Unlike previous attacks that required unrealistic access to training data or labeled examples, KTA only needs auxiliary graphs from unrelated domains to infer the private labels, making it a more practical threat to real-world GVFL systems.","solution":"N/A -- no mitigation discussed in source.","labels":["security","research"],"sourceUrl":"http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/11523557","publishedAt":"2026-05-18T13:18:18.000Z","cveId":null,"cweIds":null,"cvssScore":null,"cvssSeverity":null,"severity":"info","attackType":["data_extraction","membership_inference"],"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":"2026-05-18T13:18:18.000Z","capecIds":null,"crossRefCount":0,"attackSophistication":"advanced","impactType":["confidentiality"],"aiComponentTargeted":"training_data","llmSpecific":false,"classifierConfidence":0.85,"researchCategory":"peer_reviewed","atlasIds":null}}
