great question!

f5Android library was ported in 2012

https://github.com/harlo/F5Android/commits/master

it was modified in 2/10/17 to remove the JFIF header (on line 666)

that change was merged to guardianproject f5Android 2/15/17

https://github.com/guardianproject/F5Android/commits/master

the pixel knot versions on the download page do NOT have the change (all 2015 and earlier)

so ONLY the play store version has the change

AND

the two devs involved in removing that header don't commit very often to the project, it's a strange change to make…

https://github.com/guardianproject/F5Android/commits?author=n8fr8

https://github.com/guardianproject/F5Android/commits?author=harlo

especially by this person

https://freedom.press/people/harlo-holmes/

this is not a popular library

0% CHANCE ANOTHER PIECE OF SOFTWARE IS USING THIS LIBRARY

The identified pxlknot images I looked at were all 96dpi and 24bit color.

A general approach to decryption is to start with the simplest image, and then encode one character. Examine the resulting image. Do it again with the same characterto see if there is a change.

Then sequentially encode '1','2', '3', etc. and see if there is a predictable pattern.

What you're looking for is a way to brute-force decode the image.

Also try to find the original images before they were subjected to pxlknot.

So just so to be sure, are you are saying the app store version is incompatible with the F5 library that is used with say tools built on linux?

I can't seem to extract data on linux that I embeded with the appstore apk (that I built from the source). I can't figure out why, but it mimic's some of the other responses from the previous bread.

Thanks for your help. I think I'm missing something, PixelUnknot is needed to decode the output from f5?

After getting bounced around in the 'bouncy castle' I was able to run PixelUnknot, but not sure how to get the message decoded.

Honestly, the only way I know of to speed this up would be to do what the bitcoin miners do and find a way to shunt the data into a graphics card to 'render' out the solution.

Not knowledgeable enough on this topic though to even wrap my head around how this gets done on a mathematical level, I just know that a graphics card can pump out hashes like there's no tomorrow.

it's a stretch, jpeg header can come in any order this is unique. only way to know for sure is to decode one of these or find another piece of software that does the same.

look at the images - they are creepy - and some of them are unique enough to find the sources - different websites images with the same naming convention 1_XXXX_XXXXXX that were posted on qresearch over the last few months

This is not a consistent way to find f5 images. In fact, it doesn't even work with the q test image available in this thread. Also, I see the same patterns in images I've created myself. Also if you use a hex editor to examine various images that are implicated as f5 this pattern does not fit. If you want to start comparing I recommend using beyondcompare and renaming the jpg to txt.

Just in case though, there seems to be a punisher image hidden in the Silverman image brought out with image filters.

Also what looks like a navy seal eagle image on the nose of the punisher skull.

I'll check, but someone was able to extract the message in the image I uploaded earlier. So there is some difference with my runtime vs. anon's runtime, or some bug someplace.

I want to make sure that I can verify results from PK app and then extract then on my box, this way I know for sure I have something that's reliable.

You got the fellow anon part right but sliding, in the same thread?

Yours is the first I've seen that matches that cap (just started working on this today). Do you have other images that fit this pattern? Otherwise, I haven't found any yet and the other version of the q example image had the FF C0 starting at 9E not 88, something isn't fitting here.

As for the python script its looking for files that begin with 'ff d8 ff db 00 84' which I also haven't found any images posted as examples on the board fitting this format.

This is also just one implementation of f5 with the missing jfif header. There are many from my understanding.

The CBS eye everyone keeps posting is 9E not 88 and has a header.

many others are FF C2 around 9E instead of C0.

>don't forget single and double quotes

Assuming the password accepts unicode, you may have a much bigger fight ahead of you. Consider other symbols like the pound sign (£) or the euro found on keyboards from other countries.

If it's unicode, you can safely assume UTF-8, given it's a pretty widespread standard.

Also, I recommend avoiding random character generators, but having a pre-computed array/table (for 3 characters).

If you're looking at additional bruteforcing power, a couple of recommendations:

1) Each of you should pick one picture each and specify what image you are trying to decode, and how. That way you're not duplicating each other's work.

2) If failed, specify what you tried and the 'results', if any.

