Model-specific adversarial attacks have been extensively studied. We study a different failure mode: naturally occurring statistical signals in vision data that can behave like backdoor-like triggers without being maliciously inserted.

arXiv:2511. 07210v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Clean-image backdoor attacks, which use only label manipulation in training datasets to compromise deep neural networks, pose a significant threat to security-critical applications.

arXiv:2606. 15308v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While multimodal large language models (MLLMs) have shown strong visual reasoning abilities, serving a large model for every query is computationally expensive.

arXiv:2512. 05518v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) play a critical role in the democratization of AI, yet their "open" nature introduces more avenues for malicious actors to misuse them for harmful purposes.
