Hush! Protecting Secrets during Model Training: an Indistinguishability Approach

We consider the problem of secret protection, in which a business or organization wishes to train a model on their own data, while attempting to not leak secrets potentially contained in that data via the model. The standard method for training models to avoid memorization of secret information i...

Differential Privacy Analysis of Decentralized Gossip Averaging under Varying Threat Models

Fully decentralized training of machine learning models offers significant advantages in scalability, robustness, and fault tolerance. However, achieving differential privacy DP in such settings is challenging due to the absence of a central aggregator and varying trust assumptions among nodes. I...

Parallel Kac'S Walk Generates PRU

Ma and Huang recently proved that the PFC construction, introduced by Metger, Poremba, Sinha and Yuen MPSY24, gives an adaptive-secure pseudorandom unitary family PRU. Their proof developed a new path recording technique MH24. In this work, we show that a linear number of sequential repetitions o...

CVE-2024-12496

The Linear plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's 'linearblockbuycommissions' shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 2.7.12 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for...

CVE-2023-26489

wasmtime is a fast and secure runtime for WebAssembly. In affected versions wasmtime's code generator, Cranelift, has a bug on x8664 targets where address-mode computation mistakenly would calculate a 35-bit effective address instead of WebAssembly's defined 33-bit effective address. This bug mea...

CVE-2022-46381

Certain Linear eMerge E3-Series devices are vulnerable to XSS via the type parameter e.g., to the badging/badgetemplatev0.php component. This affects 0.32-08f, 0.32-07p, 0.32-07e, 0.32-09c, 0.32-09b, 0.32-09a, and 0.32-08e...

Adaptively Secure Distributed Broadcast Encryption with Linear-Size Public Parameters

Distributed broadcast encryption DBE is a variant of broadcast encryption BE that can efficiently transmit a message to a subset of users, in which users independently generate user private keys and user public keys instead of a central trusted authority generating user keys. In this paper, we...

An Inversion Theorem for Buffered Linear Toeplitz (BLT) Matrices and Applications to Streaming Differential Privacy

Buffered Linear Toeplitz BLT matrices are a family of parameterized lower-triangular matrices that play an important role in streaming differential privacy with correlated noise. Our main result is a BLT inversion theorem: the inverse of a BLT matrix is itself a BLT matrix with different...

Bipartite Randomized Response Mechanism for Local Differential Privacy

With the increasing importance of data privacy, Local Differential Privacy LDP has recently become a strong measure of privacy for protecting each user's privacy from data analysts without relying on a trusted third party. In many cases, both data providers and data analysts hope to maximize the...