For bringing hardware resources to bear:

1) Consider modded PS3s (some of you might have one or two lurking around), they're ideal for bruteforcing

2) Trial periods on cloud hosting repurposed (or alternately rent out some rackspace)

3) Dust off some old laptops, machines, and set them to work continuously whilst you do other things

4) Get some programmerfags to rewrite the testing code in bare metal (like C++) which would see mild performance improvements

Alternatively, if exhausting the three character space is too much, assign each of yourselves a single first character, and brute force all characters under that character.

So if one of you was to do 'A' (A), the next person would do 'B' (B).

Brute forcing isn't just about power but also efficient allocation of resources.

PS, Bitcoin's algorithm is SHA256. So if you're looking to break SHA256, look no further than your own noses. ; )

I think so. The test image I created with Pixelknot (from the Play store) is missing the JFIF at the beginning of the file. The "pixelunknot" brute force tool (almost) works on my test image.

I say "almost" because I ended up modifying the loop (pic related). My test image's password was "test", so that's a seed string of "st". The loop wouldn't try it even though I had "test" in the dictionary file. On a side note, I also added a HashSet that keeps track of everything attempted, to avoid re-trying common word endings.

I don't understand all the details but F5 stegnography encodes data by altering the DCT coefficients per 8x8 pixel block, those coefficients are stored with Huffman compression. The method of encoding is why the output image is always a JPEG. You would have to do statistical analysis of the JPEG coefficients… (assuming the software wasn't comprimised to leak additional info as well, the absence of JFIF header appears to be such a case)

We might be able to put the GPU to some use. The decoding part obviously has too much conditional branching for it to be of any use there. But the Permutation generation step is highly linear. It should be well suited to parallelization. It could be sent perspective passwords and a sizeN and send back an arrays. However, it would be memory bound. And the huge bandwidth requirements to send those arrays back to the main memory might be an issue.

I found the source for all the parts of SecureRandom and plan on making a perfect replica of it in C as a stepping stone to a possible GPU implementation. That is extremely ambitious for someone with my coding skill-level. But I can to it… eventually.

The Huffman decoding part is a non issue. You only need to do that once for an unlimited number of password attempts.

It's calling the SHA-based psudorandom number generator a million times in series (can't be paralleled) to decide which integers to shuffle around that takes most of the work.

Sorry that's for the AES decryption portion… still, I think we could use the existing hashcat code for the SHA portion of PRNG. SHA1/256 on hashcat is stupid fast. Something like 600m hashes/s on my old ass card.


0016c5  No.2385604

>>2385325

Hashcat is doing something totally different. It's trying to find the passwords that produced a set of hashes. It does this by hashing lots for trial passwords once in parallel'. We need to take one password, use it to set the state of the SHA algo, and then cycle the output back in many many times. This is an unavoidably serial process. If I indeed go down this rabbit hole it will probably involved reading the HashCat code as a way of learning how CPU<->GPU coding works. I might even use some parts from it. But beyond that programs like HashCat and John the Ripper are not useful to us.


4d00ef  No.2385732

>>2385604

I know. Rather than shooting for one target hash, we try 1k passwords at once and run each serially with however many iterations required, in parallel. I don't see a problem here. I still think it can be modified to our purpose.


0016c5  No.2386063

>>2385732

We are not really looking for one target hash. It would be nice if it were that simple. Here is the annoying chunk of code in question. 'random.getNextValue' calls 'SecureRandom' which was previously seeded using the password under test. Inside 'SecureRandom" there is a SHA hash function at the heart of it. 'size' is typically around a million.[code]public Permutation(int size, F5Random random) {

int i, randomIndex, tmp;

shuffled = new int[size];

// To create the shuffled sequence, we initialise an array

// with the integers 0 … (size-1).

for (i=0; i<size; i++) // initialise with size integers

shuffled[i] = i;

int maxRandom = size; // set number of entries to shuffle

for (i=0; i<size; i++) { // shuffle entries

randomIndex = random.getNextValue(maxRandom–);

tmp = shuffled[randomIndex];

shuffled[randomIndex] = shuffled[maxRandom];

shuffled[maxRandom] = tmp;

}[code] It's serial. And it's memory intensive. But at least there need be little conditional branching (which GPUs suck at). So this would use all of the GPUs RAM long before you got enough processes in parallel to use all of its computing power. It can't hurt to have a few hundred more cores helping the main CPU (as long as there are no memory bandwidth issues). But we're not going to get the same astronomical performance boost that HashCat gets.

