- 用大模型生成保留恶意功能的特征扰动
- 攻击成功率高达97%,平均仅需3次尝试
- 适合研究防御机制或安全对抗的学者
安卓恶意软件规模与复杂性迅速增长,促使机器学习(ML)技术广泛用于高效、精准的恶意软件检测。尽管有效,这些模型仍易受特征级对抗攻击,即通过精心设计的扰动逃避检测,同时保持恶意功能。本文提出LAMLAD框架,利用大语言模型(LLM)的生成与推理能力,实现对基于ML的安卓恶意软件分类器的对抗攻击。LAMLAD采用双代理架构:一个由LLM驱动的操纵器生成真实且功能保持的特征扰动,另一个分析器引导扰动过程以实现成功逃逸。为提升效率与上下文感知能力,框架在LLM流程中集成检索增强生成(RAG)。聚焦于Drebin风格的特征表示,LAMLAD可对广泛部署的安卓恶意软件检测系统发起隐蔽且高置信度攻击。我们在三种代表性安卓恶意软件检测器上评估了LAMLAD,并与两种先进攻击方法对比。实验结果表明,其攻击成功率(ASR)最高达97%,平均每样本仅需3次尝试,充分展现其有效性、高效性与实际适应性。此外,我们提出一种基于对抗训练的防御策略,平均将ASR降低超过30%,显著提升模型对LAMLAD类攻击的鲁棒性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The rapid growth in both the scale and complexity of Android malware has driven the widespread adoption of machine learning (ML) techniques for scalable and accurate malware detection. Despite their effectiveness, these models remain vulnerable to adversarial attacks that introduce carefully crafted feature-level perturbations to evade detection while preserving malicious functionality. In this paper, we present LAMLAD, a novel adversarial attack framework that exploits the generative and reasoning capabilities of large language models (LLMs) to bypass ML-based Android malware classifiers. LAMLAD employs a dual-agent architecture composed of an LLM manipulator, which generates realistic and functionality-preserving feature perturbations, and an LLM analyzer, which guides the perturbation process toward successful evasion. To improve efficiency and contextual awareness, LAMLAD integrates retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) into the LLM pipeline. Focusing on Drebin-style feature representations, LAMLAD enables stealthy and high-confidence attacks against widely deployed Android malware detection systems. We evaluate LAMLAD against three representative ML-based Android malware detectors and compare its performance with two state-of-the-art adversarial attack methods. Experimental results demonstrate that LAMLAD achieves an attack success rate (ASR) of up to 97%, requiring on average only three attempts per adversarial sample, highlighting its effectiveness, efficiency, and adaptability in practical adversarial settings. Furthermore, we propose an adversarial training-based defense strategy that reduces the ASR by more than 30% on average, significantly enhancing model robustness against LAMLAD-style attacks.
