Hi everyone,
I tried a lot of ideas but can’t solve the level yet.
As for now I stuck at blur method. I can’t blur example.png image to get example_blur.png image. They are alike, but differ.

Well I solved the other captcha levels except this one. Difficult to write down my approaches here, because I don’t want to spoil things.

I’m thinking that I need to use some deconvolution algorithm. But the same as PNTSTR describes, you don’t know the used blur method and therefor you don’t know the PSF. Blind deconvolution could be an option but had no succes with it. I’m using python3 and opencv 3.x.x.

Can somebody give me a hint were to look?

I have a hint for you.
Think about how this captcha generated on server side everytime. We know that this web-application write using PHP.
Before I finish this level I wrote the page, that can generate exactly the same captchas like here.

Not sure everybody knows that, I thought people had to guess it?

@charter, if you could solve the previous captcha levels then I’m sure you’ll get this one very soon. Just don’t overthink it!
