SciHazard: A Benchmark for Measuring Scientific Safety Risks with Decomposed Harm Scoring
Large language models (LLMs) increasingly support science, but they can also convert hazardous scientific knowledge into actionable misuse guidance. Existing benchmarks often rely on templated queries disconnected from real-world hazards, and employ LLM-as-a-Judge paradigms without domain grounding. To address this, we introduce SciHazard, a real-world-grounded benchmark for scientific risks and a dataset agnostic evaluation framework for measuring harmfulness. SciHazard contains 2400 hazardous questions and 600 oversafety questions across 12 disciplines, with both queries grounded in regulated entities and documented failure scenarios. To compute \textsc{DeHarm-Score} , we develop a decomposed evaluating procedure that combines query hazard severity, refusal behavior, and response-level risk. For non-refused responses, it further decomposes response-level harm into \textsc{Executability}, quantified via dynamic checklists with importance weighting, and \textsc{Net-new risk}, assessed through retrieval-augmented claim extraction and synthesis-barrier verification. An expert-validation study shows that \textsc{DeHarm-Score} improves agreement with expert annotations by 90.17\% over the strongest baseline. We benchmark 31 frontier LLMs and deep research agents in an extensive scientific safety evaluation. Notably, deep research agents yield 32.3\% higher mean \textsc{DeHarm-Score} than standard LLMs, exposing autonomous agents as a critical blind spot in current safety defenses. Code and dataset are available at https://anonymous.4open.science/r/DeharmScore-7B55.
DeepSight: An All-in-One LM Safety Toolkit
As the development of Large Models (LMs) progresses rapidly, their safety is also a priority. In current Large Language Models (LLMs) and Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) safety workflow, evaluation, diagnosis, and alignment are often handled by separate tools. Specifically, safety evaluation can only locate external behavioral risks but cannot figure out internal root causes. Meanwhile, safety diagnosis often drifts from concrete risk scenarios and remains at the explainable level. In this way, safety alignment lack dedicated explanations of changes in internal mechanisms, potentially degrading general capabilities. To systematically address these issues, we propose an open-source project, namely DeepSight, to practice a new safety evaluation-diagnosis integrated paradigm. DeepSight is low-cost, reproducible, efficient, and highly scalable large-scale model safety evaluation project consisting of a evaluation toolkit DeepSafe and a diagnosis toolkit DeepScan. By unifying task and data protocols, we build a connection between the two stages and transform safety evaluation from black-box to white-box insight. Besides, DeepSight is the first open source toolkit that support the frontier AI risk evaluation and joint safety evaluation and diagnosis.
