Digital camera identification is a very active research area, with important applications in the forensics field. Several approaches have been proposed in recent years for this task. One of the most promising is based on the estimation of the sensor noise pattern, used as a sort of camera fingerprint. However, a clever attacker can estimate a camera fingerprint and use it maliciously: this calls for new countermeasures, and so on, in a typical two-party game. In this paper we consider the triangle test, a well-know countermeasure against fake fingerprint attacks, and propose a new algorithm for improving the attacker's success rate. Numerical experiments show that, in typical scenarios, the proposed algorithm improves significantly the attacker performance.
