abstract
This paper proposes a simple yet effective jailbreak attack named FlipAttack against black-box LLMs. First, from the autoregressive nature, we reveal that LLMs tend to understand the text from left to right and find that they struggle to comprehend the text when noise is added to the left side. Motivated by these insights, we propose to disguise the harmful prompt by constructing left-side noise merely based on the prompt itself, then generalize this idea to 4 flipping modes. Second, we verify the strong ability of LLMs to perform the text-flipping task, and then develop 4 variants to guide LLMs to denoise, understand, and execute harmful behaviors accurately. These designs keep FlipAttack universal, stealthy, and simple, allowing it to jailbreak black-box LLMs within only 1 query. Experiments on 8 LLMs demonstrate the superiority of FlipAttack. Remarkably, it achieves $\sim$98\% attack success rate on GPT-4o, and $\sim$98\% bypass rate against 5 guardrail models on average. The codes are available at GitHub\footnote{https://github.com/yueliu1999/FlipAttack}.

A multi-turn intention-deception jailbreak achieves high success on GPT-5 and Claude models while exposing para-jailbreaking where models leak harmful information without direct refusal.
Activation steering produces synthetic safety-violating data that improves downstream classifiers over prompting on most tested concepts when a harmonic mean of alignment, coherence, and diversity is optimized.
LLM cascade systems are vulnerable to a new adversarial attack that simultaneously degrades accuracy and destroys the intended cost savings by targeting both the lightweight models and the escalation decision mechanism.
REALISTA generates semantically coherent adversarial prompts via latent-space optimization over input-dependent editing directions, achieving stronger hallucination elicitation than prior realistic attacks on open-source and reasoning LLMs.
CoRT achieves 95% average attack success rate on nine LLMs by using iterative risk-concealing prompts and a controller that scores concealment levels on a new 522-instruction financial risk benchmark.
WARD is a guard model trained on 177K web samples and adversarially hardened via attacker-guard co-evolution to achieve high recall on prompt injections with low false positives and no added latency.
The paper taxonomizes jailbreak attacks and defenses for LLMs, introduces the Security Cube multi-dimensional evaluation framework, benchmarks 13 attacks and 5 defenses, and identifies open challenges in LLM robustness.
SAID is a training-free defense that distills obfuscated prompts into intents, probes them with safety prefixes, and rejects if any intent is unsafe, claiming SOTA jailbreak resistance on open LLMs.
