| Challenge: | Recent advances in multimodal reasoning may pose new safety risks . evaluators neglect reasoningbased safety, where harm emerges only through MLLMs . |
| Approach: | They introduce a benchmark for multi-image reasoning safety that includes 2,676 instances . they find that models with more advanced multi- image reasoning are more vulnerable . |
| Outcome: | The proposed benchmark consists of 2,676 instances covering 9 multi-image relations . the results show that models with more advanced multi- image reasoning are more vulnerable . |
