Quantized Delta Weight Is Safety Keeper
Yule Liu, Zhen Sun, Xinlei He, Xinyi Huang · 2024-11-29 · via cs.CR updates on arXiv.org

Recent advancements in fine-tuning proprietary language models enable customized applications across various domains but also introduce two major challenges: high resource demands and security risks. Regarding resource demands, recent work proposes novel partial compression, such as BitDelta, to quantize the delta weights between the fine-tuned model and base model. Regarding the security risks, user-defined fine-tuning can introduce security vulnerabilities, such as alignment issues, backdoor attacks, and hallucinations. However, most of the current efforts in security assessment focus on the full-precision or full-compression models, it is not well-discussed how the partial compression methods affect security concerns. To bridge this gap, we evaluate the robustness of delta-weight quantization against these security threats. In this paper, we uncover a "free lunch" phenomenon: partial compression can enhance model security against fine-tuning-based attacks with bearable utility loss. Using Llama-2-7b-chat as a case study, we show that, with under 10% utility degradation, the partial compression mitigates alignment-breaking risks by up to 66.17%, harmful backdoor vulnerabilities by 64.46%, and targeted output manipulation risks by up to 90.53%. We further apply LogitLens to visualize internal state transformations during forward passes, suggesting mechanisms for both security failure and recovery in standard versus compressed fine-tuning. This work offers new insights into selecting effective delta compression methods for secure, resource-efficient multi-tenant services.
