I'm experiencing the same issue with the latest Netbox 4.2.4 running on Netbox Docker 3.2.0. Some other plugins, as well as the Netbox Ansible modules, are also having trouble with the version string (e.g. 4.2.4-Docker-3.2.0) in Docker releases based on various open issues I found.

This comment suggests a temporary workaround for the topology views plugin. You can adapt that workaround for the QR code plugin, too. Add the line below to your Dockerfile-Plugins file right after the line with pip install:
RUN sed -i 's/settings\.VERSION/settings\.RELEASE\.version/g' /opt/netbox/venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/netbox_qrcode/template_content.py

I submitted a pull request for this plugin (#96) that implements the same fix I'm seeing applied to other plugins.
