Research & Papers

1. ICON: Intent-Context Coupling for Efficient Multi-Turn Jailbreak Attack

arXiv:2601.20903v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multi-turn jailbreak attacks have emerged as a critical threat to Large Language Models (LLMs), bypassing safety mechanisms by progressively constructing adversarial contexts from scratch and incrementally refining prompts. However, existing meth...

2. Untargeted Jailbreak Attack

arXiv:2510.02999v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing gradient-based jailbreak attacks on Large Language Models (LLMs) typically optimize adversarial suffixes to align the LLM output with predefined target responses. However, restricting the objective as inducing fixed targets inher...

3. Fair Graph Machine Learning under Adversarial Missingness Processes

arXiv:2311.01591v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art results in many relevant tasks where decisions might disproportionately impact specific communities. However, existing work on fair GNNs often assumes that either sensitive attributes ...

4. False Alarms, Real Damage: Adversarial Attacks Using LLM-based Models on Text-based Cyber Threat Intelligence Systems

arXiv:2507.06252v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) has emerged as a vital complementary approach that operates in the early phases of the cyber threat lifecycle. CTI involves collecting, processing, and analyzing threat data to provide a more accurate and r...

5. Guided Perturbation Sensitivity (GPS): Detecting Adversarial Text via Embedding Stability and Word Importance

arXiv:2508.11667v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Adversarial text attacks remain a persistent threat to transformer models, yet existing defenses are typically attack-specific or require costly model retraining, leaving a gap for attack-agnostic detection. We introduce Guided Perturbation Sen...

6. Adversarial Vulnerability Transcends Computational Paradigms: Feature Engineering Provides No Defense Against Neural Adversarial Transfer

arXiv:2601.21323v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep neural networks are vulnerable to adversarial examples--inputs with imperceptible perturbations causing misclassification. While adversarial transfer within neural networks is well-documented, whether classical ML pipelines using handcrafted f...

7. On the Adversarial Robustness of Learning-based Conformal Novelty Detection

arXiv:2510.00463v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper studies the adversarial robustness of conformal novelty detection. In particular, we focus on two powerful learning-based frameworks that come with finite-sample false discovery rate (FDR) control: one is AdaDetect (by Marandon...

8. OpenSec: Measuring Incident Response Agent Calibration Under Adversarial Evidence

arXiv:2601.21083v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As large language models improve, so do their offensive applications: frontier agents now generate working exploits for under $50 in compute (Heelan, 2026). Defensive incident response (IR) agents must keep pace, but existing benchmarks conflate ac...
