IntraShuffler: Privacy-Preserving Framework for Heterogeneous DP Federated Learning

This paper identifies a novel Privacy Inference Attack against heterogeneous differential privacy federated learning (HDP-FL) systems, where an honest-but-curious server exploits epsilon-aware aggregation and gradient denoising to infer client data distributions and link updates across rounds. To counter this, the authors propose IntraShuffler, a middleware framework that groups clients into privacy-compatible buckets and performs parameter-level shuffling within buckets, preserving epsilon-aware aggregation while disrupting persistent gradient structure. Experiments on four datasets show IntraShuffler reduces gradient recoverability by over 60% and drops surrogate inference accuracy from 0.78 to 0.33 with minimal utility loss.
