A CAPTCHA implementation based on identifying emojis
This was exclusively developed to be used in Telegram, but might be used anywhere else.
-
The client sends an HTTP request to the server.
-
The server returns a generated photo that has 6 emojis inside it, along with:
-
A custom header called
x-emojis
that includes the code points of the six emojis in the photo plus 2 random ones in hex, shuffled, splitted by ";", and the parts of each of them splitted by "-". -
A custom header called
x-correct-emojis
that only includes the code points of the 6 emojis in the photo.
-
-
The client displays the photo returned by the server, along with the emojis provided in the
x-emojis
in a way the user can pick them. -
The client compares the first six emojis that the user picked with
x-correct-emojis
.
This wouldn't be possible without the inspirations from the CAPTCHA system at @PyrogramLounge.
