Thankfully her 17-year-old brother hasn't got into any trouble... what? what the hell has that got to do with anything? he was involved in some way? or maybe you're the kind of parent that pits children against one another.
as it is there's not enough information in your question to make any reasonable answer.
ask your daughter the situation... then post a sensible question

hello angela , your daughter is probably just curious to know if her body is the same as other girls her age. many parents in your situation couldn't talk to they're child about this but i think thats what is most needed now try not to embarrass her because im sure shes had enough of that and one more thing if she has issues about her sexuality then she'l tell you hope my advise helps .s.

Well...
This behavior is a total violation of the other girls privacy. But you need to handle this topic delicately so that you don't cause permenant damage to your daughter,
Purhaps she is attracted to girls and is aroused by these photo's, she is after all, only 14, and at the age when hormones are a BIG factor.
However, it may just have been a prank, maybe there's a girl she was upset and and wanted to "get back ar her" in this way?
You need to brouch the subject gently, chances are, your daughter is already ashamed and humiliated enough, best bet it to approuch this in a non-accusing manner and simply ask her why she felt she needed to do that.
Explain how it's a violation of the trust and privacy of the other girls, and see what she says so you know how to approuch this next time.