Is size the size of the decompressed bitmap? Or is it something else?

PS tells me that's about 303K for illumipepe.

Even if it's 1MB as you say, that's still 1500 instances of the image.

With my lame 1.5GB graphics card that's still almost 5K potential instances


0016c5  No.2386742

>>2386525

Its the size of the DCT coefficient list.. which works out to be the same as the number of pixels * channels (RGB). But, practically, yes. Many of the images are larger than that one.

>With my lame 1.5GB graphics card that's still almost 5K potential instances

Indeed. I just need to work out how it will handle all the out of order loading and storing.


4d00ef  No.2386850

>>2386742

The DCT coefficient list only gets computed once, correct? If so, we only need to push one copy of the data to the graphics card and we should be able to copy it as many times as we want, no? And if we manage to implement it all on the graphics card, then all we really care about getting back is the rate of attempts and the valid key, if any. And yes, I understand many images are larger but essentially it would work out to max available GPU mem divided by decompressed image size in terms of threads. I'm willing to bet that's still a fuckton more than we've got going currently.


0016c5  No.2386977

>>2386850

Uh-huh. That is why I'm currently reading up on GPU programming.

The stumbling block I foresee is that there is a lot or random accessing going on after very short work segments will very short arrays. This is really not what GPUs are good at.

So the only people stupid enough to use that app are media types. Well, that's interesting. So when we crack this, there is a slightly less chance of finding CP from perverts and more of a chance finding gamer gate type collusion between media personal and/or leaks to the press from stupid gov members. Perfect. I knew there had to be a reason why Q pointed us to such a trash app.

I guess a good project, for those who aren't skilled at writing efficient code for password cracking, would be to work at better detecting PK images and scrapping them from the archives of /pol/, 4/pol/, perhaps QResearch, and all the social media of the various media figures/known government leakers. Perhaps even look at some of the pizza gate dumps for stego. And as always, If you do start finding PK images from journalists on their social media, archive and backup everything before you blow your load, so they don't delete more than they already have once they find out we know.

I picked a random file and tried generating a 4 letter list using only the characters in a files filename. Nothing.

But occurred to me last night that it was a 13 char filename. If it done by shuffling the filename somehow then I'd be looking for a 5 char key. I don't have the horsepower to attack that in a reasonable time. So when I get home today I'm gonna write a filter that reduces the set to only those that use any single char no more than the number of time it appears in the source filename, unless you want try it first. If you do then let me know so I don't reinvent a bad wheel.

Another suspect change on 1/7/17

why add jni c++ buffers for performance?

quietly change the encoded quality from 80 to 90?

were they TRYING to make the PixelKnot images detectable on 1/7?

did it not work so so then they made the change on 2/10 to remove the the JFIF header?

I was hoping that the quality that the image was encoded with was written to the file, unfortunately that's not the case. I think the header removal change is all we need for now anyways.

The road is steep from here though, something tells me they aren't going to use a complex password, and I have a feeling that the password will unlock many images.

before 2/10/2017 pixelknot f5 encryption layer had a fixed password of abcdefg123

it was ALWAYS possible to detect a pixelknot image, the method just changed on 2/10/17

there might be .jpg with JFIF header out there that can recognized with f5.jar with the password abcdefg123

Very nice finds.

So yes, the filenames are reversed, and perhaps the images are as well.

Try flipping the images horizontally before trying to extract the data from them.

As for what the passwords are.. try the filename without any number appended to the end, both regular and reversed.

Let me know if that works for you… I still haven't found a way to test these out on my own computer.. MacOS.

Anyone know of a way? If so then I can help.

Actually I'm not sure if flipping the image changes the ability to extract data from it or not - that would be the first thing to test with an image we already know has data and already know the password to.

Alright I am testing now.

I can confirm that flipping a test image horizontally (or doing anything to it) breaks the stenography. But putting it back in place, or back the right way even after saving makes it work again.

So flipping the images could be the right way to go.

