Electric field switching of altermagnetic spin-splitting in multiferroic skyrmions

Magnetic skyrmions are localized magnetic structures that retain their shape and stability over time, thanks to their topological nature. Recent theoretical and experimental progress has laid the groundwork for understanding magnetic skyrmions characterized by negligible net magnetization and ultrafast dynamics. Notably, skyrmions emerging in materials with altermagnetism, a novel magnetic phase featuring lifted Kramers degeneracy-have remained unreported until now. In this study, we demonstrate that BiFeO3, a multiferroic renowned for its strong coupling between ferroelectricity and magnetism, can transit from a spin cycloid to a Neel-type skyrmion under antidamping spin-orbit torque at room temperature. Strikingly, the altermagnetic spin splitting within BiFeO3 skyrmion can be reversed through the application of an electric field, revealed via the Circular photogalvanic effect. This quasiparticle, which possesses a neutral topological charge, holds substantial promise for diverse applications-most notably, enabling the development of unconventional computing systems with low power consumption and magnetoelectric controllability.

HiMix: Hierarchical Artifact-aware Mixup for Generalized Synthetic Image Detection

The rapid evolution of generative models has enabled the creation of highly realistic and diverse synthetic images, posing significant challenges to reliable and generalizable Synthetic Image Detection (SID). However, existing detectors are typically trained on limited and biased datasets, resulting in poor generalization to unseen generators. To address this issue, we propose HiMix, a unified framework that enhances generalization by expanding the training distribution and promoting artifact-aware representations. Specifically, the Mixup-driven Distributional Augmentation (MDA) module constructs continuous transitional samples between real and fake images, improving coverage of low-confidence regions and exposing the model to more challenging samples, while the pixel-wise mixup operation smoothly perturbs semantics to enhance sensitivity to low-level artifacts. Moreover, the Hierarchical Artifact-aware Representation (HAR) module aggregates artifact information from both global and local levels through cross-layer integration and coarse-to-fine feature fusion, enabling the extraction of discriminative forgery representations under diverse distributions. Extensive experiments across multiple benchmarks demonstrate that HiMix achieves state-of-the-art performance, establishing well-separated logits for improved generalization to unseen forgeries.

Weak Links in Authentication Chains: A Large-scale Analysis of Email Sender Spoofing Attacks

As a fundamental communicative service, email is playing an important role in both individual and corporate communications, which also makes it one of the most frequently attack vectors. An email's authenticity is based on an authentication chain involving multiple protocols, roles and services, the inconsistency among which creates security threats. Thus, it depends on the weakest link of the chain, as any failed part can break the whole chain-based defense. This paper systematically analyzes the transmission of an email and identifies a series of new attacks capable of bypassing SPF, DKIM, DMARC and user-interface protections. In particular, by conducting a "cocktail" joint attack, more realistic emails can be forged to penetrate the celebrated email services, such as Gmail and Outlook. We conduct a large-scale experiment on 30 popular email services and 23 email clients, and find that all of them are vulnerable to certain types of new attacks. We have duly reported the identified vulnerabilities to the related email service providers, and received positive responses from 11 of them, including Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud and Alibaba. Furthermore, we propose key mitigating measures to defend against the new attacks. Therefore, this work is of great value for identifying email spoofing attacks and improving the email ecosystem's overall security.
