Safer Content or Firmer Refusals? A Hybrid Perturbation Defense for Alignment under Harmful Fine-tuning

This work proposes VaccineBooster, a single alignment procedure that combines embedding perturbation and weight-level gradient attenuation within each training step, and indicates a trade-off: embedding perturbation primarily reduces flagged harmful content, whereas gradient attenuation primarily preserves explicit ref...

Does the Unsafe Gradient Survive a Conversation? On the Fragility of Gradient-Based Jailbreak Detection in Multi-Turn Dialogue

These findings show that gradient-based signals can support multi-turn jailbreak detection, but reliable deployment requires calibration on realistic benign conversations, short-window scoring, length-aware thresholds, and evaluation across attack types and model architectures.

Beware What You Autocomplete: Forensic Attribution of Backdoored Code Completions

Extensive evaluations across three representative vulnerability cases and ten backdoor attacks, along with sixteen competitive baselines, demonstrate that CodeTracer consistently achieves high forensic accuracy, low false identification rates, and strong robustness against adaptive attacks.

NeuronGuard: Robust LLM Safety Alignment via Ablation-Aware Safety Signal Redistribution

A fine-tuning-stage defense that simultaneously hardens LLMs against both attack classes by redistributing safety signals across a broader set of neurons, and provides a formal guarantee that NeuronGuard strictly reduces the attack success rate (ASR) upper bound.

Who Broke the System? Failure Localization in LLM-Based Multi-Agent Systems

Experimental results show that AgentLocate consistently outperforms existing failure localization methods in identifying both responsible agents and failure steps, while remaining efficient in terms of token usage and running time.