Another thing I found online:

mention of f5 in clinton emails

"nf weder 1 noch 3"

its in the source code for huffman

Alright guys I played around with it more. I learned that if you get near the actual password with f5.jar, it starts spitting out some bytes of data and extracting some stuff instead of giving nothing.

With this attached image (I flipped it horizontally) and a password of BwlDP I was able to extract some nonsense data. I think it means we are getting close, but I don't have pixelknot in order to try actually getting the real message out.

I'm not able to get a clean file out that says "pixelknot v1.0 password required" etc.

Will update.

And it is before the header change.

So we have now established that stegdetect gives false positives, and all medium.com JPEGs meet the other criteria.

A new approach is needed. Perhaps focus less on finding PixelKnot images and more on Q's images.

I had posted to this thread, but my post appears to have mysteriously (?) gone missing.

I mentioned to factor in symbols from international keyboards (£, euro sign), dusting off old hardware to assist in brute-forcing, and divying up tasks between yourselves (and let each other know) so you're not all trying to brute force the same issue.

It's curious my suggestions on ways to improve the efficiency of detecting PixelKnot 'magically disappeared', given no other post I've written so far has.


ee4cfa  No.2401556

Oh yeah, don't forget to factor in unicode (if the password supports it and isn't just ASCII). Most format common is UTF-8 (non-BOM), and would exponentially increase the number of characters you'd need to check before solving.

But I digress.

How much you wanna bet half-chan is doing the same thing? We shouldn't have announced our finds so publicly. Now we can't scrape pages to find more such images. That spoils all my fun.

I discovered this while testing a python script to scrape and quickly check all the images on a page. It detected 36 images on this page on one test and none on a subsequent test without changing anything in that section of code. They must be checking and reencoding old images when accessed.

Here is my code to scrape and scan a chan and forum type sites (anything without fancy-shmancy frames or JS). Doesn't work on Pinterest, Instagram, Medium, etc.

I don't know what good it will do now that the word is out about how easy it is to find this kind of stenago. Damnit. If we find another way to detect such hidden messages let's swap PGP keys and discuss it privately.

It's not just the missing header. The first 139 bytes of nearly every file in Medium is identical.

The "James" that wrote the JPEG encoder in f5.jar and PK used to sell/license that same code. It may have found it way into the Medium back end. And it's conceivable that someone annoyed by the default comment that it normally produces got a little over zealous when they went in to shut-up that section and also commented out the JFIF part.

Alternately, Medium is know to be badguy territory. Maybe they either use stegano extensively. Or perhaps they know that PK images are easily recognizable and are intentionally sowing innocuous images with same signature to create cover for people using PK.

I will verify this myself here soon, I believe this is a huge discovery.

So imageboard must reference the original uploaded file in the database for the site. Likely , someone has written some script to re-encode/change headers of all the jpg files that have been uploaded.

I know when I uploaded my PK image it didn't have the header, and now it does! I believe this is going to be the case for every stego file on 4&8.

This is a potential huge FU to all of us, this is why we archive offline, but it means that we cannot pass jpgs around on here since the headers (at least) have been changed or the files have been re-encoded.

IF this is indeed the case the question is why?

It is a PNG image instead of a JPEG though, it would not have F5 in it (if anything). The contents could have been scrubbed already but uploaded a ZIP file. https://anonfile.com/c90fCef1b5/img.zip

There is an image called goods.jpg (pw: qanon) - that was extracted previously (not by me). Something tells me the image that was uploaded then, is no longer the same as it is now.

This refers back to >> 2408637, when I uploaded this other pick and re-downloaded it, it still has the header.

This likely means that some script was run around Tuesday sometime, that altered the images stored here and would have had to be done by someone on the back end. So if anyone was able to decode any images earlier in the bread, and have the source files (before they were uploaded), could verify that there was changes done on the back-end to those files that would be great.

If the files were re-encoded then the stego is gone, and that is a huge blow to finding more images here and on half-chan. (I'm assuming the same was done on half too)

I think Evil Eye one is a false positive. Steg detection works by finding what should be sharp lines and checking for if they are not. A image like this has no business ever being encode with JPEG. You get too much buzzing around the sharp edges.

