Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2024

description: Request forgery attacks are among the oldest threats to Web applications, traditionally caused by server-side confused deputy vulnerabilities. However, recent advancements in client-side technologies have introduced more subtle variants of request forgery, where attackers exploit input validation flaws in client-side programs to hijack outgoing requests. We have little-to-no information about these client-side variants, their prevalence, impact, and countermeasures, and in this paper we undertake one of the first evaluations of the state of client-side request hijacking on the Web platform.

Starting with a comprehensive review of browser API capabilities and Web specifications, we systematize request hijacking vulnerabilities and the resulting attacks, identifying 10 distinct vulnerability variants, including seven new ones. Then, we use our systematization to design and implement Sheriff, a static-dynamic tool that detects vulnerable data flows from attacker-controllable inputs to request-sending instructions. We instantiate Sheriff on the top of the Tranco top 10K sites, performing, to our knowledge, the first investigation into the prevalence of request hijacking flaws in the wild. Our study uncovers that request hijacking vulnerabilities are ubiquitous, affecting 9.6% of the top 10K sites. We demonstrate the impact of these vulnerabilities by constructing 67 proof-of-concept exploits across 49 sites, making it possible to mount arbitrary code execution, information leakage, open redirections and CSRF also against popular websites like Microsoft Azure, Starz, Reddit, and Indeed. Finally, we review and evaluate the adoption and efficacy of existing countermeasures against client-side request hijacking attacks, including browser-based solutions like CSP, COOP and COEP, and input validation.
IReEn: Iterative Reverse-Engineering of Black-Box Functions via Neural Program Synthesis

description: In this work, we investigate the problem of revealing the functionality of a black-box agent. Notably, we are interested in the interpretable and formal description of the behavior of such an agent. Ideally, this description would take the form of a program written in a high-level language. This task is also known as reverse engineering and plays a pivotal role in software engineering, computer security, but also most recently in interpretability. In contrast to prior work, we do not rely on privileged information on the black box, but rather investigate the problem under a weaker assumption of having only access to inputs and outputs of the program. We approach this problem by iteratively refining a candidate set using a generative neural program synthesis approach until we arrive at a functionally equivalent program. We assess the performance of our approach on the Karel dataset. Our results show that the proposed approach outperforms the state-of-the-art on this challenge by finding an approximately functional equivalent program in 78% of cases -- even exceeding prior work that had privileged information on the black-box.

description: In neurons, macroautophagy/autophagy is a frequent and critical process. In the axon, autophagy begins in the axon terminal, where most nascent autophagosomes form. After formation, autophagosomes must initiate transport to exit the axon terminal and move toward the cell body via retrograde transport. During retrograde transport these autophagosomes mature through repetitive fusion events. Complete lysosomal cargo degradation occurs largely in the cell body. The precipitating events to stimulate retrograde autophagosome transport have been debated but their importance is clear: disrupting neuronal autophagy or autophagosome transport is detrimental to neuronal health and function. We have identified the HOPS complex as essential for early autophagosome maturation and consequent initiation of retrograde transport from the axon terminal. In yeast and mammalian cells, HOPS controls fusion between autophagosomes and late endosomes with lysosomes. Using zebrafish strains with loss-of-function mutations in vps18 and vps41, core components of the HOPS complex, we found that disruption of HOPS eliminates autophagosome maturation and disrupts retrograde autophagosome transport initiation from the axon terminal. We confirmed this phenotype was due to loss of HOPS complex formation using an endogenous deletion of the HOPS binding domain in Vps18. Finally, using pharmacological inhibition of lysosomal proteases, we show that initiation of autophagosome retrograde transport requires autophagosome maturation. Together, our data demonstrate that HOPS-mediated fusion events are critical for retrograde autophagosome transport initiation through promoting autophagosome maturation. This reveals critical roles for the HOPS complex in neuronal autophagy which deepens our understanding of the cellular pathology of HOPS-complex linked neurodegenerative diseases.

