TIGA: Trajectory-Injected Generative Attack against Black-box AIGC Detectors

The paper introduces TIGA, a source‑image‑free, training‑free attack that injects adversarial properties into a diffusion model’s sampling trajectory to evade black‑box AIGC forensic detectors. TIGA aggregates gradients from white‑box surrogate detectors to create a transferable prior, then uses anisotropic directional search with finite‑difference queries to estimate and stabilize directions for the DDIM trajectory, applying frequency‑domain reshaping to reduce artifacts. Experiments demonstrate strong black‑box attack performance, transferability, and robustness to post‑processing while maintaining high perceptual quality.

Steering the Flow: Inverting Face Recognition Models via Gradient-Guided Flow Matching

Model Inversion Attacks (MIAs) aim to reconstruct representative training samples of target identities from face recognition models, exposing critical security vulnerabilities. Existing methods typically rely on indirect guidance or highly stochastic guidance, making it difficult to stably optimize generation trajectories toward target facial images.

SPARED: Reasoning-Based AI-Generated Image Detection via Adversarially Edited Data

arXiv:2608. 12876v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Detecting AI-generated images is only half the task: a deployed detector must also justify its verdict, yet existing detectors inherit three failure modes from their training data: real and fake images collected from different sources invite provenance shortcuts, supervised explanation corpora teach templated rationales, and a static forgery corpus leaves the decision boundary standing still while generators keep moving.

DEFUSE: Generalizable Backdoor Defense for Self-Supervised Encoders with Generative Priors

DEFUSE is a backdoor detection framework for self‑supervised encoders that uses a conditional diffusion generative model to estimate representation‑conditioned image likelihoods. By fine‑tuning a pretrained diffusion model, DEFUSE performs semantic reconstruction in a reference encoder’s representation space, enabling it to detect backdoors without needing uninfected data or precomputed pseudo‑labels. Experiments show that DEFUSE outperforms existing detectors on both visual SSL and vision‑language encoders, reducing reliance on prior knowledge of the victim model or attack strategy.
