VENOM: Text-driven Unrestricted Adversarial Example Generation with Diffusion Models

Summary

The paper introduces VENOM, a text-driven framework for generating high-quality unrestricted adversarial examples using diffusion models. VENOM unifies image content generation and adversarial synthesis into a single reverse diffusion process, enhancing both attack success rate and image quality. The framework incorporates an adaptive adversarial guidance strategy with momentum to ensure the generated adversarial examples align with the distribution of natural images.
