Researchers have developed a new transferable attack method called AIR (Additive Identity attack based on a Relighting function) to bypass face swapping (FS) models. This method uses reillumination and additive perturbations to mislead identity extraction modules in subject-agnostic FS models. AIR extends the attack space, allowing for stronger yet visually natural adversarial examples, and has demonstrated superior performance in both attack success rate and image quality compared to existing methods across various GAN and diffusion-based FS models.
