Model merging composes specialized capabilities into a single LLM by aggregating task vectors sourced from unverified public platforms, exposing a critical supply-chain attack surface: Because any malicious behavior can be encoded into a task vector, and merging grants third-party vectors direct write access to model weights, an attacker-provided task vector can enable or amplify diverse downstream threats. Prior work studies only backdoor attacks against model merging for classifiers using static arithmetic heuristics, which fail to effectively handle diverse attacks on generative LLMs for three reasons.
arXiv:2607. 16414v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial intelligence (AI) systems are now ubiquitous across domains such as security, finance, healthcare, consumer technology, and large-scale cloud services, where they process massive volumes of data and make consequential decisions daily.
