What the hell is hanging above the Mount Fuji??

ElcomSoft Co. Ltd. has discovered vulnerability in Canon Original Data Security, a verification system to provide image data verification features intended to authenticate image originality. The vulnerability allows extracting the original signing key from a Canon digital camera and using the key to put an authenticity signature to a photo or any digital image, which will be validated as an original and authentic.

 

The vulnerability discovered by ElcomSoft questions the authenticity of all Canon signed photographic evidence and published photos, and effectively proves the entire Canon Original Data Security system useless.

 

This photo illustrates facts described above. You can verify it using Canon OSK-E3 (Canon Original Data Security Kit). Please download original file for verification here: www.elcomsoft.com/images/canon/Fuji.jpg
