| Challenge: | Recent studies focus on single-modality threats, but this approach fails to address cross-modal safety alignment. |
| Approach: | They propose a safety alignment challenge to evaluate cross-modality safety alignment . they propose 'Safe Inputs but Unsafe Output' to consider safety of single modalities . |
| Outcome: | The proposed safety alignment challenge examines cases where modalities are safe independently but could lead to unsafe outputs when combined. |

| Challenge: | integrating new modalities into large language models creates new attack surface . existing safety training techniques like SFT and RLHF are not feasible in multi-modal settings . |
| Approach: | They explore whether unlearning in the textual domain can be effective for cross-modality safety alignment. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach reduces the Attack Success Rate (ASR) to less than 8% and preserves the utility. |
