An Efficient and Modular Framework for Targeted Harm Mitigation in LLMS

The paper introduces a modular correction framework for large language models that uses Activated LoRA adapters and a context-aware routing mechanism to mitigate harmful outputs. By allowing expert adapters to activate mid-sequence without invalidating the KV cache, the system achieves low-latency, targeted correction during generation. Experiments show improved alignment on safety benchmarks while maintaining task performance, presenting a lightweight, scalable approach to safer LLM deployments.

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.
