The paper reports a privacy breach in a two-node split‑LLM training system where the returned gradient reveals which data rows were real, despite the system passing standard privacy checks. By exploiting the fact that decoy rows produce zero gradients, an attacker can identify real rows with 100% accuracy across multiple runs. The authors demonstrate that adding gradient clipping and noise can mitigate the leak, but the system remains vulnerable to several untested attack vectors.

The paper introduces PAC‑Private Autoregressive Generation, a method that calibrates noise based on ensemble disagreement across overlapping ‘worlds’ of a private corpus, thereby extending PAC privacy from classification to text generation. By training adapters on a frozen public model and using posterior‑weighted disagreement to add noise only when predictions vary, the approach achieves strong privacy guarantees while preserving most of the fine‑tuning benefit. Experiments on WikiText‑103 with GPT‑2‑small show 74 % of the fine‑tuning gain retained with a per‑token budget of 2⁻³², and membership‑inference success bounded to 51.08 % after one million tokens, outperforming PMixED under matched conditions.
The paper introduces FGLGuard, a privacy‑preserving federated graph learning framework that trains a graph attention detector on each operator’s own multi‑agent system (MAS) episode graphs, sharing only model updates. By combining a proximal local objective, domain‑balanced aggregation, threshold calibration, and guarded rewrite mechanisms, FGLGuard adapts to non‑IID data across organizations and outperforms centralized and local‑only baselines on Agent‑SafetyBench, R‑Judge, and AgentDojo. The method achieves significant reductions in attack success rates—up to 43% on AgentDojo—without compromising utility, API cost, or model capability.
