HPR4397: Transfer files from desktop to phone with qrcp

Hacker Public Radio ·

2025/06/10

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. How does it work? qrcp binds a web server to the address of your Wi-Fi network interface on a random port and creates a handler for it. The default handler serves the content and exits the program when the transfer is complete. When used to receive files, qrcp serves an upload page and handles the transfer. The tool prints a QR code that encodes the text: http://{address}:{port}/{random_path}

Topics I mentioned: encryption vs steganography who uses steganography and for
