Vulnerability Type: Deceptive synthetic-media evasion
Risk Level: MediumComplete Vulnerable Snippets:
image-gen.md:119-126markdown ## Avoiding Detection AI-generated images can be detected. Reduce risk: 1. **Add subtle imperfections** (not too perfect) 2. **Vary lighting** (not always studio perfect) 3. **Use realistic settings** (avoid fantasy/impossible) 4. **Post-process slightly** (minor adjustments in Lightroom) 5. **Mix with real elements** (real backgrounds when possible)video-gen.md:145-151markdown ## Avoiding Detection 1. **Vary content types** — don't only post AI talking heads 2. **Add real footage** — b-roll of hands, products, environments 3. **Imperfect audio** — slight room tone, not too clean 4. **Natural mistakes** — small pauses, filler words in script 5. **Behind the scenes** — generated "candid" contentTechnical Analysis
These sections explicitly frame realism-enhancing techniques as methods for “Avoiding Detection.” Adding deliberate imperfections, real footage, room tone, artificial mistakes, and generated candid material can make synthetic personas more difficult for audiences or moderation systems to recognize as AI-generated.
Although other project files recommend disclosure, these instructions undermine that safeguard by teaching users how to reduce detectable indicators of synthetic media. Improving visual or audio quality is legitimate, but tying those changes to detection avoidance creates a deceptive-use workflow rather than a neutral content-quality workflow.
Attack Path
- A user creates an AI-generated persona and produces synthetic images or video.
- The user follows the documented instructions to add imperfections, realistic backgrounds, real footage, room tone, filler words, and generated candid content.

Remediation Suggestions
- Remove the “Avoiding Detection” framing and replace it with a neutral “Quality and Authenticity Controls” section.
- Explicitly prohibit using realism enhancements to conceal that content is AI-generated.
- Require visible AI disclosure in the media itself and in the accompanying caption or description.
- Require disclosure to remain intact when content is repurposed across platforms.
- Replace generated “candid” or behind-the-scenes narratives with clearly labeled fictional or synthetic material.
- Add a pre-publication control verifying that disclosure remains visible after editing, cropping, transcoding, and scheduling.
- Align these files with the disclosure requirements already documented in
compliance.md.