description: Regressing the accelerated degradation of skeletal muscle protein is a significant goal for cancer cachexia management. Here, we show that genetic deletion of Pgam5 ameliorates skeletal muscle atrophy in various tumor-bearing mice. pgam5 ablation represses excessive myoblast mitophagy and effectively suppresses mitochondria meltdown and muscle wastage. Next, we define BNIP3 as a mitophagy receptor constitutively associating with PGAM5. bnip3 deletion restricts body weight loss and enhances the gastrocnemius mass index in the age- and tumor size-matched experiments. The NH2-terminal region of PGAM5 binds to the PEST motif-containing region of BNIP3 to dampen the ubiquitination and degradation of BNIP3 to maintain continuous mitophagy. Finally, we identify S100A9 as a pro-cachectic chemokine via activating AGER/RAGE. AGER deficiency or S100A9 inhibition restrains skeletal muscle loss by weakening the interaction between PGAM5 and BNIP3. In conclusion, the AGER-PGAM5-BNIP3 axis is a novel but common pathway in cancer-associated muscle wasting that can be targetable.

description: Climate change is likely to alter the runoff regime and its origin in the Nemunas River basin. The changes in runoff volume, seasonality and flood regime might affect hydropower production management, the potential of a forthcoming nuclear power plant and the stability of ecosystems. The water balance model WatBal was used to estimate the changes in the Nemunas River basin hydrology during the periods 1981–2000 and 2081–2100. The monthly air temperature and precipitation projections for the 21st century were estimated using the CMIP 5 model outputs. The two most diverse representative concentration pathways, RCP2.6 and RCP8.5, were analysed in this study to evaluate the spectrum of probable changes in the Nemunas River basin hydrology. The results revealed that the hydrological response to climate change in the Nemunas River basin would be most likely related to the change in snow climate. The projected magnitude of runoff changes during winter and spring is comparable for both scenarios, but the most important distinction is the difference in the cold-season hydrological regime, and especially water supply during winter and spring. According to the climate change scenarios both rain-snow and only rain dominant hydrological regimes are probable in the Nemunas River basin at the end of the 21st century.

Why Random Pruning Is All We Need to Start Sparse
Creators: name: Gadhikar, Advait
name: Mukherjee, Sohom

Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2024

description: Random masks define surprisingly effective sparse neural network models, as has been shown empirically. The resulting sparse networks can often compete with dense architectures and state-of-the-art lottery ticket pruning algorithms, even
though they do not rely on computationally expensive prune-train iterations and can be drawn initially without significant computational over-head. We offer a theoretical explanation of how random masks can approximate arbitrary target networks if they are wider by a logarithmic factor
in the inverse sparsity 1/ log(1/sparsity). This overparameterization factor is necessary at least for 3-layer random networks, which elucidates the observed degrading performance of random networks at higher sparsity. At moderate to high sparsity levels, however, our results imply that sparser networks are contained within random source networks so that any dense-to-sparse training scheme can be turned into a computationally more efficient sparse to sparse one by constraining the search to a fixed random mask. We demonstrate the feasibility of this approach
in experiments for different pruning methods and propose particularly effective choices of initial layer-wise sparsity ratios of the random source network. As a special case, we show theoretically and experimentally that random source networks also contain strong lottery tickets. Our code is available at https://github.com/RelationalML/sparse_to_sparse.
Environmental effects on the recruitment dynamics of coregonids from the Petchora River

description: Stock-recruitment processes in four coregonid species, Coregonus lavaretus pidschian, C. peled, C. albula maris-albi and C. autumnalis, from the Petchora River were investigated. The dynamics of density-independent mortality for the 0-group of each species were reconstructed using stock-recruitment models and compared with environmental factors including average monthly water surface temperature, average monthly water level, monthly total length of open sunshine, ice thickness during winter months, and date of steady ice cover setting. The results of a stepwise variable selection analysis showed that 68.7% to 95.1% of the recruitment variability is due to perturbations in environmental conditions. The primary factor influencing pre-recruitment mortality is insolation. Less important, but still significant, factors are water temperature and water level.

