The paper introduces TempJail, a temporal jailbreak framework targeting image‑to‑video generation models. It exploits a newly identified vulnerability where unsafe semantics arise from the composition of frames over time, rather than from single‑frame violations. By decomposing malicious captions into visual conditions and temporal instructions, and by employing controlled latent perturbations and template rewriting, TempJail achieves a 23.3 % higher attack success rate than prior methods on several commercial models.

The paper introduces NarrativeAttack, a jailbreak framework that exploits unified multimodal models (UMMs) by embedding a malicious query within a self‑contained three‑act visual narrative. The attack uses the model’s own image generator to create setup and resolution images, hiding the malicious event as a hidden climax, and concludes with an image‑based guessing game that forces the model to select the relevant answer. Experiments demonstrate that NarrativeAttack outperforms previous methods, achieving up to 88.25% attack success rate on Gemini‑2.5‑Flash, revealing a significant safety vulnerability in UMMs.

Recent advancements in Image-to-Video (I2V) generation have transformed input images from simple appearance references into interactive control interfaces where visual cues such as arrows, sketches, and emojis orchestrate complex video dynamics with unprecedented controllability. However, these seemingly innocuous static cues can be interpreted by models as executable temporal instructions, unfolding into harmful actions in the generated videos.
