 News

Over the past 18 months or so, we seem to have lost the ability to trust our eyes. Photoshop fakes are nothing new, of course, but the advent of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has taken fakery to a whole new level. Perhaps the first viral AI fake was the 2023 image of the Pope in a white designer puffer   show more ...  

jacket, but since then the number of high-quality eye deceivers has skyrocketed into the many thousands. And as AI develops further, we can expect more and more convincing fake videos in the very near future. One of the first deepfakes to go viral worldwide: the Pope sporting a trendy white puffer jacket This will only exacerbate the already knotty problem of fake news and accompanying images. These might show a photo from one event and claim its from another, put people whove never met in the same picture, and so on. Image and video spoofing has a direct bearing on cybersecurity. Scammers have been using fake images and videos to trick victims into parting with their cash for years. They might send you a picture of a sad puppy they claim needs help, an image of a celebrity promoting some shady schemes, or even a picture of a credit card they say belongs to someone you know. Fraudsters also use AI-generated images for profiles for catfishing on dating sites and social media. The most sophisticated scams make use of deepfake video and audio of the victims boss or a relative to get them to do the scammers bidding. Just recently, an employee of a financial institution was duped into transferring $25 million to cybercrooks! They had set up a video call with the CFO and colleagues of the victim — all deepfakes. So what can be done to deal with deepfakes or just plain fakes? How can they be detected? This is an extremely complex problem, but one that can be mitigated step by step — by tracing the provenance of the image. Wait… havent I seen that before? As mentioned above, there are different kinds of fakeness. Sometimes the image itself isnt fake, but its used in a misleading way. Maybe a real photo from a warzone is passed off as being from another conflict, or a scene from a movie is presented as documentary footage. In these cases, looking for anomalies in the image itself wont help much, but you can try searching for copies of the picture online. Luckily, weve got tools like Google Reverse Image Search and TinEye, which can help us do just that. If youve any doubts about an image, just upload it to one of these tools and see what comes up. You might find that the same picture of a family made homeless by fire, or a group of shelter dogs, or victims of some other tragedy has been making the rounds online for years. Incidentally, when it comes to false fundraising, there are a few other red flags to watch out for besides the images themselves. Dog from a shelter? No, from a photo stock Photoshopped? Well soon know. Since photoshopping has been around for a while, mathematicians, engineers, and image experts have long been working on ways to detect altered images automatically. Some popular methods include image metadata analysis and error level analysis (ELA), which checks for JPEG compression artifacts to identify modified portions of an image. Many popular image analysis tools, such as Fake Image Detector, apply these techniques. Fake Image Detector warns that the Pope probably didnt wear this on Easter Sunday Or ever With the emergence of generative AI, weve also seen new AI-based methods for detecting generated content, but none of them are perfect. Here are some of the relevant developments: detection of face morphing; detection of AI-generated images and determining the AI model used to generate them; and an open AI model for the same purposes. With all these approaches, the key problem is that none gives you 100% certainty about the provenance of the image, guarantees that the image is free of modifications, or makes it possible to verify any such modifications. WWW to the rescue: verifying content provenance Wouldnt it be great if there were an easier way for regular users to check if an image is the real deal? Imagine clicking on a picture and seeing something like: John took this photo with an iPhone on March 20, Ann cropped the edges and increased the brightness on March 22, Peter re-saved this image with high compression on March 23, or No changes were made — and all such data would be impossible to fake. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, thats exactly what the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity (C2PA) is aiming for. C2PA includes some major players from the computer, photography, and media industries: Canon, Nikon, Sony, Adobe, AWS, Microsoft, Google, Intel, BBC, Associated Press, and about a hundred other members — basically all the companies that could have been individually involved in pretty much any step of an images life from creation to publication online. The C2PA standard developed by this coalition is already out there and has even reached version 1.3, and now were starting to see the pieces of the industrial puzzle necessary to use it fall into place. Nikon is planning to make C2PA-compatible cameras, and the BBC has already published its first articles with verified images. BBC talks about how images and videos in its articles are verified The idea is that when responsible media outlets and big companies switch to publishing images in verified form, youll be able to check the provenance of any image directly in the browser. Youll see a little verified image label, and when you click on it, a bigger window will pop up showing you what images served as the source, and what edits were made at each stage before the image appeared in the browser and by whom and when. Youll even be able to see all the intermediate versions of the image. History of image creation and editing This approach isnt just for cameras; it can work for other ways of creating images too. Services like Dall-E and Midjourney can also label their creations. This was clearly created in Adobe Photoshop The verification process is based on public-key cryptography similar to the protection used in web server certificates for establishing a secure HTTPS connection. The idea is that every image creator — be it Joe Bloggs with a particular type of camera, or Angela Smith with a Photoshop license — will need to obtain an X.509 certificate from a trusted certificate authority. This certificate can be hardwired directly into the camera at the factory, while for software products it can be issued upon activation. When processing images with provenance tracking, each new version of the file will contain a large amount of extra information: the date, time, and location of the edits, thumbnails of the original and edited versions, and so on. All this will be digitally signed by the author or editor of the image. This way, a verified image file will have a chain of all its previous versions, each signed by the person who edited it. This video contains AI-generated content The authors of the specification were also concerned with privacy features. Sometimes, journalists cant reveal their sources. For situations like that, theres a special type of edit called redaction. This allows someone to replace some of the information about the image creator with zeros and then sign that change with their own certificate. To showcase the capabilities of C2PA, a collection of test images and videos was created. You can check out the Content Credentials website to see the credentials, creation history, and editing history of these images. The Content Credentials website reveals the full background of C2PA images Natural limitations Unfortunately, digital signatures for images wont solve the fakes problem overnight. After all, there are already billions of images online that havent been signed by anyone and arent going anywhere. However, as more and more reputable information sources switch to publishing only signed images, any photo without a digital signature will start to be viewed with suspicion. Real photos and videos with timestamps and location data will be almost impossible to pass off as something else, and AI-generated content will be easier to spot.

