Block Uploads of Adult or Nude Images using PHP.

I found an interesting and useful class file in phpclasses.org, that helps to detect image nudity based on skin pixel score developed by Bakr Alsharif from Egypt. I had integrated this with my previous tutorial Ajax image upload with Jquery and PHP, sure this code helps you to block adult or nudity images.

Block Uploads of Adult or Nude Images using PHP.



Download Script     Live Demo

Sample database design for Users.

Users
Contains user details username, password and email etc.
CREATE TABLE `users` (
`uid` int(11) AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
`username` varchar(255) UNIQUE KEY,
`password` varchar(100),
`email` varchar(255) UNIQUE KEY
)

Sample values.
INSERT INTO `users`
(`uid`, `username`, `password`, `email`)
VALUES
('1', '9lessons', MD5('password'), '[email protected]');

Javascript Code
$("#photoimg").on('change',function(){})- photoimg is the ID name of INPUT FILE tag and $('#imageform').ajaxForm() - imageform is the ID name of FORM. While changing INPUT it calls FORM submit without refreshing page using ajaxForm() method. Uploaded images will <i>prepend</i> inside <i>#preview</i> tag.
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/
ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.wallform.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
{

$('#photoimg').on('change', function()
 {
var A=$("#imageloadstatus");
var B=$("#imageloadbutton");

$("#imageform").ajaxForm({target: '#preview',
beforeSubmit:function(){
A.show();
B.hide();
},
success:function(){
A.hide();
B.show();
},
error:function(){
A.hide();
B.show();
} }).submit();
});

});
</script>
Here hiding and showing #imageloadstatus and #imageloadbutton based on form upload submit status.

index.php
Contains simple PHP and HTML code. Here $session_id=1 means user id session value.
<?php
include('db.php');
session_start();
$session_id='1'; // User login session value
?>
<div id='preview'>
</div>
<form id="imageform" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action='ajaximage.php'>
Upload image: 
<div id='imageloadstatus' style='display:none'><img src="loader.gif" alt="Uploading...."/></div>
<div id='imageloadbutton'>
<input type="file" name="photoimg" id="photoimg" />

</div>
</form>


ajaximage.php
Contains PHP code. This script helps you to upload images into uploads folder. Image file name rename into timestamp+session_id.extention
<?php
include('db.php');
session_start();
$session_id='1'; // User session id
$path = "uploads/";

function getExtension($str)
{
$i = strrpos($str,".");
if (!$i)
{
return "";
}
$l = strlen($str) - $i;
$ext = substr($str,$i+1,$l);
return $ext;
}

$valid_formats = array("jpg", "png", "gif", "bmp","jpeg","PNG","JPG","JPEG","GIF","BMP");
if(isset($_POST) and $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST")
{
$name = $_FILES['photoimg']['name'];
$size = $_FILES['photoimg']['size'];
if(strlen($name))
{
$ext = getExtension($name);
if(in_array($ext,$valid_formats))
{
if($size<(1024*1024)) // Image size max 1 MB
{
//---Image Filter Code
require_once('class.ImageFilter.php');
$filter = new ImageFilter;
$score = $filter->GetScore($_FILES['photoimg']['tmp_name']);
if(isset($score))
{
if($score >= 60) // Score value If more than 60%, it consider as adult image. 
{
echo "Image scored ".$score."%, It seems that you have uploaded a nude picture :-(";
}
else
{
//---Image Filter Code 
$actual_image_name = time().$session_id.".".$ext;
$tmp = $_FILES['photoimg']['tmp_name'];
if(move_uploaded_file($tmp, $path.$actual_image_name))
{
mysqli_query($connection,"UPDATE users SET profile_image='$actual_image_name' WHERE uid='$session_id'");
echo "<img src='uploads/".$actual_image_name."' class='preview'>";
}
else
echo "failed";
//---Image Filter Code 
}
}
//---Image Filter Code 
}
else
echo "Image file size max 1 MB";
}
else
echo "Invalid file format..";
}
else
echo "Please select image..!";
exit;
}
?>

db.php
Database configuration file, just modify database credentials.
<?php
error_reporting(0);
define('DB_SERVER', 'localhost');
define('DB_USERNAME', 'username');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DB_DATABASE', 'database');
$connection = @mysqli_connect(DB_SERVER,DB_USERNAME,DB_PASSWORD,DB_DATABASE);
?>

  6. Nice but not enough! Based on skin color. It seems we can change the score value. How about BW pictures? Or portrait photos?

  19. The code works perfectly fine at localhost. However the same code at the server seems like stuck into an infinite for loop and I just see the loading image.

    ReplyDelete
  22. really a great post. thanks for sharing this great post

  23. Great script! I like the concept but before reading others' comments. I feared it would have issues with portraits, but together with other validation checks, or even administrator intervention, it would be excellent.
    As for user being able to upload malicious script by changing file extension, use file mime type for validation. Eg.
    if ($sourceFile_type == 'application/octet-stream'){ -- File is executed, deny upload -- }
    if ($sourceFile_type == 'image/jpeg'){ -- File is GENUINE JPEG, Allow upload -- }
    User would not be able to fool php to upload any format other than what you accept.

  26. Does anyone have a script which can block Malware, Virus and corrupt jpeg image from uploading on your server.?

    ReplyDelete
  27. For corrupt image, u may check for file size like if ($imgfileSize == "0"){ ...Uploaded file corrupted or missing } though this wouldn't detect an image that is partially corrupted or whose data string is truncated. A partially corrupted file may b complicated at times coz it may b fine apart from having a potion of img replaced by plain color (uniform pixels) which to software cld b the same as the sky, or a plain wall so this may require human discretion to verify.

  28. I tested this with photos of different skin tone, and the darker the person the more it made it through. I also tested this with a photo of an Egyptian desert and it was blocked.
