SemBind: Binding Diffusion Watermarks to Semantics Against Black-Box Forgery Attacks
Latent-based watermarks, integrated into the generation process of latent diffusion models (LDMs), simplify detection and attribution of generated images. However, recent black-box forgery attacks, where an attacker needs at least one watermarked image and black-box access to the provider's model, can embed the provider's watermark into images not produced by the provider, posing outsized risk to provenance and trust. We propose SemBind, the first defense framework for latent-based watermarks that resists black-box forgery by binding latent signals to image semantics via a learned semantic masker. Trained with contrastive learning, the masker yields near-invariant codes for the same prompt and near-orthogonal codes across prompts; these codes are reshaped and permuted to modulate the target latent before any standard latent-based watermark. SemBind is generally compatible with existing latent-based watermarking schemes and keeps image quality essentially unchanged, while a simple mask-ratio parameter offers a tunable trade-off between anti-forgery strength and robustness. Across four mainstream latent-based watermark methods, our SemBind-enabled anti-forgery variants markedly reduce false acceptance under black-box forgery while providing a controllable robustness-security balance.

IRIS: Visual-Semantic Binding for Forgery-Resistant Watermarking of Diffusion Images
Most in-generation diffusion watermarks embed patterns independent of the image that carries them, and attackers transplant the marks onto images the generator did not produce, resulting in forgery. Binding the mark to v…
Breaking Semantic-Aware Watermarks via LLM-Guided Coherence-Preserving Semantic Injection
Generative images have proliferated on Web platforms in social media and online copyright distribution scenarios, and semantic watermarking has increasingly been integrated into diffusion models to support reliable prove…
Latent Watermark: Inject and Detect Watermarks in Latent Diffusion Space
Watermarking is a tool for actively identifying and attributing the images generated by latent diffusion models. Existing methods face the dilemma of image quality and watermark robustness. Watermarks with superior image…
Removing Watermarks with Partial Regeneration using Semantic Information
As AI-generated imagery becomes ubiquitous, invisible watermarks have emerged as a primary line of defense for copyright and provenance. The newest watermarking schemes embed semantic signals - content-aware patterns tha…
