   Has anyone scraped git repos with embedded graphics files to verify whether any of them have undisplayed embedded data of suspicious complexity?

     @mjg59 I've got at least two repos (of different methods!) of code to put binary files inside PNGs, so I'd definitely like to know if anyone is looking.

     @mjg59 it's not terribly hard to do, probably won't be spotted by regular file scanners, and could easily be done in parallel across multiple accounts for more space if that becomes a limit.
