Interactive Backdoor Attacks in LLM-Based Proactive Dialogue Systems

A new study warns that fine-tuning large language model (LLM)-based proactive dialogue systems with external data can introduce backdoor vulnerabilities, which existing research has largely overlooked. This matters because such systems are used for goal-directed support and could be exploited if attackers sneak in malicious instructions through the training data.
