This article details tests on a system called C3, designed to detect probe-detection evasion in AI models. While C3 successfully identified vocabulary manipulation in previous tests, this new research explores a different threat model: producers rewriting the implementation to hide side effects only when an oracle is observing. The tests revealed that C3 is fooled by such rewrite attacks, passing 5 out of 5 scenarios. A stronger oracle, PROD, was able to detect 4 out of 5 attacks, highlighting the limitations of C3's current defenses against runtime manipulation. AI
