#steghide: Steganography tool for hiding text in image and audio files
This application is ancient (see: SourceForge) but it is still maintained by the Kali linux community and is available via common package management sources (apt etc).
While I don't have any common use case for this, I always thought the idea was neat. Basically, use the tool and a password (shared secret) to embed a message within the bits of an image or audio file. Unless you know something is in the file, the message is well disguised. On the other end, use the tool and the shared secret to extract the message. Voila! You're doing #Steganography .
Bonus puzzle: See if you can figure out which files on this page have a hidden message, using the password "somethingsecret": https://coreysnipes.com/media-test.html
