EvoHarmBench: Breaking Content Moderation with Iterative Human-Like Evasion

EvoHarmBench is a dynamic adversarial evaluation framework that simulates how users iteratively modify harmful content to evade moderation. It uses an optimization loop that evolves evasion strategies at the semantic-cluster level while maintaining human readability, and tests 229 semantic sub-clusters across five violation categories derived from 5,002 real-world adversarial samples. The study shows that even state‑of‑the‑art LLM‑based moderators can be bypassed with an 80.3% success rate after twelve iterations, highlighting significant vulnerabilities in current systems.
