1. **[Catastrophic Jailbreak of Open-source LLMs via Exploiting Generation](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/huang-2023-catastrophic-jailbreak-open-source-llms/)** *(2023 · 169 citations)* Safety tuning of open-source LLMs is usually checked under one fixed decoding setup. For example, LLaMA2 was assessed with top-p 0.9, temperature 0.1 and a system prompt. The authors argue that this narrow testing hides serious weaknesses. They introduce the generation exploitation attack, which changes no input…
