The shortest and most straightforward answer to the question “Can Captcha Be Broken?” is “Yes”. Given sufficient time and effort, completely every single CAPTCHA implementation can be broken. This has been most significantly shown in the past by high-profile Captcha-breaking incidents such as the Ticketmaster, Yahoo and Microsoft Captcha cases (among others).
Image-based Captcha challenges are a fastener of web anti-spam protection, and for a reason. When executed properly, they are a minor speed-bump for human users, but keep various bots and automated scripts thunderstruck. If spammer naughtiness mandates such a “human interaction proof” in the first place, what could be easier and more natural for your visitors than simply looking at a picture and reading several characters? But this ease-of-use is based on a pretty big guess: that all visitors have perfect vision…

A complicated CAPTCHA-bypassing Android malware has been found docked in Google Play apps seeking to secretly subscribe thousands of users to premium-rate services.
Captcha is nothing, but a test to prove that the user is a human. The full form of Captcha is Completely Automated Public Turing Test to tell Computers and Humans Apart. For this process device like a laptop or desktop computer and the user is asked to complete the test. There are certain websites which ask the user for solve Captcha to make sure the user is human or a robot. This is just a security test which the user needs to solve to visit these kinds of websites. A simple Captcha asks the user to enter alphabets or digits from a vague image which is seen on the computer. Captcha test is actually performed to prevent spamming bots entering websites.
Captcha inputs are most common and most irritating experiences one can face on the internet. These Captcha’s are quite annoying for several people expect for the people who are visually disabled or people who depend on assistive technologies like screen readers to access the web.

Mori and Malik in the year 2003 cracked two early Captcha’s EZ-Gimpy and Gimpy with a refined object recognition algorithm. The success rates of cracking these Captcha’s were 33% and 92% respectively. EZ-Gimpy’s four kinds of Captcha’s with the same character features were broken by Chandavale. A.A.

The major problems that is faced with Captcha based submission verification system is the lack of accessible options; Captcha’s do not provide plain text for a simple reason that it gives a easy way to thwart the Captcha and thereby defeat the point of putting such a system in place.
