PHANTOM: A Large-Scale Dataset of Multimodal Adversarial Attacks for Vision-Language Models

Simone Gallivanone, Hossein Khodadadi, Mauro Dore +2

We introduce a large-scale, open-source dataset of pre-generated adversarial attacks for vision-language models (VLMs). The dataset is designed to be diverse, representative, and p…

A Red-Team Study of Anthropic Fable 5 & Opus 4.8 Models

Nicola Franco

We evaluate the adversarial robustness of three frontier large language models (LLMs) developed by Anthropic, Opus 4.8, Fable 5 and its successor Fable 5.1, against four families o…
