The approach aims to improve security detection systems' ability to identify these sneaky attacks that are hard to catch because they blend in with normal system activity.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["security","research"],"sourceUrl":"https://dl.acm.org/doi/abs/10.1145/3807450?ai=2p1&mi=hx017f&af=R","publishedAt":"2026-05-09T06:00:44.386Z","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":"moderate","impactType":["integrity"],"aiComponentTargeted":null,"llmSpecific":false,"classifierConfidence":0.72,"researchCategory":"peer_reviewed","atlasIds":null}}
