You can look into Cloudflare's CSAM setting, but I'm not exactly sure what it does.

I don't understand how a web host is legally responsible for what their users post as long as there's active moderation removing it in a timely manner.

You are correct, there is safe harbor provisions on the matter. There is a legal responsibility to report and store the content securely when it is reported as an admin.

FYI in USA the law CDA section 230 only preempts state law but not federal law. If something which is federally illegal lands on your server you need to deal with it ASAP
