In the field of quantum cryptography, specifically in the context of quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols, the prepare and measure protocol is widely used. This protocol involves the transmission of laser pulses, which are used to encode quantum information. However, a security vulnerability arises when these laser pulses contain multiple photons. This vulnerability is known
