• Abstract: In critical operations where aerial imagery plays an essential role, the integrity and trustworthiness of data are paramount. The emergence of adversarial attacks, particularly those that exploit control over labels or employ physically feasible trojans, threatens to erode that trust, making the analysis and mitigation of these attacks a matter of urgency. We demonstrate how adversarial attacks can degrade confidence in geospatial systems, specifically focusing on scenarios where the attacker's control over labels is restricted and the use of realistic threat vectors. Proposing and evaluating several innovative attack methodologies, including those tailored to overhead images, we empirically show their threat to remote sensing systems using high-quality SpaceNet datasets. Our experimentation reflects the unique challenges posed by aerial imagery, and these preliminary results not only reveal the potential risks but also highlight the non-trivial nature of the problem compared to recent works.

  Collaborative perception, which greatly enhances the sensing capability of connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs), brings forth potential security risks. We propose various real-time data fabrication attacks in which the attacker delivers crafted malicious data to victims in order to perturb their perception results. Our attacks demonstrate a high success rate of over 86% on high-fidelity simulated scenarios and are realizable in real-world experiments. We present a systematic anomaly detection approach that enables benign vehicles to jointly reveal malicious fabrication.

  We propose adversarial self-supervision UDA (or ASSUDA) that maximizes the agreement between clean images and their adversarial examples by a contrastive loss in the output space. This paper is rooted in two observations: (i) the robustness of UDA methods in semantic segmentation remains unexplored, which pose a security concern in this field; and (ii) although commonly used self-supervision (e.g., rotation and jigsaw) benefits image tasks such as classification and recognition, they fail to provide the critical supervision signals that could learn discriminative representation for segmentation tasks.
