Machine Learning (ML)-powered apps are used in pervasive devices such as phones, tablets, smartwatches and IoT devices. Recent advances in collaborative, distributed ML such as Federated Learning (FL) attempt to solve privacy concerns of users and data owners, and thus used by tech industry leaders such as Google, Facebook and Apple. However, FL systems and models are still vulnerable to adversarial membership and attribute inferences and model poisoning attacks, especially in FL-as-a-Service ecosystems recently proposed, which can enable attackers to access multiple ML-powered apps. In this work, we focus on the recently proposed Sponge attack: It is designed to soak up energy consumed while executing inference (not training) of ML model, without hampering the classifier's performance. Recent work has shown sponge attacks on ASCI-enabled GPUs can potentially escalate the power consumption and inference time. For the first time, in this work, we investigate this attack in the mobile setting and measure the effect it can have on ML models running inside apps on mobile devices.