description: Paraphrase generation is a pivotal task in natural language processing (NLP). Existing datasets in the domain lack syntactic and lexical diversity, resulting in paraphrases that closely resemble the source sentences. Moreover, these datasets often contain hate speech and noise, and may unintentionally include non-English language sentences. This research introduces ParaFusion, a large-scale, high-quality English paraphrase dataset developed using Large Language Models (LLM) to address these challenges. ParaFusion augments existing datasets with high-quality data, significantly enhancing both lexical and syntactic diversity while maintaining close semantic similarity. It also mitigates the presence of hate speech and reduces noise, ensuring a cleaner and more focused English dataset. Results show that ParaFusion offers at least a 25% improvement in both syntactic and lexical diversity, measured across several metrics for each data source. The paper also aims to set a gold standard for paraphrase evaluation as it contains one of the most comprehensive evaluation strategies to date. The results underscore the potential of ParaFusion as a valuable resource for improving NLP applications.

description: Better land stewardship is needed to achieve the Paris Agreement's temperature goal, particularly in the tropics, where greenhouse gas emissions from the destruction of ecosystems are largest, and where the potential for additional land carbon storage is greatest. As countries enhance their nationally determined contributions (NDCs) to the Paris Agreement, confusion persists about the potential contribution of better land stewardship to meeting the Agreement's goal to hold global warming below 2 degrees C. We assess cost-effective tropical country-level potential of natural climate solutions (NCS)-protection, improved management and restoration of ecosystems-to deliver climate mitigation linked with sustainable development goals (SDGs). We identify groups of countries with distinctive NCS portfolios, and we explore factors (governance, financial capacity) influencing the feasibility of unlocking national NCS potential. Cost-effective tropical NCS offers globally significant climate mitigation in the coming decades (6.56 Pg CO(2)e yr(-1) at less than 100 US$ per Mg CO(2)e). In half of the tropical countries, cost-effective NCS could mitigate over half of national emissions. In more than a quarter of tropical countries, cost-effective NCS potential is greater than national emissions. We identify countries where, with international financing and political will, NCS can cost-effectively deliver the majority of enhanced NDCs while transforming national economies and contributing to SDGs. This article is part of the theme issue 'Climate change and ecosystems: threats, opportunities and solutions'.

description: Hierarchical decays of $N$ matter species to radiation may balance against Hubble expansion to yield stasis, a new phase of cosmological evolution with constant matter and radiation abundances. We analyze stasis with various machine learning techniques on the full $2N$-dimensional space of decay rates and abundances, which serve as inputs to the system of Boltzmann equations that governs the dynamics. We construct a differentiable Boltzmann solver to maximize the number of stasis $e$-folds $\mathcal{N}$. High-stasis configurations obtained by gradient ascent motivate log-uniform distributions on rates and abundances to accompany power-law distributions of previous works. We demonstrate that random configurations drawn from these families of distributions regularly exhibit many $e$-folds of stasis. We additionally use them as priors in a Bayesian analysis conditioned on stasis, using stochastic variational inference with normalizing flows to model the posterior. All three numerical analyses demonstrate the generality of stasis and point to a new model in which the rates and abundances are exponential in the species index. We show that the exponential model solves the exact stasis equations, is an attractor, and satisfies $\mathcal{N}\propto N$, exhibiting inflation-level $e$-folding with a relatively low number of species. This is contrasted with the $\mathcal{N}\propto \log(N)$ scaling of power-law models. Finally, we discuss implications for the emergent string conjecture and string axiverse.

description: Underwater Unmanned Vehicles (UUVs) have to constantly compensate for the external disturbing forces acting on their body. Adaptive Control theory is commonly used there to grant the control law some flexibility in its response to process variation. Today, learning-based (LB) adaptive methods are leading the field where model-based control structures are combined with deep model-free learning algorithms. This work proposes experiments and metrics to empirically study the stability of such a controller. We perform this stability analysis on a LB adaptive control system whose adaptive parameters are determined using a Cross-Entropy Deep Learning method.

