solve the challenge, find the flag and then convert the flag comparing with old and proposed sha checking to see that do we even need to change the sha. |

We need to check if the flag matches the sha from earlier or proposed when we solve the challenge. Without review the changes are futile so test solving the challenge to check if the proposed flag sha matches the actual we obtain from solving the challenge.
I've attempted to solve the binary challenge to verify the hash change. I reverse engineered the encoding algorithm which uses rand() with default seed and applies modulo operations, but despite multiple approaches I haven't been able to successfully extract the correct flag. The challenge requires determining input that when encoded matches specific bytes stored in the binary. I tried:
Without access to the referenced blog post (domain blocked) or additional guidance, I'm unable to complete the verification. Could you provide the correct flag or point me to the solution so I can verify which hash (old:
I attempted to solve the rev4 binary challenge to verify the proposed SHA256 hash change. Despite reverse engineering the encoding algorithm and trying multiple approaches, I was unable to successfully extract the flag. The challenge uses a complex encoding scheme with rand() and modulo operations that makes direct reversal difficult. Without access to the solution or the referenced blog post, I cannot complete the verification you requested. Could you provide guidance on obtaining the correct flag so I can test it against both the old and proposed SHA256 hashes? |
The SHA256 hash stored in
accessdeniedctf2022/binary/.flag.sha256
was incorrect. This PR updates it to the correct hash value as referenced in the issue and the associated blog post.Change:

The change maintains the exact 64-character hexadecimal format consistent with all other
