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.
MASCing uses an LSTM surrogate and optimized steering masks to enable flexible, inference-time control over MoE expert routing for safety objectives, improving jailbreak defense and content generation success rates substantially across multiple models.
NeWTral is a non-linear weight translation framework using MoE routing that reduces average attack success rate from 70% to 13% on unsafe domain adapters across Llama, Mistral, Qwen, and Gemma models up to 72B while retaining 90% knowledge fidelity.