image for April’s Patch Tues ...

 Time to Patch

If only Patch Tuesdays came around infrequently — like total solar eclipse rare — instead of just creeping up on us each month like The Man in the Moon. Although to be fair, it would be tough for Microsoft to eclipse the number of vulnerabilities fixed in this month’s patch batch — a record 147   show more ...  

flaws in Windows and related software. Yes, you read that right. Microsoft today released updates to address 147 security holes in Windows, Office, Azure, .NET Framework, Visual Studio, SQL Server, DNS Server, Windows Defender, Bitlocker, and Windows Secure Boot. “This is the largest release from Microsoft this year and the largest since at least 2017,” said Dustin Childs, from Trend Micro’s Zero Day Initiative (ZDI). “As far as I can tell, it’s the largest Patch Tuesday release from Microsoft of all time.” Once again this month, there are no known zero-day vulnerabilities threatening Windows users. Tempering the sheer volume of this month’s patches is the middling severity of many of the bugs. Only three of April’s vulnerabilities earned Microsoft’s most-dire “critical” rating, meaning they can be abused by malware or malcontents to take remote control over unpatched systems with no help from users. Most of the flaws that Microsoft deems “more likely to be exploited” this month are marked as “important,” which usually involve bugs that require a bit more user interaction (social engineering) but which nevertheless can result in system security bypass, compromise, and the theft of critical assets. Ben McCarthy, lead cyber security engineer at Immersive Labs called attention to CVE-2024-20670, an Outlook for Windows spoofing vulnerability described as being easy to exploit. It involves convincing a user to click on a malicious link in an email, which can then steal the user’s password hash and authenticate as the user in another Microsoft service. Another interesting bug McCarthy pointed to is CVE-2024-29063, which involves hard-coded credentials in Azure’s search backend infrastructure that could be gleaned by taking advantage of Azure AI search. “This along with many other AI attacks in recent news shows a potential new attack surface that we are just learning how to mitigate against,” McCarthy said. “Microsoft has updated their backend and notified any customers who have been affected by the credential leakage.” CVE-2024-29988 is a weakness that allows attackers to bypass Windows SmartScreen, a technology Microsoft designed to provide additional protections for end users against phishing and malware attacks. Childs said one ZDI’s researchers found this vulnerability being exploited in the wild, although Microsoft doesn’t currently list CVE-2024-29988 as being exploited. “I would treat this as in the wild until Microsoft clarifies,” Childs said. “The bug itself acts much like CVE-2024-21412 – a [zero-day threat from February] that bypassed the Mark of the Web feature and allows malware to execute on a target system. Threat actors are sending exploits in a zipped file to evade EDR/NDR detection and then using this bug (and others) to bypass Mark of the Web.” Satnam Narang at Tenable notes that this month’s release includes fixes for two dozen flaws in Windows Secure Boot, the majority of which are considered “Exploitation Less Likely” according to Microsoft. “However, the last time Microsoft patched a flaw in Windows Secure Boot in May 2023 had a notable impact as it was exploited in the wild and linked to the BlackLotus UEFI bootkit, which was sold on dark web forums for $5,000,” Narang said. “BlackLotus can bypass functionality called secure boot, which is designed to block malware from being able to load when booting up. While none of these Secure Boot vulnerabilities addressed this month were exploited in the wild, they serve as a reminder that flaws in Secure Boot persist, and we could see more malicious activity related to Secure Boot in the future.” For links to individual security advisories indexed by severity, check out ZDI’s blog and the Patch Tuesday post from the SANS Internet Storm Center. Please consider backing up your data or your drive before updating, and drop a note in the comments here if you experience any issues applying these fixes. Adobe today released nine patches tackling at least two dozen vulnerabilities in a range of software products, including Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Commerce, InDesign, Experience Manager, Media Encoder, Bridge, Illustrator, and Adobe Animate. KrebsOnSecurity needs to correct the record on a point mentioned at the end of March’s “Fat Patch Tuesday” post, which looked at new AI capabilities built into Adobe Acrobat that are turned on by default. Adobe has since clarified that its apps won’t use AI to auto-scan your documents, as the original language in its FAQ suggested. “In practice, no document scanning or analysis occurs unless a user actively engages with the AI features by agreeing to the terms, opening a document, and selecting the AI Assistant or generative summary buttons for that specific document,” Adobe said earlier this month.
