From Forgeries to Foundation Models: A Systematic Survey of Identity Document Attack and Detection
Identity document forgery has undergone a fundamental capability shift: generative AI tools now enable high-fidelity document synthesis and field-level manipulation with minimal technical expertise, while detection methods remain constrained by benchmarks that do not reflect this threat. The resulting attack surface spans physical presentation, digital injection, and fully generative synthesis, introducing distinct forensic failure modes that require a unified threat model and evaluation framework. This survey provides, to our knowledge, the first unified treatment of Presentation Attacks, Digital Injection Attacks, and GenAI-driven synthesis within a single identity verification threat m...
