Title: Adversarial Attacks on Multimodal Large Language Models: A Comprehensive Survey

Abstract:
arXiv:2603.27918v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multimodal large language models (MLLMs) integrate information from multiple modalities such as text, images, audio, and video, enabling complex capabilities such as visual question answering and audio translation. While powerful, this increased expressiveness introduces new and amplified vulnerabilities to adversarial manipulation. This survey provides a comprehensive and systematic analysis of adversarial threats to MLLMs, moving beyond enumera
