Although deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved a great success in various computer vision tasks, it is recently found that they are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. In this paper, we focus on the so-called textit{backdoor attack}, which injects a backdoor trigger to a small portion of training data (also known as data poisoning) such that the trained DNN induces misclassification while facing examples with this trigger. To be specific, we carefully study the effect of both real and synthetic backdoor attacks on the internal response of vanilla and backdoored DNNs through the lens of Gard-CAM. Moreover, we show that the backdoor attack induces a significant bias in neuron activation in terms of the $ell_infty$ norm of an activation map compared to its $ell_1$ and $ell_2$ norm. Spurred by our results, we propose the textit{$ell_infty$-based neuron pruning} to remove the backdoor from the backdoored DNN. Experiments show that our method could effectively decrease the attack success rate, and also hold a high classification accuracy for clean images.

The paper develops a new adversarial attack against deep neural networks (DNN), based on applying bio-inspired design to moving physical objects. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to introduce physical attacks with a moving object. Instead of following the dominating attack strategy in the existing literature, i.e., to introduce minor perturbations to a digital input or a stationary physical object, we show two new successful attack strategies in this paper. We show by superimposing several patterns onto one physical object, a DNN becomes confused and picks one of the patterns to assign a class label. Our experiment with three flapping wing robots demonstrates the possibility of developing an adversarial camouflage to cause a targeted mistake by DNN. We also show certain motion can reduce the dependency among consecutive frames in a video and make an object detector blind, i.e., not able to detect an object exists in the video. Hence in a successful physical attack against DNN, targeted motion against the system should also be considered.
Speaker verification has been widely and successfully adopted in many mission-critical areas for user identification. The training of speaker verification requires a large amount of data, therefore users usually need to adopt third-party data ($e.g.$, data from the Internet or third-party data company). This raises the question of whether adopting untrusted third-party data can pose a security threat. In this paper, we demonstrate that it is possible to inject the hidden backdoor for infecting speaker verification models by poisoning the training data. Specifically, we design a clustering-based attack scheme where poisoned samples from different clusters will contain different triggers ($i.e.$, pre-defined utterances), based on our understanding of verification tasks. The infected models behave normally on benign samples, while attacker-specified unenrolled triggers will successfully pass the verification even if the attacker has no information about the enrolled speaker. We also demonstrate that existing backdoor attacks cannot be directly adopted in attacking speaker verification. Our approach not only provides a new perspective for designing novel attacks, but also serves as a strong baseline for improving the robustness of verification methods.

Recent research has confirmed the feasibility of backdoor attacks in deep reinforcement learning (RL) systems. However, the existing attacks require the ability to arbitrarily modify an agents observation, constraining the application scope to simple RL systems such as Atari games. In this paper, we migrate backdoor attacks to more complex RL systems involving multiple agents and explore the possibility of triggering the backdoor without directly manipulating the agents observation. As a proof of concept, we demonstrate that an adversary agent can trigger the backdoor of the victim agent with its own action in two-player competitive RL systems. We prototype and evaluate BACKDOORL in four competitive environments. The results show that when the backdoor is activated, the winning rate of the victim drops by 17% to 37% compared to when not activated.
In this work, we show how to jointly exploit adversarial perturbation and model poisoning vulnerabilities to practically launch a new stealthy attack, dubbed AdvTrojan. AdvTrojan is stealthy because it can be activated only when: 1) a carefully crafted adversarial perturbation is injected into the input examples during inference, and 2) a Trojan backdoor is implanted during the training process of the model. We leverage adversarial noise in the input space to move Trojan-infected examples across the model decision boundary, making it difficult to detect. The stealthiness behavior of AdvTrojan fools the users into accidentally trust the infected model as a robust classifier against adversarial examples. AdvTrojan can be implemented by only poisoning the training data similar to conventional Trojan backdoor attacks. Our thorough analysis and extensive experiments on several benchmark datasets show that AdvTrojan can bypass existing defenses with a success rate close to 100% in most of our experimental scenarios and can be extended to attack federated learning tasks as well.
Recent studies have shown that DNNs can be compromised by backdoor attacks crafted at training time. A backdoor attack installs a backdoor into the victim model by injecting a backdoor pattern into a small proportion of the training data. At test time, the victim model behaves normally on clean test data, yet consistently predicts a specific (likely incorrect) target class whenever the backdoor pattern is present in a test example. While existing backdoor attacks are effective, they are not stealthy. The modifications made on training data or labels are often suspicious and can be easily detected by simple data filtering or human inspection. In this paper, we present a new type of backdoor attack inspired by an important natural phenomenon: reflection. Using mathematical modeling of physical reflection models, we propose reflection backdoor (Refool) to plant reflections as backdoor into a victim model. We demonstrate on 3 computer vision tasks and 5 datasets that, Refool can attack state-of-the-art DNNs with high success rate, and is resistant to state-of-the-art backdoor defenses.
