A systematic review of on-device AI inference security finds defenses are imbalanced, with roughly half focused on IP theft while one-third of attacks (adversarial examples) lack any associated defenses.
PoisonCap uses a new poison capability format to deliver strict use-after-free and initialization safety for CHERI systems with no fundamental overhead over Cornucopia baselines.
An automated static-analysis pipeline generates labeled structural units from virtualization-obfuscated binaries so LLMs can analyze them without exceeding token limits.
Current AI image watermark removal attacks replace the watermark with a different forensic signal, allowing independent detectors to distinguish processed outputs from clean images at over 98% true-positive rate under a 1% false-positive budget.
GRASP detects anomalies in system provenance graphs via self-supervised executable prediction from two-hop neighborhoods, outperforming prior PIDS on DARPA datasets by identifying all documented attacks where behaviors are learnable plus additional unlabeled suspicious activity.
Metaphors scaffold youth privacy reasoning and design, with relational metaphors potentially increasing disclosure by framing systems as loyal companions.
Pomegranate compartmentalizes commodity OS kernels via virtualization extensions, sentry functions, and EPT-enforced policies, achieving negligible overhead on a Linux network stack when compartment boundaries limit cross-talk.
Semia synthesizes Datalog representations of agent skills via constraint-guided loops to enable reachability queries for semantic risks, finding critical issues in over half of 13,728 real skills with 97.7% recall on expert-labeled samples.
BadStyle creates stealthy backdoors in LLMs by poisoning samples with imperceptible style triggers and using an auxiliary loss to stabilize payload injection, achieving high attack success rates across multiple models while evading defenses.
A differentially private pipeline using node-level DP summaries to fit ERGMs or SBMs, generate synthetic networks, and simulate SIS disease spread on ARTNet sexual contact data produces incidence, prevalence, and intervention effect sizes close to non-private versions.
PrivacyAkinator uses LLM-generated questions grounded in data-flow representations and a news-mined design space to help developers surface privacy decisions, yielding 47% more decisions identified in 73% less time than PRAM in a 24-person study.
ContentFuzz rewrites posts with LLM guidance from stance model confidence to flip machine labels without altering human intent, tested across four models and three datasets in two languages.
