On the Robustness of Machine Unlearning for Vision-Language Models

2026-05-26 · Yujie Lin, Kaidi Jia, Jiayao Ma, Chengyi Yang, Jinsong Su arxiv

Vision-language models (VLMs) may memorize undesirable information from training data, motivating growing interest in machine unlearning. In this work, we present the first systematic survey and robustness analysis of VLM unlearning. We provide a comprehensive taxonomy and review of existing VLM unlearning methods, together with unified evaluations under multiple prompt settings. We then propose three attack paradigms to examine whether forgotten multimodal knowledge can be reactivated through contextual prompting or downstream retraining. Extensive experiments show that many existing methods remain vulnerable under these attacks, indicating that current approaches often hide rather than fully remove target knowledge. Our study provides new insights into the robustness and limitations of current VLM unlearning methods and highlights the need for more reliable multimodal unlearning strategies. Code is available at https://github.com/XMUDeepLIT/VLM-UnL-Attack.
