Title
Data Hiding Based On Mini Program Code
Abstract
A mini program code (also known as sunflower code) comes with WeChat mini program APPs. With the popularization of mini program APPs, mini program codes have become more and more widely used. As a new carrier, the study of information hiding technology based on mini program code is of great significance for the expansion of covert communication carriers and can also deal with security problems in advance. At present, to the best of our knowledge, there is no steganographic research based on mini program codes. In this paper, we propose a scheme to embed secret information into mini program codes for the first time. After studying the construction of mini program codes, a coordinate system is constructed to represent its module coordinates. Then, a binary stream of the secret message is embedded into the encoding region or the edge patch. Experiments show that the proposed data hiding scheme is effective and feasible. The embedded secret message could be extracted while keeping the readability of the mini program code. Moreover, the secret payloads of the encoding region and the edge patch for the V-36 mini program code are 72 bits and 29 bits, respectively.
