arXiv:2607. 11706v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern LLM-driven text-to-speech (TTS) and voice conversion (VC) systems produce synthetic speech that differs from the generators represented in many legacy spoofing benchmarks.
arXiv:2606. 16837v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Spoofed speech detection is increasingly challenged by realistic synthesis, voice conversion, and replay attacks, with cross-dataset generalization remaining a major limitation.
The paper investigates whether the Voxtral audio‑language model can detect speech spoofing. It shows that without task‑specific adaptation, the model’s language‑model layers prioritize semantic content, making spoof‑discriminative acoustic cues less separable. By applying lightweight weight‑decomposed low‑rank adaptation (DoRA), the authors create Spooftral, which achieves an equal error rate of 4.25% on the ASVspoof5 evaluation set.
arXiv:2607. 14753v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in text-to-speech and voice cloning make high-quality spoofing inexpensive and scalable, threatening voice authentication systems, especially automatic speaker verification (ASV).
arXiv:2608.27783v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speech language models (speech LLMs) can generate plausible outputs from audio that contains no usable speech evidence. We study this failure...
arXiv:2603. 14033v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Audio anti-spoofing systems are typically trained to assign one authenticity label to an entire speech utterance.
arXiv:2607. 03150v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While deepfake audio detection systems achieve high performance in controlled benchmarks, their reliability often diminishes in the wild.
arXiv:2607. 28351v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speech deepfake detection has expanded in scope with increasingly heterogeneous spoofing mechanisms, including speech synthesis, voice conversion, vocoder reconstruction, and neural-codec resynthesis.
arXiv:2606. 29031v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In regulated domains such as banking and healthcare, where privacy constraints make real speech costly to collect and retain, synthetic speech from modern text-to-speech (TTS) is an appealing alternative for training automatic speech recognition (ASR) without exposing sensitive customer recordings.
arXiv:2608. 09593v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent advances in speech synthesis and audio generation have made high-fidelity acoustic forgery low-cost and difficult to attribute, enabling a realistic attack scenario in which speech and background audio are independently manipulated over otherwise authentic video.
The paper introduces the Speech-Unsupported Rejection Evaluation Challenge (SURE‑Challenge), a benchmark designed to test whether speech‑LLMs should accept or reject audio inputs before generating answers. Using LibriSpeech‑derived transcriptions paired with first‑word question answering, the authors evaluate various noise and silence conditions, and compare a simple energy‑plus‑Whisper‑score rule against a Qwen2‑Audio front‑end. On a 474‑row test set, the rule rejects 196 of 204 unsupported inputs while preserving accuracy on supported data, revealing a pre‑generation error mode that answer‑only scoring misses.
The paper introduces an adaptive jailbreak attack framework that evaluates both cascaded pipelines and end‑to‑end large audio‑language models (LALMs) under a unified setting. It employs a feedback‑guided mutation engine to automatically generate and refine jailbreak candidates across textual prompts and audio perturbations, thereby broadening attack diversity. Experiments on six audio‑based systems show that both paradigms remain highly vulnerable, with the framework achieving higher attack success rates than existing methods.
arXiv:2607. 21820v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio deepfake detectors are trained to distinguish genuine speech from synthetic speech and often perform well on standard benchmarks.