Counterfactuals Modulo Temporal Logics
Creators: name: Finkbeiner, Bernd

Publisher: name: CISPA
Year: 2023

description: Lewis' theory of counterfactuals is the foundation of many contemporary notions of causality. In this paper, we extend this theory in the temporal direction to enable symbolic counterfactual reasoning on infinite sequences, such as counterexamples found by a model checker and trajectories produced by a reinforcement learning agent. In particular, our extension considers a more relaxed notion of similarity between worlds and proposes two additional counterfactual operators that close a semantic gap between the previous two in this more general setting. Further, we consider versions of counterfactuals that minimize the distance to the witnessing counterfactual worlds, a common requirement in causal analysis. To automate counterfactual reasoning in the temporal domain, we introduce a logic that combines temporal and counterfactual operators, and outline decision procedures for the satisfiability and trace-checking problems of this logic.

description: Dysregulation in protein homeostasis results in accumulation of protein aggregates, which are sequestered into dedicated insoluble compartments so-called inclusion bodies or aggresomes, where they are scavenged through different mechanisms to reduce proteotoxicity. The protein aggregates can be selectively scavenged by macroautophagy/autophagy called aggrephagy, which is mediated by the autophagic receptor SQSTM1. In this study, we have identified PLK2 as an important regulator of SQSTM1-mediated aggregation of polyubiquitinated proteins. PLK2 is upregulated following proteasome inhibition, and then associates with and phosphorylates SQSTM1 at S349. The phosphorylation of SQSTM1 S349 strengthens its binding to KEAP1, which is required for formation of large SQSTM1 aggregates/bodies upon proteasome inhibition. Our findings suggest that PLK2-mediated phosphorylation of SQSTM1 S349 represents a critical regulatory mechanism in SQSTM1-mediated aggregation of polyubiquitinated proteins.
Impact of acid sulfate soil catchments on water quality in a lake in western Finland; trends and total metal load

description: Acid sulfate soils occur worldwide and can cause serious ecological damage by releasing acidity and toxic metals into watercourses. This study focused on short- and long-term changes to the water quality of a lake in western Finland. Here, a decline in water quality took place in the late 1960s. Since then, events concerning poor water quality have frequently occurred. The annual load of some potentially toxic metals varied from hundreds of kilograms to thousands of tons, depending on the metal. The proportion of low-order streams draining the nearest field to the lake is only 7% of the catchment area, while the share of the total metal load was estimated to be over 30%. This points to the importance of monitoring small coastal catchments. High runoff conditions were proven to be more important in terms of water quality than occasional summer droughts. During the past decade, acidic conditions have become more prolonged in the autumn, which is in line with a predicted scenario relating to climate change.

description: We introduce a theoretical framework to describe the heat flux radiated in the near-field regime by a set of magneto-optical thermal nanoemitters close to a substrate in the presence of an external magnetic field. Then, we investigate the particular case of a single emitter and we demonstrate that the external field can induce both an amplification of the heat exchanged between emittter and substrate and a focusing of the Poynting field at the substrate interface at deep sub-wavelength scale. These effects open up promising perspectives for the development of heat-assisted magnetic-recording technology.

Prediction of cardiorespiratory events in preterm infants
Creators: name: Jiang, Haimin
Publisher: name: University of Tasmania
Year: 2024

description: Every year, about 15 million infants are born prematurely, and approximately 1 million child deaths are related to complications of preterm birth. Cardiorespiratory events, defined as intermittent apnoea, hypoxemic or bradycardic episodes, are the most com?mon developmental disorder in preterm infants and are associated with some acute and long-term complications, including retinopathy, multi-organ dysfunction, and neurodevel?opmental impairment. If these cardiorespiratory events can be predicted, preventative interventions could be applied to minimise harm to the infant or even avoid these events. Machine learning techniques have already shown their usefulness in healthcare. This thesis aimed to investigate the utility of machine learning models for the automated prediction of cardiorespiratory events.
In this study, data were collected at Royal Hobart Hospital involving 31 preterm infants and included 3591 hours of electrocardiogram and respiratory motion recordings. We extracted a set of features from the signals available in the current neonatal intensive care unit based on feature analysis and the knowledge of domain experts. Changes in the feature distribution at various time intervals preceding these cardiorespiratory events were analysed to identify potential precursors to the cardiorespiratory events. A variety of machine learning techniques has been tried and their performances were compared, including Artificial Neural Network, Support Vector Machine, Random Forest, and some deep-learning methods.
We found that bradycardia prediction would benefit from incorporating respiratory information. Prediction of hypoxemic events using our trained machine learning models outperformed the current threshold-based alarm system. Our feature analysis demonstrated that apnoea does not occur in isolation but is heralded by cardiorespiratory instability. Our findings suggest that some subtle patterns in the cardiorespiratory signals can provide important information for predicting apnoea. Even though there are still a number of challenges that need to be overcome before these predictive models can be applied to real-life healthcare, the prediction of cardiorespiratory events is promising.

