contents Recent research has constructed successful graph reconstruction attack (GRA) on GFL. But these attacks are still challenged in aspects of effectiveness and stealth. To address the issues, we propose the first Data Manipulation aided Reconstruction attack on GFL, dubbed as DMan4Rec. The malicious client is born to manipulate its locally collected data to enhance graph stealing privacy from benign ones, so as to construct double whammy on GFL. It differs from previous work in three terms: (1) effectiveness - to fully utilize the sparsity and feature smoothness of the graph, novel penalty terms are designed adaptive to diverse similarity functions for connected and unconnected node pairs, as well as incorporation label smoothing on top of the original cross-entropy loss. (2) scalability - DMan4Rec is capable of both white-box and black-box attacks via training a supervised model to infer the posterior probabilities obtained from limited queries (3) stealthiness - by manipulating the malicious client's node features, it can maintain the overall graph structure's invariance and conceal the attack. Comprehensive experiments on four real datasets and three GNN models demonstrate that DMan4Rec achieves the state-of-the-art (SOTA) attack performance, e.g., the attack AUC and precision improved by 9.2% and 10.5% respectively compared with the SOTA baselines. Particularly, DMan4Rec achieves an AUC score and a precision score of up to 99.59% and 99.56%, respectively in black-box setting. Nevertheless, the complete overlap of the distribution graphs supports the stealthiness of the attack. Besides, DMan4Rec still beats the defensive GFL, which alarms a new threat to GFL.
