Multi2AV‑Safety is a new benchmark for evaluating safety in multimodal-to-audio‑video generation. It covers all 11 non‑singleton conditioning configurations (text, image, audio, video) and contains 11,024 attack instances. The benchmark reveals that safety guards often fail when harmful semantics arise from combinations of benign inputs or when explicit harmful cues are masked by benign multimodal context, highlighting a gap in compositional risk perception.

The paper introduces Uni-SafeBench, a safety benchmark designed to evaluate the holistic safety of Unified Multimodal Large Models (UMLMs) across six safety categories and seven task types. It also presents Uni-Judger, a framework that separates contextual safety from intrinsic safety to enable rigorous assessment. Evaluations reveal that current unified models do not consistently maintain the safety alignment of their underlying language models, and open‑source UMLMs perform significantly worse on safety than specialized multimodal models, especially in generation tasks.
