RCTF 2018 writeups

Binary file is encrypting string by using a function on each char that produces int (as seen in sub_80488E0, sub_804868B). This encryption is not chained so we can pass every character to binary, get them encrypted and use them as reference to decode out file.

SECCON Quals 2017 "printf machine" Writeup

The binary is reading format strings one by one from provided file and prints them in /dev/null.

This fprintf receives a lot of parameters, which actually are 16 bytes of memory, 16 bytes of flag, and pointers to said bytes. That are 64 parameters in total. Because of using %hhn specifiers, format strings can write to provided memory addresses, so we can perform additions with them easily.

Since given "virtual program" was pretty big, almost 3400 lines, I wrote a parser to make "virtual instructions" (format strings) more human-readable. For example, %2$*36$s%2$*41$s%4$hhn becomes mem[3] = mem[3] + mem[8].

After parsing int human-readable form patterns in code became more obvious, so the next thing I wrote were two "optimizing" passes that folded additions in multiplications and then multiplications into one big sum.

Next, after parsing we have pretty simple program already. It is clear that flag is checked using a linear system, so we can use z3 to solve it easily.

Kaspersky Crackme 2016

Нам дан бинарный исполняемый файл PE под x86. Открываем его в IDA, переходим в main и видим такой код:

int __cdecl main(int argc, const char **argv, const char **envp)
{
  int result; // eax@2
  const char *v4; // ecx@3

  printf("Welcome to Kaspersky CrackMe 2016!\n");
  if ( argc == 3 )

Zeronights 2017 HackQuest Day #2 Writeup

Your friend works in an antivirus company. He developed a new algorithm for generating a license key and asks you to test it.

Нам дан архив с исполняемым файлом ELF x86_64 "petrovavlic". Недолго думая, открываем его в IDA, и видим, что он запакован UPX 3.94. Сам UPX распаковать его не может, автор вырезал имена секций. Каким-нибудь образом его распаковываем, например, восстановлением названий, и продолжаем.

По строкам из распакованного файла сразу понятно, что он написан на Go. Из них же и узнаем об авторе задания.
