A new research paper proposes an auditing framework to test prompt injection defenses in large language models before they are released to users. The framework uses intermediate checkpoints from the model's fine-tuning process as stepping stones for optimization-based attacks, revealing vulnerabilities that standard evaluations might miss. By employing strong adversaries like GCG and BEAST, the research demonstrated that current defenses can be significantly less robust than previously thought, with attack success rates increasing from near zero to as high as 96%. The authors advocate for this pre-deployment auditing to shorten feedback loops and prevent real-world harm. AI
