HR doesn’t like to be put in situations where they might be accused of discrimination. If you put a headshot on your resume you are going to get it thrown out. The only exception is something like modeling.
Not hr but I screen a lot of applications. It’s very common to see photos and we don’t throw these out. If someone wants to see what you look like it’s a 10s search unless you’ve really gone out of your way to keep a low profile.
You also have an ethical problem, but if someone wants to put their picture on their CV in most cases it’s up to them. It’s a common practice, and I think very few places would “throw them out” without prior explicit instruction to not include a photo.

If you are looking up what people look like before deciding on an interview then you have a legal problem.

Your use of ‘CV’ indicates you may not be from the US. These things are pretty cut and dry here.
Where is “HR” a scientific field?