I just manufactured a test image as closely as I could to the a1 file using a PNG of the same logo at high rez and GIMP and quality 70. Stegdetect -t F gives me 1.711036. I think it's because if the very similar buzzing you see when you zoom in (use Pix, it doesn't smooth pixels).

Step 2: Decompressed the stego image.

Step 3: Crop the image by 4ҳ4 column from all sides.

Step 4: Apply blurring operation to remove artifacts.

Step 5: Then re- compressed the image. (using quantization parameters from step 1)

Step 6: Count the different histogram value for the stego image and cover image.

Step 7: Calculate the difference

Difference = stego image value – cover image value.

* images made by the version after 2/10/17 (on play store) are missing the JFIF header (a few websites like medium.com match the same signature, not sure why) and are decoded with the last 1/3 of the full password

Beyond 4 chars we are going to have to get a lot smarter with how we pick what passwords to try. It not hard to imaging a 20 char passphrase.

One way to do this is to try the endings of long dictionary world and short words with a space and short random prefix. Then run the same set through 1337 speak substitutions. And then add ending punctuations.

Another idea I had is to score perspective random passwords based on the combinatorial frequency of character pairs. "TH" is more common than "ZD". We could have crunch generate a 100, 000 times as many passwords as we could directly check and then filter them down to the top 99.999th percentile.

Obviously the optimizing it from the start would be better. But I don't think I'm smart enough to work out all of the patterns in how people chooses passwords and phrases or to build a highly optimized generator (I could eventually, but I'm not going to spend the rest of my life on this).

In the short term we could keep a file of all failed password. Diff might get awfully bogged down comparing TB scale sets. But if the archive is kept asciibetically presorted then a custom tool could be it efficiently enough for it to be worthwhile.

SecureRandom basically works by taking the password, hashing it with SHA1 to set the initial state (160 bits, 20 bytes), passing these bytes out as requested, and rehashing the state to create a new state when it runs out of bytes. It does this as many times as needed to create as many psudorandom bytes as requested.

This data is first used to shuffle a list of integers (0 to the number of DCT coefficents, which is also happens to be the number of pixels) which is used as a secret treasure map to scatter bits the message throughout the image. Further output of SecureRandom acts as a simple XOR cypher upon the payload message.

Without the password we don't even know which bit of what pixels and in what order contain the encrypted message. We are not even sure there IS a message. It could just be a wonky JPEG encoder.

Any kind of REAL cryptanalysis, linear or differential, is waayyyyy out of our league. And the password is always going to be the weakest part of the system. Efficient and smart password guessing is really the only option.

Thanks for the reply. I noticed the message byte XOR with a random byte after the fact, so yea I don't think we can reconstruct the first steps of 'the map'. If we are to take the brute force approach tho, I would suggest we patch F5.jar to short circuit if the first message byte doesn't come out as expected. We can also make it retry different passwords without reloading too to save some more time (instead of decompressing the image over and over again, reading disk, etc). Just some ideas.

That is exactly what I did immediately.

Lines 147 to 149. I also early abort if the 32bit message length comes out as an unreasonable number. It should never be more then a couple kilobytes.

BruteCrackPK.java. Give it a file and feed it lines through STDIN. I haven't got around to multithreading it. So just run it in four terminals.

When ( if ) I ever stop getting distracted by side projects, I intend to make a C based implementation. There are a lot of steps between the five state integers in the SHA algo and the permutation table could be trimmed down.

With PixelUnknot code, is this kind of the workflow it's taking?

get wordlist string ~ "lovely8unch0fcoconut$"

test last third string "oconut$" in e.extract(coeff, ostream, extractF5Seed(mPassword))

if matched, test DecryptWithPassword with string "lovely8unch0fcoconut$"

return secret message

else, get new wordlist string

or ist it doing this?

get wordlist string1 ~ "oconut$"

test string1 "oconut$" in e.extract(coeff, ostream, extractF5Seed(mPassword))

if matched, crunch wordlist string2 with 2x length of string "oconut$" ~ "lovely8unch0fc"

test DecryptWithPassword with string "lovely8unch0fc"+"oconut$"

return secret message

else get new string2

else get new string1

right now the code

https://github.com/banona/PixelUnknot/blob/master/src/q/Main.java

loads the words from the file and tries it (and every substring of the end over 3 chars) to decode the f5 layer. it early exits if the chars don't match the PixelKnot special string '—-*' and if it finds one it will print out the pass and exit. this would be the last 1/3 of the password and we can change the code back to try to decode the rest

this code is a little better, tries the word backward and forward and prints out the progress

Neither. For detecting F5 it's analyzing the DCT histogram of the image in comparison to the (predicted) histogram of the original image before F5 data was embedded.

