This is useful for evading keyword-based and AI-assisted QR code phishing-specific detections. Partially released with an accompanying [blog post](https://flangvik.com/posts/2024-06-13-pixelless-qr-codes-with-qrucible/) at x33fcon 2024, with more features added during Defcon 32.\n\n## Install\n\n```\npip3 install -r requirements.txt\npython3 QRucible.py \n```\n\nFor pytesseract and the keyword obfuscation to work correctly, you may also need to install Tesseract OCR separately\n\nFor Ubuntu:\n\n```sh\nsudo apt-get install tesseract-ocr\n```\n\nFor macOS using Homebrew:\n```sh\nbrew install tesseract\n```\n\nFor Windows:\nDownload the Tesseract installer from [tesseract GitHub](https://github.com/UB-Mannheim/tesseract/wiki).\nRun the installer and follow the instructions.\n\n\n## Usage\n\n```\nusage: QRucible.py [-h] -u URL [-s SIZE] [-i INPUT] [-o OUTPUT] [--css] [--tables] [--eml] [--obfuscate OBFUSCATE [OBFUSCATE ...]]\n\nA tiny Python utility that generates \"imageless\" QR codes in various formats and obfuscates keywords in emails\n\noptions:\n  -h, --help            show this help message and exit\n  -u URL, --url URL     The URL to be encoded in the QR code.\n  -s SIZE, --size SIZE  The box size of the QR code. (default: 40)\n  -i INPUT, --input INPUT\n                        The input HTML (template) file, replaces the string QR_PLACEHOLDER with the QR code\n  -o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT\n                        The output path to an HTML or EML file.\n  --css                 Generate QR code using the CSS method.\n  --tables              Generate QR code using the table method. Default\n  --eml                 Generate an EML file instead of an HTML file.\n  --obfuscate OBFUSCATE [OBFUSCATE ...]\n                        Keywords to obfuscate by illustrating them as tables.\n```\n\n## CSS/Table QR Code Example\nThe below QR code is generated using HTML tables\n```\n.\\QRucible.py -u https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ -i '.\\MFA_QR_CODE _TEMPLATE.html' --tables --eml\n```\n\n![QRucible Example](example.png)\n\n\n## Keyword Obfuscation Example\nThe keywords marked in the email below are illustrated using tiny tables, not text, and will therefore confuse AI trying to understand context / bypass keyword flagging/detection.\n```\n.\\QRucible.py -u https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ -i '.\\MFA_QR_CODE _TEMPLATE.html' --tables --obfuscate QR mobile device MFA\n```\n\n![QRucible Example](example_keyword.png)\n# Credits\n\nCSS method is based on this example: https://codepen.io/jasonadelia/pen/DwWaNW","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fflangvik%2Fqrucible","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fflangvik%2Fqrucible","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fflangvik%2Fqrucible/lists"}