description: Mitochondria undergo fission and fusion, and their coordinated balance is crucial for maintaining mitochondrial homeostasis. In yeast, the dynamin-related protein Dnm1 is a mitochondrial fission factor acting from outside the mitochondria. We recently reported the mitochondrial intermembrane space protein Atg44/mitofissin/Mdi1/Mco8 as a novel fission factor, but the relationship between Atg44 and Dnm1 remains elusive. Here, we show that Atg44 is required to complete Dnm1-mediated mitochondrial fission under homeostatic conditions. Atg44-deficient cells often exhibit enlarged mitochondria with accumulated Dnm1 and rosary-like mitochondria with Dnm1 foci at constriction sites. These mitochondrial constriction sites retain the continuity of both the outer and inner membranes within an extremely confined space, indicating that Dnm1 is unable to complete mitochondrial fission without Atg44. Moreover, accumulated Atg44 proteins are observed at mitochondrial constriction sites. These findings suggest that Atg44 and Dnm1 cooperatively execute mitochondrial fission from inside and outside the mitochondria, respectively.

description: In this paper, we discuss the practical implementation of stealthy attacks on industrial control systems. We start by reviewing the attacks proposed in prior works. Then, we offer Zero-Residual Attacks (ZeRA), which allow the attacker to launch stealthy attacks leveraging estimation of the stateful anomaly detector and matching of residuals as a fraction of actual estimation residual. To perform the zero residual attack, the attacker will require the use of two state estimators each for the physical system state and the detector system state, adding complexity that was so far not discussed. We implement ZeRA and demonstrate its efficacy. Then, we propose to use a Stateful Detector (SD) to precisely detect such stealthy attacks. We design and implement the SD detector. The obtained results from the performance evaluation demonstrate that we can detect stealthy attacks such as the ZeRA, with precision above 99%, sensitivity above 99%, and Matthews correlation coefficient above 0.98.

description: The effects of global warming on the six freshwater fish species, whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus (L.)), brown trout (Salmo trutta L.), bream (Abramis brama (L.)), roach (Rutilus rutilus (L.)), perch (Perca fluviatilis L.), and pikeperch (Stizostedion lucioperca (L.)), were studied on the basis of temperature scenarios made by the weather generator and the PROBE model. Two theoretical indices were used to evaluate the effects of warming on the fish species: temperature sum of growth habitat and the number of days when water temperature was above the lowest stress level. The results showed that cool- and warmwater species will benefit from warming in the whole of Finland while the habitats of coldwater species will shrink primarily in southern Finland. For all the selected species the growing season will start earlier, but for the coldwater species (whitefish and brown trout) epilimnic temperatures will rise above stress levels during the summer. This may cause population collapses of these species in the shallow lakes of southern Finland. The range of bream and pikeperch may shift northward to cover the whole of Finland by 2060.

description: Rare-earth ion doped crystals are state-of-the-art platforms for processing quantum information, particularly thanks to their excellent optical and spin coherence properties at cryogenic temperatures. Experimental observations have shown that the application of a static magnetic bias field significantly improves the coherence times in the rare-earth ions ensemble, but only a few studies have focused on its the dependency as a function of both magnetic field direction and amplitude. This is especially true for magnetic field amplitudes under the mT, and for low magnetic dipole moment ions. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the magnetic field parameters and the decoherence caused by magnetic dipole-dipole coupling with the nearest neighbors nuclear spins in the crystal. The primary non-Kramers rare-earth ions investigated here are europium and praseodymium, but we also extend our study to the ytterbium Kramers ion due to its low magnetic dipole in the mT range. We perform theoretical investigations and simulations of the energy structure and coherence time evolution and identify good correspondences between experimental and simulated spin echo data. This work allows us to pinpoint the most relevant decoherence mechanisms in the considered magnetic field regime, and to predict favorable magnetic configurations.

