I think R’ Nachum Eisenstein claimed that the gerus is invalid if the ger believed in an ancient universe (one that is millions of years old rather than 5k.) Since R’ Eisenstein was close to R’ Elyashiv, that may have led to the rumor that R’ Elyashiv has similar views (extending them to evolution and the like). But I’ve never seen evidence that R’ Elyashiv actually stated such views.
