A repudiation attack is any attack that makes one of the endpoints wrongly assume that a message has been tampered with and therefore refuse it.

Most common example is token exchange. Every time Bob and Alice send a message to each other they send a token, proving that it was really them who sent the message. A repudiation attack would be to tamper with the token.