CM has been doing that here too, but without changing the filenames. After we found a easy way to spot the products of the weird JPEG encoder used by PixelKnot (hash the first 100 bytes) images posted here with that characteristic started being reencoded behind the scenes. 4Chan has probably heard by now and is doing the same.

FYI - CM / 8ch is NOT altering originals.

It's CloudFlare. When snagging the originals gotta make sure to bust the caching front ends.

A simple "?13245123" or something random at the end of the filename will help.

Also: curl -H -vvvv is your friend.

Finally: the jpeg header hex signature isn't a 100% guarantee it's PixelKnot. All it says is that the image has been through some sort of image editing tool.

It has been totally reencoded. It's not a case of them appending a few bytes.

8chan uses the SHA256 sums of files when they're uploaded to uniquely identify them. Grab a random file from around here and check it. The SHA256 hash of the above impostor is now

They would never just stick extra bytes onto the end of a file. And they have no reason to "bust the cache" for guaranteed uniquely named static content. It's only files missing their JFIF headers that are mysteriously changing.

Curious. The originals have all been restored.

Anyway, this thing seems to have fizzled. There is a legitimate explanation for all of the spoopyness that we have been examining. It's coming from Medium's weird backend image resizing code. They appear to be using the same funky Java-based encoder library from the late '90s that's only other use was in the F5 stegano demo code, also from the late '90s, which is what PixelKnot is based around.

So I think I might switch teams and instead work on patching all the problems with F5 and PixelKnot. ;)

Very strange indeed. The fuckery occurred on Tuesday July 31st. I believe the following day I uploaded an image here and downloaded it the following day, and it was unchanged from the OG (still had PK header – missing JIFF). The following days I downloaded an image that I had uploaded prior to the 'fuckery', and it had the JIFF header (and wasn't a PK file). I just downloaded the same image now, and it's been restored and is the same as the one I uploaded prior to the 'fuckery' on July 31st.

Hard to know if all the files have returned to the originals, maybe some of the F5 files that had important messages were never restored.

I think we should work on a distributed BF tool, would be great if it could be done is JS, so we can have people just visit a website and have it go. There is a f5 JS stego, but it's not compatible with this one, but perhaps it could be altered to be compatible.

Agreed. If we are to continue then we should focus on the SS photo. And we should look beyond PK and F5. Other stegano programs may leave telltale traces on the structure of their output JPEGs that could help narrow the search for the right method.

As far as I know this (pic related) is the original SS file. It was being passed around early and it's size matches the 4Chan screen caps.

We can tell that they are originals if their SHA256 hash matches the links in archived threads (8chan hashes all uploaded files and uses that hash on the back end as a easy way to eliminate redundancy what the same memes keep getting uploaded numerous times). I haven't noticed links to the file_store ever changing, not even what the files stored under a given hash have changed.

…because we don't know what software was used… or if there is even anything there.

Q linked to the PixelKnot app. PK leaves behind a very distinctive signature in the JPEG file that does not exist in the Sarah Silverman pic. So either 1) it's a modified version of PK made to fix its weaknesses, it's and entirely different program, or there is no hidden data and Q was simply citing PK as an example of the sort of thing that is widely uses on the Chans.

If there is an expectation that were are to crack this thing then we are going to need more clues.

Really? The random series generation is pretty straight forward. But the permutation stage is all out-of-order memory access. And the decrypt stage is very heavy in conditional branching.

It doesn't look like spidering through chan sites looking for PK images is going to work. 8chan has started reencoding again. And I tested halfchan: they don't fully reencode, but do add the missing JFIF header. Game forums are likely going to be the same way.

So until Q points at a image and says, "This pic contains a hidden message and was used by No Name to arrange a weapons sale. Have at it boys!" then I don't think there is anything left for us to do with this.

