They introduce SceneSafetyBench, covering eight risk categories and nine white- and black-box MLLMs, and propose Scene-Grounded Attacks (SGA). SGA reaches an average attack success rate of 86.17% across nine target MLLMs, 8.55 percentage points above the strongest baseline.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["security","safety"],"sourceUrl":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2610.14094v1","publishedAt":"2026-10-08T18:15:44.000Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"info","attackType":["jailbreak"],"issueType":"research","affectedPackages":null,"affectedPackageNames":null,"affectedPackageRefs":null,"affectedVendors":[],"affectedVendorsRaw":["multimodal large language models (MLLMs)"],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-5-5","classifierPromptVersion":"v4","summaryPromptVersion":"v2","headline":null,"headlinePromptVersion":null,"cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":null,"epssScore":null,"epssCheckedAt":null,"kevDateAdded":null,"advisoryAliases":null,"affectedPackagesSource":null,"affectedPackagesCheckedAt":null,"patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":"2026-10-08T18:15:44.000Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"moderate","impactType":["safety"],"aiComponentTargeted":"model","llmSpecific":true,"classifierConfidence":0.93,"researchCategory":"preprint","atlasIds":["AML.T0054"]}}
