JECA^2: Judgment-Explanation Consistent Adversarial Attack against Forensic Vision-Language Models

Forensic vision-language models (VLMs) have recently been developed to detect image tampering and provide natural-language explanations. However, their robustness against adversarial manipulation remains underexplored. Existing adversarial attacks typically aim to flip the model's binary judgment, while the accompanying explanation may still reveal forensic cues and contradict the attacked judgment. In this paper, we study judgment-explanation consistent adversarial attacks against forensic VLMs and propose JECA^2, a controlled white-box red-team diagnostic that jointly redirects visual attribution and aligns textual explanations with the target judgment. On the visual side, JECA^2 uses Grad-CAM-guided perturbations to divert attribution from tampered regions toward benign regions. On the textual side, it optimizes prompt embeddings toward authenticity-affirming semantics under a token-proximity constraint. Experiments on forensic VLM benchmarks show that JECA^2 achieves higher attack success and automated judgment-explanation consistency than implemented baselines under white-box threat settings, while transfer to closed-source VLMs remains measurable but limited. Our results highlight a consistency failure mode in explanation-based forensic VLMs and motivate future robustness evaluation beyond binary detection accuracy.
