The only webp exploits for which I can find articles are from 2023. Some new articles, but still about the 2023 exploit. Both in Chrome and in iOS.
The first step would be to see if the “PNG” file is actually a webp file. To see if what you’re saying is plausible.
However, if there were a new, unpatched webp exploit, there’s zero reason to spam users with DMs when you can just post the image in popular communities. It could be any image and there’d be no reason to keep sending images pretending to be a girl looking for friends.
It’s the links in the image which are important to the attacker. Originally they weren’t in the image and it was easy for admins to filter them out, so the attacker took the time to embed them in the image. This points to traditional catfishing and pig butchering as the attack.
Then again they could be playing 4D chess and masquerading the real attack as simple catfishing.
Update
Oh. My. God.

Ox000cbb7fcontains the word “Cum”!They’re trying to poison our minds!
It’s just a normal PNG file.
Thanks for the insight.
The article I read was recent - within the last week or so. Maddening that I can’t find it again. Should have bookmarked it.
Anyway, that all scans. Figured it was a possibility even if it wasn’t likely.
