MADA-Attack: Transferable Multi-modal Attention Distraction Adversarial Attack against Vision Language Models

ICML 2026poster

Vision Language Models (VLMs) achieve strong performance across multi-modal tasks but remain vulnerable to universal adversarial perturbations (UAPs). Existing UAP methods mainly operate on the visual modality, overlooking structured textual semantics and cross-modal interactions, which limits their…

CAMH: Advancing Model Hijacking Attack in Machine Learning

AAAI 2025technical

In the burgeoning domain of machine learning, the reliance on third-party services for model training and the adoption of pre-trained models have surged. However, this reliance introduces vulnerabilities to model hijacking attacks, where adversaries manipulate models to perform unintended tasks, lea…

Enhancing Adversarial Transferability with Adversarial Weight Tuning

AAAI 2025technical

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to adversarial examples (AEs) that mislead the model while appearing benign to human observers. A critical concern is the transferability of AEs, which enables black-box attacks without direct access to the target model. However, many previous attacks have…

Integer Is Enough: When Vertical Federated Learning Meets Rounding

AAAI 2024technical

Vertical Federated Learning (VFL) is a solution increasingly used by companies with the same user group but differing features, enabling them to collaboratively train a machine learning model. VFL ensures that clients exchange intermediate results extracted by their local models, without sharing ra…

Protecting Object Detection Models from Model Extraction Attack via Feature Space Coverage

IJCAI 2024poster

The model extraction attack is an attack pattern aimed at stealing well-trained machine learning models' functionality or privacy information. With the gradual popularization of AI-related technologies in daily life, various well-trained models are being deployed. As a result, these models are consi…
