arXiv:2607. 08659v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have shown considerable success in learning from graph-structured data, but their use in privacy-sensitive areas remains difficult because graph structure can leak sensitive link information.

The paper evaluates privacy risks in graph neural networks enhanced by large language models (LLMs). Using a five‑stage framework, the authors test six real‑world text‑attributed graph datasets with 42 model configurations and six privacy attack methods across link, label, and membership inference threats. Results show that LLM‑enhanced GNNs are more vulnerable than shallow baselines, with semantic enrichment amplifying exploitable signals, and that differential privacy can reduce risk but at a significant cost to utility.

Machine unlearning aims to eliminate the influence of specific data from trained models to safeguard privacy. However, this presents a significant challenge in the context of continual learning (CL), where models update sequentially on dynamic datasets.
MUGEN is a framework that generates unlearnable graph examples capable of protecting multiple downstream tasks—node classification, graph classification, and link prediction—simultaneously. It achieves this by perturbing a single clean dataset with a shared GNN encoder and task‑specific heads, guided by a Task‑Aligned Separability Objective (TASO) and a Type‑Adaptive Perturbation (TAP) that handles both discrete and continuous node attributes. Experiments on five benchmarks, four GNN backbones, and three learning paradigms show that MUGEN’s perturbations transfer across models and remain effective even under adversarial training and data augmentation.
