arXiv:2607. 11151v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Safety evaluation of large language models (LLMs) relies largely on single-turn attack datasets and single-judge scoring, underestimating risk from adaptive multi-turn adversaries and reporting a single success rate that does not separate partially actionable outputs from those carrying complete operational detail.

EvoFlint is an evolutionary atlas that maps multi‑turn vulnerabilities in large language models by treating attack discovery as a search problem rather than a generation task. It uses evolutionary quality‑diversity search to evolve phased conversation plans, employing Pareto fitness for success rate and severity, novelty search for diversity, and a generation‑level memory to incorporate model insights. The resulting risk‑indexed archive, tested on HarmBench, shows high attack success rates across models such as Claude Sonnet, GPT‑5, and Qwen3, revealing which harm categories each model’s safety training covers or misses.

The paper introduces ADVERSA, an automated red‑teaming framework that evaluates large language model safety over multiple turns by tracking continuous compliance trajectories instead of binary jailbreak outcomes. Using a fine‑tuned 70B attacker model and a structured 5‑point rubric, the authors conduct controlled experiments on three frontier victim models, measuring guardrail degradation and judge reliability through a triple‑judge consensus. Results show a 26.7% jailbreak rate with most breaches occurring early, and the study documents inter‑judge agreement, attacker drift, and attacker refusals as key factors affecting safety assessment.

RedDarwin is an agentic framework that evolves jailbreak skills by treating reusable attack mechanisms as modular skills rather than fixed prompts. It starts with 47 base skills and autonomously revises, composes, and selects them using feedback from target models, producing 65 evolved skills that improve 44 of the original attacks. The evolved skills raise the mean attack success rate on AdvBench from 18.8% to 47.3% and achieve high success on unseen frontier LLMs, including 100% ASR on GPT‑5.6‑Sol with only ten queries.
