Decoded: QRL Jacking - The Hacker's QR Code Backdoor by Edward Henriquez


Listen Later

"Decoded: The Cybersecurity Podcast" features Edward Henriquez, a hacker, explaining QRL Jacking. This technique exploits QR code-based logins found in apps like WhatsApp Web by tricking users into scanning a malicious code. The attacker clones the login page, lures the victim, and upon scanning, gains immediate session access, bypassing passwords and multi-factor authentication. Henriquez outlines the attack steps, tools used like QRLJacker, real-world examples, and defensive strategies such as short-lived QR codes and user education. The podcast episode emphasizes that QRL Jacking is a stealthy and effective social engineering attack that many organizations are unprepared for.
