测试时强化学习会放大模型原有行为，可能让安全模型变更安全，也可能让不安全模型变得更糟。

Test-time training (TTT) has recently emerged as a promising method to improve the reasoning abilities of large language models (LLMs), in which the model directly learns from test data without access to labels. However, this reliance on test data also makes TTT methods vulnerable to harmful prompt injections. In this paper, we investigate safety vulnerabilities of TTT methods, where we study a representative self-consistency-based test-time learning method: test-time reinforcement learning (TTRL), a recent TTT method that improves LLM reasoning by rewarding self-consistency using majority vote as a reward signal. We show that harmful prompt injection during TTRL amplifies the model's existing behaviors, i.e., safety amplification when the base model is relatively safe, and harmfulness amplification when it is vulnerable to the injected data. In both cases, there is a decline in reasoning ability, which we refer to as the reasoning tax. We also show that TTT methods such as TTRL can be exploited adversarially using specially designed "HarmInject" prompts to force the model to answer jailbreak and reasoning queries together, resulting in stronger harmfulness amplification. Overall, our results highlight that TTT methods that enhance LLM reasoning by promoting self-consistency can lead to amplification behaviors and reasoning degradation, highlighting the need for safer TTT methods.
