LSB Encoding

CLI application that hides(embeds) texts inside images

Inspired by: CryptoTheLlama Youtube Video

Installation:

If you have go environment:

go get github.com/DavudSafarli/LSB-encoding

If your added GOPATH/bin to PATH env variable, you should be able to use LSB-encoding command

If you don't:

Just download the executable from inside repository files, and place it wherever you want

How it works:

embedding a secret inside image:

LSB-encoding.exe embed -text "this is a secret text" -path "./image-path-to-embed.png"

creates a new image with <image-path-to-embed_embedded.png> in the same directory

extracting secret from image:

LSB-encoding.exe extract -path "./image-path-to-embed_embedded.png"

prints the secret hidden inside the image

Sidenote

embedding only works with PNG images, because JPG images are compressed and pixel values are modified by decoding algorithms
