MaskForge: Structure-Aware Adaptive Attacks for Jailbreaking Diffusion Large Language Models

arXiv:2606. 04027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Diffusion large language models (dLLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising partially masked sequences under bidirectional context, exposing a safety surface distinct from autoregressive LLMs.