I know that I was that first person to open the Raid image link because the file I got, the first time, matched its hash and was without its JFIF header. 8chan's reencoding appears to be triggered after a file is first accessed.

For us to be successful in eavesdropping on the badguys' comms we need three things: Software, Image, and Password.

If we have a password then we can crawl image boards and game forums and try it against a millions of images. If We are given a single image with assurances from on high that it is a target then we can try billions of passwords. But we cannot try billions of passwords against millions of images. That is simply beyond the resources of a few guys with desktops. And we can't do anything if we don't have access to the same software that they are using. Q pointed to PixelKnot. But that could have been merely an example. The C_A would likely have developed their own stego system; and this could have been shared with their civilians cohorts.

But even if we assume on variable we cannot solve for the remaining two with the resources available. It would require an awful lot of luck. If any wizards or warlocks would like to give us a hint, they have my PGP key (they also have the secret key that I use for this. I emailed it to myself knowing there is nothing yummier to the NSA's systems than a PGP secret key packet transmitted in the clear).

The only stone left for me to turn over is this variant of the F5 algo I found on GitHub:

https://desudesutalk.github.io/f5stegojs/

https://github.com/desudesutalk/desudesutalk/wiki/How-to-use-this-script

While testing various stego programs with long and short messages in large and small files in search of clues to how the SS pic might be encoded, F5steg.js stood out. I've never written a line of JavaScript in my life. But perusing the code, it looks like it's doing basically the same thing as the baseline F5 algo. So it's strange that stegdetect can barely catch a whiff of it, even when a image is loaded to max payload capacity. I found that stegdetect can find F5 even with very sort messages in very large files. (passwords "redhead" and "pepe"). I haven't worked out yet what F5steg.js is doing so differently to evade detection. But given that this is specifically designed for image boards and is available as a browser plugin I think we should find a way to detect its handywork and make an efficient cracking program similar to the one for PK/baselineF5.

There is also a Steg tool called Outguess. It is a linux command line tool. Not sure if anyone here has tried to use it to find stuff on pictures here…

Wait a sec… all you are checking for is that they are either missing the normal JFIF header, or have the normal header and are encoded with a 94% quantification table, like the SS pic. Then you check to see that they have the standard Huffman tables from the JPEG spec that is used by 99.9% of all the color JPEGs in existence.

But PK is hardcoded to always encode at 90%. And 4chan's JPEG recombobulator does not change the compression quality.

94% is not a number that a developer would hardcode as a default. That is a number from someone moving a GUI slider when exporting an image from Photoshop or GIMP. So if there is stego in the SS pic then it was done with a program that does not change the quality level.

You are forcing a match on the Sarah Silverman pic without explaining why that DQT is indicative of PixelKnot.

uploaded q4example to halfchan and inspected what was the same, the order and location of the DQT and huffman table along some bytes of the huffman table

waiting on your improved version ;)

We can't tell with the naked eye. Re-encoding for whatever reason would do that. Have you checked that ONLY the non-zero AC coefficients have changed? If any DC coeff is different or if any AC coeff was was zero is non-zero, or vise versa, then you are looking at a false positive.

I'd take up the torch if I still believed this was feasible. But we have too many unknowns to solve for.

We can test a known password against millions of pics from image boards. Or we can try a billion passwords against a (confidently) known target image. But when trying to solve both unknowns the problem size increases beyond what is feasible for two guys with high-end desktops.

Maybe JPB stood for something different than the cabal

The doc of SecureDrop assumes the Organization Hosting SecureDrop (in

this case FPF)

• The organization wants to preserve the anonymity of its sources.

• The organization acts in the interest of allowing sources to submit documents, regardless of the contents of these documents.

• The users of the system, and those with physical access to the servers, can be trusted to uphold the previous assumptions unless the entire organization has been compromised.

• The organization is prepared to push back on any and all requests to compromise the integrity of the system and its users, including requests to deanonymize sources, block document submissions, or hand over encrypted or decrypted submissions.

What if the above is assumed, but the assumption's incorrect?

I was thinking someone said reposting images here, changes the file, so then I thought we had to go outside the Chans to find the original… But if /pol is the point of data exchange, none of that makes sense. The only thing us new fags can offer you, is fresh perspective: brand new eyes. An eye for an eye is fine, if you give me yours and I give you mine.

