And where would they get the CSAM hash they need to match?
- nullc 5y agoThe bulk of the CSAM hash database comes widely circulated images, available on sleeze dark web websites (and historically on sketchy porn sites just on the web). So someone need only find a collection of likely included images and compute their hashes and publish it. The attack works just as well even if the attacker isn't sure that every hash is in the database, they just need to know enough likely-matches such that they get enough hits. Consider it this way, some attacker spends a couple hours searching for child porn and finds some stuff. ... what kind of failure would the NCMEC database be if it didn't include that material?