description: ATG10S is a newly discovered subtype of the autophagy protein ATG10. It promotes complete macroautophagy/autophagy, degrades multiple viral proteins, and increases the expression of type III interferons. Here, we aimed to investigate the mechanism of ATG10S cooperation with IFNL1 to degrade viral proteins from different viruses. Using western blot, immunoprecipitation (IP), tandem sensor RFP-GFP-LC3B and in situ proximity ligation assays, we showed that exogenous recombinant ATG10S protein (rHsATG10S) could enter into cells through clathrin, and ATG10S combined with ATG7 with IFNL1 assistance to facilitate ATG12–ATG5 conjugation, thereby contributing to the autophagosome formation in multiple cell lines containing different virions or viral proteins. The results of DNA IP and luciferase assays also showed that ATG10S was able to directly bind to a core motif (CAAGGG) within a binding site of transcription factor ZNF460 on the IFNL1 promoter, by which IFNL1 transcription was activated. These results clarified that ATG10S promoted autophagosome formation with the assistance of IFNL1 to ensure autophagy flux and autophagic degradation of multiple viral proteins and that ATG10S could also act as a novel transcription factor to promote IFNL1 gene expression. Importantly, this study further explored the antiviral mechanism of ATG10S interaction with type III interferon and provided a theoretical basis for the development of ATG10S into a new broad-spectrum antiviral protein drug.

description: Insect herbivory of plants leads to the increased emissions of highly reactive volatile organic compounds (VOCs). We measured above-ground VOC emissions of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) saplings in the laboratory using a proton-transfer-reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometer (PTR-ToF-MS) before, during and after a 48-hour exposure to bark-feeding pine weevils. This study provides an in-depth investigation of the whole-plant VOC emission profile and its changes due to pine weevil feeding with a high time resolution. Monoterpenes dominated the emissions during and after herbivore feeding. The average monoterpene emission rate increase due to pine weevil feeding was 90 times and maximum monoterpene emission response was linearly proportional to the damaged bark area, demonstrating a dose-dependent response. Overall, the emission rates of more than ten VOC groups were increased due to herbivore feeding. These results increase knowledge about the effect of bark-feeding herbivores on VOC emissions from conifer forests and shed light on the important influence of herbivore ecosystem disturbance on atmospheric chemistry.
Multi-Stage Group Key Distribution and PAKEs: Securing Zoom Groups against Malicious Servers without New Security Elements

description: Video conferencing apps like Zoom have hundreds of millions of daily users, making them a high-value target for surveillance and subversion. While such apps claim to achieve some forms of end-to-end encryption, they usually assume an incorruptible server that is able to identify and authenticate all the parties in a meeting. Concretely this means that, e.g., even when using the “end-to-end encrypted” setting, malicious Zoom servers could eavesdrop or impersonate in arbitrary groups.

In this work, we show how security against malicious servers can be improved by changing the way in which such protocols use passwords (known as passcodes in Zoom) and integrating
a password-authenticated key exchange (PAKE) protocol.

To formally prove that our approach achieves its goals, we
formalize a class of cryptographic protocols suitable for this setting, and define a basic security notion for them, in which group security can be achieved assuming the server is trusted to correctly authorize the group members. We prove that Zoom indeed meets this notion. We then propose a stronger security notion that can provide security against malicious servers, and propose a transformation that can achieve this notion. We show how we can apply our transformation to Zoom to provably achieve stronger security against malicious servers, notably without introducing new security elements.

description: Ice conditions for maritime traffic in the Baltic Sea in past/present (1961–2005) and future climates (2006–2100) were investigated. To model the ice conditions, a state-of-the-art ocean model, Nemo-Nordic, with a coupled ice model, LIM3, was applied. The model is forced with downscaled atmospheric fields from two global climate models using two different greenhouse-gas concentration scenarios giving an ensemble of four realisations of possible future ice conditions. Even though ice extent will be reduced in future climate and ice seasons will become shorter, completely ice-free winters are unlikely during the present century. In future climate, the ice becomes thinner, thus fewer traffic restrictions will be needed, but with a large inter-annual variability. In future climate, the ice will also become more mobile.
