Cool Brazillian based CTF which I haven’t played before. One of the remarkable things about this CTF was the sheer number and breadth of challenges we could go for. They had everything from Electronics to Crypto to Reversing to Physics and Programming challenges! For this one we finished in 10th place so I am very happy with our team work!
BCTF 2016 - HSAB - Misc Category Challenge
What a fun challenge. I’ve heard of some very simple solutions after I solved it but I’m fairly certain this way is the intended solution.
Codegate 2016 - Combination Pizza - Web Challenge
Who doesn’t love Pizza? Well actually I can’t stand cheese but whatever, this challenge was fun but also quite easy. I started with standard recon, looking for low hanging fruit. I stumbled across the “blog” subsection of the website where there was a hint of a possible test point.
Boston Key Party 2016 - lily.flac - Misc
Sorry but this challenge was not solved by me during the competition but afterwards I came to know the solution by way of IRC and wanted to document it in case I forget. It was only worth 2 points but was solved by very few teams during the competition. Normally I don’t let this bug me but I missed these obvious things so I’ll share them with others so we don’t make such mistakes next time ![]()
