Safety-critical scenario generation is crucial for evaluating autonomous driving systems. However, existing approaches often struggle to balance three conflicting objectives: adversarial criticality, physical feasibility, and behavioral realism. To bridge this gap, we propose SaFeR: safety-critical scenario generation for autonomous driving test via feasibility-constrained token resampling. We first formulate traffic generation as a discrete next token prediction problem, employing a Transformer-based model as a realism prior to capture naturalistic driving distributions. To capture complex interactions while effectively mitigating attention noise, we propose a novel differential attention mechanism within the realism prior. Building on this prior, SaFeR implements a novel resampling strategy that induces adversarial behaviors within a high-probability trust region to maintain naturalism, while enforcing a feasibility constraint derived from the Largest Feasible Region (LFR). By approximating the LFR via offline reinforcement learning, SaFeR effectively prevents the generation of theoretically inevitable collisions. Closed-loop experiments on the Waymo Open Motion Dataset and nuPlan demonstrate that SaFeR significantly outperforms state-of-the-art baselines, achieving a higher solution rate and superior kinematic realism while maintaining strong adversarial effectiveness.
