XGBoost security classifiers, initially appearing robust against gradient attacks with a 0.98 score, were found to be vulnerable to score-based methods, causing their robustness to drop to 0.36. Furthermore, SHAP explanations for these classifiers were observed to break down even when predictions remained intact. AI
