Deep neural networks (DNNs) are vulnerable to backdoor attacks, where adversaries can maliciously trigger model misclassifications by implanting a hidden backdoor during model training. This paper proposes a simple yet effective input-level backdoor detection (dubbed IBD-PSC) as a `firewall' to filter out malicious testing images. Our method is motivated by an intriguing phenomenon, i.e., parameter-oriented scaling consistency (PSC), where the prediction confidences of poisoned samples are significantly more consistent than those of benign ones when amplifying model parameters. In particular, we provide theoretical analysis to safeguard the foundations of the PSC phenomenon. We also design an adaptive method to select BN layers to scale up for effective detection. Extensive experiments are conducted on benchmark datasets, verifying the effectiveness and efficiency of our IBD-PSC method and its resistance to adaptive attacks.

Diffusion Models are vulnerable to backdoor attacks, where malicious attackers inject backdoors by poisoning some parts of the training samples during the training stage. This poses a serious threat to the downstream users, who query the diffusion models through the API or directly download them from the internet. To mitigate the threat of backdoor attacks, there have been a plethora of investigations on backdoor detections. However, none of them designed a specialized backdoor detection method for diffusion models, rendering the area much under-explored. Moreover, these prior methods mainly focus on the traditional neural networks in the classification task, which cannot be adapted to the backdoor detections on the generative task easily. Additionally, most of the prior methods require white-box access to model weights and architectures, or the probability logits as additional information, which are not always practical. In this paper, we propose a Unified Framework for Input-level backdoor Detection (UFID) on the diffusion models, which is motivated by observations in the diffusion models and further validated with a theoretical causality analysis. Extensive experiments across different datasets on both conditional and unconditional diffusion models show that our method achieves a superb performance on detection effectiveness and run-time efficiency.
