Tainting the CSAM client-side scanning database
Summary: The European Commission's proposal for a regulation on preventing and combatting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) is under discussion in the Dutch parliament. Concerns have been raised about the possibility of tainting the CSAM client-side scanning database, allowing adversaries to trigger alarms for non-CSAM material. This vulnerability could lead to undetectable function creep and potential misuse by authoritarian governments. The effectiveness of the system depends on the handling of reports and the overall design of the client-side scanning system.
