Capstone: 安全 Audit of an Open-Source LLM
專家22 分鐘閱讀更新於 2026-03-21
Conduct a comprehensive security audit of an open-source large language model, covering model weights integrity, safety alignment evaluation, supply chain verification, and adversarial robustness testing.
概覽
Organizations increasingly deploy open-source LLMs — models like Llama, Mistral, Qwen, and Gemma — for cost control, data sovereignty, or customization flexibility. But open-source does not mean audited. A model downloaded from Hugging Face may carry serialization exploits in its weight files, exhibit 安全 對齊 gaps that closed-source models have addressed, leak 訓練資料 through memorization, or contain backdoors inserted during the 訓練 process. The 2024 discovery of malicious pickle-based payloads in Hugging Face model uploads demonstrated that 供應鏈 attacks on open-source models are not theoretical.
This capstone project tasks you with conducting a full 安全 audit of an open-source LLM, following a methodology that covers four audit domains: 供應鏈 integrity (where did this model come from and can we trust it?), 安全 對齊 (does it refuse harmful requests appropriately?), 對抗性 robustness (can its 安全 measures be bypassed?), and information leakage (does it memorize and regurgitate sensitive 訓練資料?). The audit produces a professional report with risk-ranked findings and remediation recommendations.
The methodology is model-agnostic — you can apply it to any open-source model — but the 實作 examples target the Llama and Mistral model families as representative cases. The tools used are industry-standard: Garak for automated 漏洞 scanning, Promptfoo for structured 評估, and custom Python scripts for 供應鏈 and memorization analysis.
Project Requirements
Audit Scope
The audit covers four domains, each with specific 測試 categories:
| Domain | 測試 Categories | Tools |
|---|---|---|
| Supply Chain Integrity | Weight file integrity, serialization 安全, provenance verification, dependency audit, license compliance | Custom scripts, Picklescan, SBOM generators |
| 安全 Alignment | Harmful content refusal, bias 評估, instruction compliance, 系統提示詞 adherence | Promptfoo, custom 評估 harness |
| 對抗性 Robustness | 越獄 resistance, 提示詞注入, encoding attacks, multi-turn manipulation, 上下文視窗 利用 | Garak, custom attack scripts |
| Information Leakage | 訓練資料 extraction, memorization probing, PII 偵測 in outputs, 系統提示詞 leakage | Custom extraction scripts, membership 推論 |
Deliverables
- Audit Report — Professional PDF/HTML report with executive summary, methodology, findings, risk rankings, and remediation recommendations.
- Finding 資料庫 — Structured JSON file containing all findings with reproduction steps and evidence.
- 測試 Artifacts — All 測試 scripts, prompts, and results in a reproducible format.
- Risk Matrix — Visual risk matrix mapping findings to likelihood and impact.
實作 Guide
Phase 1: Supply Chain Integrity Verification
Begin the audit by verifying 模型's provenance and the integrity of its artifacts before loading it for any 評估.

}, indent=2)測試 Your 實作
-
供應鏈 tests — Create a mock model directory with both safe (safetensors) and unsafe (pickle) files. Verify the auditor correctly flags the dangerous formats and produces actionable findings.
-
安全 對齊 tests — Run the 安全 suite against a known-safe model (e.g., a heavily filtered API endpoint) and verify high pass rates. Then run against an unfiltered model and verify it correctly detects failures.
-
對抗性 tests — Verify the attack suite executes without errors against a local model endpoint. Check that the success/failure classification produces reasonable results by 測試 with known-vulnerable and known-robust models.
-
Report generation — Generate a full report from combined findings and verify the JSON 輸出 is valid and the executive summary accurately reflects the finding distribution.
