Specter I — OSINT

L7 — Reverse Image & Synthetic Media Detection

1200 pts+100 first-blood bonus—
First Blood: @pandagfx

Mission

Authenticate one reference photo, four candidate photos and one candidate video against eight forensic axes (Yandex face cluster, Google Lens scene, TinEye exact-match, Bing narrative context, lighting cone, Daugman iris, C2PA registry, lipsync bilabial alignment). One candidate is adversarially perturbed to defeat spectral checks — iris + lighting cone are the gate.

Why this matters in 2026

Disinfo and deepfakes flood every modern OSINT investigation. Knowing which forensic axes survive adversarial inputs is the 2026 baseline — the easy ones (spectral, EXIF) are already defeated by off-the-shelf generators.

Password: locked — solve L6 first. After submission the per-player SSH password for this level becomes available here (different string from the flag itself).

Each connection spawns a fresh ephemeral container — no shared shell, no cross-player residue. Disconnect tears it down.
