I don't think a bot could get this kind of vandalism. Using a page blanking bot could be nice but most work has to be done by humans.
I am happy to notice when I am patrolling new edits I get a often a edit conflict with somebody else that is also reverting the vandalism. But I am afraid not everything can be found while paroling.
Does Flagged Revisions also works on images?

I'm not sure how familiar you are with anti-vandal bots, but English Wikipedia has several such bots that do an excellent job. ClueBot, for example, would have easily caught that vandalism. We have a lot of coders who would be willing to run such a bot on Commons, with modifications if necessary.