Anyhoo… this whole thing is worth a read, but things start heating up in July (Coincidence? Pic related): https://8ch.net/pol/res/11847601.html#12010876

7/12: Syrian Electric Army

7/13: Coincidence pic: a sign? ID: adad33, def chosen.

7/15: Someone complaining about “gigantic pics about nothing”, says please stop in /crypto posts too. Did anyone find a correlation between file size?

7/22: “…most corrupt images have steg” = Good to know, anymore helpful tidbits floating around?

9/7: Post re: steg, poster ID: 000000, def chosen. Clearly someone with knowledge, lurking and checking images. Follow them? There are few real humans, choices limited. Also, this exchange almost seems scripted, dropping hints? The whole thread could be a set up, but who’s the trap set for? Us or them?

We’re trying to intercept black hat comms, right? They hang where it’s easy to mix with bots. Spot the difference, people are jaded and quick to dismiss. “How do you hide a message in clear sight?” Amongst other random images, possibly on a thread dedicated to such. These people are stupid, right? How do they get the password to each other? Always the same? I’d say try: JEWS, but that’s too easy. What’s one step up from “too stupid”? PW is file name?

Or else we’re being led to pol, to get the answers on HOW to crack the code/spot the images. Q doesn’t have to be “Q”, white hats have to have a way of being known too. Dark/Light, Mirror, blah blah blah… Haven’t gotten ahold of PK yet, handing off until then. If this is repeat info, super duper my bad. Am phonefag, hard to scroll. Using “find on page” tool to dig = annoying to the maxxxxx.

Step 1: Get pixel knot at App Store/Google Play?

Step 2: Try that buddah image I posted, with the pw as the image file name. (Save from the original, within the thread that I linked below)

Step 3: Go through /pol yourself and see if you find any images/ideas OR scroll through everybody else’s ideas.

Step 4: Throw anything, see what sticks. Much appreciated.

Non code fag here, apologize in advance if this is retarded. With the CBS logo. It should be pretty simple black and white. Can you overlay a "good" one and compare to the messaged one? Wouldn't there be differences in pixels from the "original" picture to the messaged picture? Can you test it by making a picture, putting in a simple message and comparing both.

Hello pixelfag anon steganon fresh out the psych ward ( that ntv world order post got me sonically targetted) bantz


09f21a  No.3468757

Been thinking about the pixel knot thing for a while. Non

code monkey/crypto fag.I am not sure you would need a

password to decrypt. I don't know alot of the language so it

may be rough in translation, I am more of a visual type.

Experiment: take a picture and run it through pixelknot.

Create new picture with the changes between the original and

the new pixelknot photo. This will create a template of the

changes to work with on the experiment. This may not be

necessary in the future, but it is a starting point. Run it

through an algorythm/formula and create a new pic. Do this

with 10K-100K algorythms.

It is my hypothesis that the static overlay will behave

slightly different than the hardcoded message. Maybe less

than 1/10th%. Create a program that looks for anomalies. A

couple of pixels in a straight line or curve. Overlay the

pics, all 10-100K and look for letters based on anomalies

that form possible letters in a stacked formation in the top

50% (or whatever).

I would liken it to creating waves in the picture and much

like looking for subs as the Chinese satelites are purported

to do with wave photographs. Or, like tuning into UHF, there

is alot of static, but you can see the words or image even

though it is not crystal clear. After doing this a few

hundred times, you may be able to analyze which algorythms

are more successful.

I don't know how much computing power that would take or if

anyone has that much. If this is viable, there is no need

to send anyone to knock on my door, I am just working on a

puzzle.

Admire you persistent Anons trying to crack the code.

Dunno if anybody has suggested fotoforensic.com yet. Not necessarily helpful for the PK problem, but good for checking if images have been altered in general. The tutorials/challenges page was super helpful, if you don’t know much about what to look for/what the data tells you.

I haven’t found any other threads on /pol that look promising besides “lost content”, which is pretty dead now. There was mention of “crypto posts”, but haven’t looked beyond /pol. Cryptofags, where y’all hang out?

Do you think after all is said and done, if we haven’t gotten it by then, Q will throw us a bone?!?! This feels like a puzzle, when your dog eats half the pieces.
