance and result in harmful outputs. To evaluate a VLM's ability to maintain its robustness against adversarial input perturbations, we propose a novel metric called the textbfRetention Score.

  Current vision large language models (VLLMs) exhibit remarkable capabilities yet are prone to generate harmful content and are vulnerable to jailbreaking attacks. Our initial analysis finds that this is due to the presence of harmful data during vision-language instruction fine-tuning. To address this issue, we first curate a vision-language safe instruction-following dataset VLGuard covering various harmful categories.
