This paper proposes SMS, or Self-Supervised Model Seeding, which embeds user-specific identifiers into the model's internal representation to directly link users' actual data with the model, enabling better verification that genuine samples were truly unlearned.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["research","security"],"sourceUrl":"http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/11184497","publishedAt":"2025-09-29T13:25:31.000Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"info","attackType":[],"issueType":"research","affectedPackages":null,"affectedVendors":[],"affectedVendorsRaw":[],"classifierModel":"claude-haiku-4-5-20251001","classifierPromptVersion":"v3","cvssVector":null,"attackVector":null,"attackComplexity":null,"privilegesRequired":null,"userInteraction":null,"exploitMaturity":null,"epssScore":null,"patchAvailable":null,"disclosureDate":null,"capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"advanced","impactType":["integrity"],"aiComponentTargeted":"model","llmSpecific":false,"classifierConfidence":0.85,"researchCategory":"peer_reviewed","atlasIds":null}}
