Excerpt

arXiv:2609.38899v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Video Multimodal Large Language Models (Video-MLLMs) support reasoning over video inputs, yet remain vulnerable to jailbreak attacks that elicit policy-violating responses. Existing video jailbreaks primarily manipulate how harmful queries are visually presented, thereby treating video merely as a carrier. Consequently, the surrounding video scenario remains unexplored as a contextual attack surface. In this paper, we show that the same harmful q
