On the Security of Reversible Data Hiding in Encrypted Images by MSB Prediction

摘要

The reversible data hiding in encrypted images by MSB prediction of P. Puteaux and W. Puesch not only provides high embedding bit-rates, but also entails a very low mathematical complexity. This correspondence investigates its security and shows flaws in embedding imperceptibility, unauthorized detection/removal of embedded data and unauthorized access to image content. Secure solutions are discussed.
