Misrouter enables input-only attacks on MoE LLMs by optimizing queries on open-source surrogates to route toward weakly aligned experts and transferring them to public APIs.
RouteHijack is a routing-aware jailbreak that identifies safety-critical experts via activation contrast and optimizes suffixes to suppress them, reaching 69.3% average attack success rate on seven MoE LLMs with strong transfer to variants and VLMs.
Linear probes on residual-stream activations identify a shared preference vector in LLMs that tracks choices across prompts and causally steers decisions even for anti-correlated personas.
Cosine-similarity routing in low-dimensional space makes MoE experts monosemantic by construction and enables direct causal control via centroid interventions.
