• Abstract: Large language models have drawn significant attention to the challenge of safe alignment, especially regarding jailbreak attacks that circumvent security measures to produce harmful content. To address the limitations of existing methods like GCG, which perform well in single-model attacks but lack transferability, we propose several enhancements, including a scenario induction template, optimized suffix selection, and the integration of re-suffix attack mechanism to reduce inconsistent outputs. Our approach has shown superior performance in extensive experiments across various benchmarks, achieving nearly 100% success rates in both attack execution and transferability. Notably, our method has won the first place in the AISG-hosted Global Challenge for Safe and Secure LLMs. The code is released at https://github.com/HqingLiu/SI-GCG.

• A Realistic Threat Model for Large Language Model Jailbreaks [87.64278063236847]
  In this work, we propose a unified threat model for the principled comparison of jailbreak attacks. Our threat model combines constraints in perplexity, measuring how far a jailbreak deviates from natural text. We adapt popular attacks to this new, realistic threat model, with which we, for the first time, benchmark these attacks on equal footing.

Our method achieves over 90% attack success rates against Llama-2-Chat models on AdvBench, despite their outstanding resistance to jailbreak attacks.

  We propose an adaptive position pre-fill jailbreak attack approach for executing jailbreak attacks on Large Language Models (LLMs) Our method leverages the model's instruction-following capabilities to first output safe content, then exploits its narrative-shifting abilities to generate harmful content. Our method can improve the attack success rate by 47% on the widely recognized secure model (Llama2) compared to existing approaches.

  Transfer attacks generate significant interest for black-box applications. Existing works essentially directly optimize the single-level objective w.r.t. surrogate model. We propose a bilevel optimization paradigm, which explicitly reforms the nested relationship between the Upper-Level (UL) pseudo-victim attacker and the Lower-Level (LL) surrogate attacker.
