Concealment of Intent: A Game-Theoretic Analysis

2025-05-27 · Xinbo Wu, Abhishek Umrawal, Lav R. Varshney

As large language models (LLMs) grow more capable, concerns about their safe deployment have also grown. Although alignment mechanisms have been introduced to deter misuse, they remain vulnerable to carefully designed adversarial prompts. In this work, we present a scalable attack strategy: intent-hiding adversarial prompting, which conceals malicious intent through the composition of skills. We develop a game-theoretic framework to model the interaction between such attacks and defense systems that apply both prompt and response filtering. Our analysis identifies equilibrium points and reveals structural advantages for the attacker. To counter these threats, we propose and analyze a defense mechanism tailored to intent-hiding attacks. Empirically, we validate the attack's effectiveness on multiple real-world LLMs across a range of malicious behaviors, demonstrating clear advantages over existing adversarial prompting techniques.

How Brittle is Agent Safety? Rethinking Agent Risk under Intent Concealment and Task Complexity

2025-11-11 · Zihan Ma, Dongsheng Zhu, Shudong Liu, Taolin Zhang 외 arxiv

Current safety evaluations for LLM-driven agents primarily focus on atomic harms, failing to address sophisticated threats where malicious intent is concealed or diluted within complex tasks. We address this gap with a t…

Conceal, Reconstruct, Jailbreak: Exploiting the Reconstruction-Concealment Tradeoff in MLLMs
