The Cryptic Sound

Description

Elliot was working late at night when he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from his computer. At first, he thought it was just a glitch or some interference, but the sound kept repeating. Elliot felt a strange sense of unease and began to suspect that there might be a hidden message in the sound.

Flag Format: CHCTF{}

Given a WAV audio file that plays strange audio when played, we assume it contains Morse code.

We can decode it using Morse Audio Decoder website

Start The Dos

Description

Leon wants you to be a part of Agents of Havoc. He wants you to understand this software as old as hacking itself so as to fire a DoS Attack against whiterose’s targets. Help him before he suspects your intentions.

Given a file named dosser.s we can compile it using the following commands:

bash
$ nasm -f elf32 -o dosser.o dosser.s
$ ld -m elf_i386 -o dosser dosser.o
bash
$ file dosser
dosser: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped

After that, we can reverse the dosser ELF file using IDA Disassembler 32 bit. We will find a separate flag in the text segment stored in the al register.

The Beginning Of All

Description

I was working on my laptop when my laptop suddenly glitched. I discussed it with my friends and to our surprise we all had the same color glitch. I guess it has to do something with the odd behavior of the people around me.

Flag Format: CHCTF{}

Given an MP4 video file that we were able to play, I initially thought that the video was corrupted due to color issues. However, after gathering more information, I discovered that it was actually a Hexahue Alphabet code.
