Security News > 2023 > March > S3 Ep127: When you chop someone out of a photo, but there they are anyway…
They found this bug in the app on Google Pixel Phones that lets you take a screenshot, or a photo you've captured, and crop it, or blank out bits of it.
Google Pixel phones had a serious data leakage bug - here's what to do!
Lo and behold, at least the Windows 11 Snipping Tool turns out to have exactly the same bug.
This is a bug that could actually affect an awful lot of programs out there.
LAUGHS] Maybe if this concept is what it takes, then we should just have a Bug With An Impressive Name generator tool, that we could d put up on the Sophos website somewhere, and then any time somebody finds a bug, they could give it a name.
DUCK. Of course, when you create the theme tune, and then you crop it down to the neat 7-second sting, you need to be careful that you haven't left some unwanted audio data in the file due to the aCropalypse bug.
