Solution for www.net-force.nl : Level 404 Hiding in a pipe

Solution for www.net-force.nl : Level 404 Hiding in a pipe

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level404/portal.php

Quest:

Hack this 'portal' to find the password :-)

This puzzle is an easy one. The hint given to us is hiding in a pipe. The portal provide us with 3 forms which allow us to DES crypt, finger a user and ping itself. As shown below...

Now we all know that ping is a standard command... could it be that the server take in the text box value and pass it off as a command? let us try to modify ping netforce.nl to ls instead... ah... somehow it failed... there must be some sort of filtering... but wait what will happen if we were to pipe another command behind this ping? Let us try "ping netforce.nl | ls" in the textbox...

wow... we got something here.... whats in info.txt?

try this link: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level404/info.txt
it states... Nice one, you have finished the first part...proceed

=( continue to part 2... there is a protected folder... question is how do we get to the folder when an authentication is required...

ah... remember in the portal.php? there is a finger user textbox with a default username in it: "BasTijs". But no password is given... let us just try the username with no password... bingo we got in! It shows us the files in the protected folder and solution.php is the password to this puzzle.

Password: pijpme!

Solution for Bright-Shadows.net : JavaScript - Hard but possible.

This is the link to the original challenge: http://bright-shadows.net/challenges/levelj4/index.php

However, you will need to register before you can make an attempt to solve this.

Quest:

Only input a valid username and you will get to the solution page.

As this is the easiest one, let's just do a quick "view-source" and we can quickly spot the following Javascript.

<script type="text/javascript">
  function testEncode(form){
    input_user = document.formular.user.value;
    if (input_user == "thebestoneisthis") {
        window.location.href="thebestoneisthis.php";
    }else{
        window.location.href=input_user +".php";
    }
}
</script>

As we can see, it is trying to validate whether our input value matches "thebestoneisthis"

You see "thebestoneisthis" and that's the password.

That's pretty easy for everyone to understand. :D

tedespqtcdezypozyzeqzcrpeesleespalddhzcotdlsopqufvwrcmodprq

The first thing that came to my mind for all basic crypto challenges is Caesar's Cipher.
Immediately, i thought of using this to help me to do a quick check whether my hunch is correct.

After some tampering with the shifting, it seems that N got to be 15. In other words, shift 11 to the right and we got back the following:

itsthefirstonedonotforgetthatthepasswordisahdefjuklgrbdsegf

The author of this challenge just concatenate it altogether and the password to the challenge is "ahdefjuklgrbdsegf" without the double quotes.

That's pretty easy for everyone to understand. :D

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.bright-shadows.net/challenges/scripts/js5/index.php
However, you will need to register before you can make an attempt to solve this.

Quest:

Please enter your username!

As this is the easiest one, let's just do a quick "view-source" and we can quickly spot the following Javascript.

<script type="text/javascript">
  function check() {
    pass     = unescape('%44%61%67%6F%62%65%72%74%20%44%75%63%6B');
    solution = pass.substr(0,8)+pass.substring(9,13)+pass.substring(8,9);
    passwd = document.formular.user.value;
    if (passwd == solution) {
      window.location.href=solution+".php";
    }
    else {
      alert("False!!!");
    }
  }
</script>

As we can see, it is trying to validate our input value against solution whereby solution is extracted from pass.

A simple solution to this is simply to place an alert right after the following:

passwd = document.formular.user.value;

alert(solution);

and before the following:

if (passwd == solution) {

You see "DagobertDuck " and that's the password. Please be reminded that there is a "space" in the end of the password.

That's pretty easy for everyone to understand. :D

Solution for Crackmes.de - HonestGamer's Crackme

Solution for Crackmes.de - Beezdul's Keygenme #1

This is the link to the original crackme: http://www.crackmes.de/users/honestgamer/crackme/

However, you will need to register before you can download the binary.

Hints:

Crackme is coded in C# (.NET) using Visual Studio 2010.

=========================

The User ID should be an integer that is less than 4 digits.

The User Code should be an integer as well...

=========================

This crackme is no big deal, so best of luck! :)

Regards,
HonestGamer

Difficulty: 1 - Very easy, for newbies
Platform: Windows
Language: .NET

Published: 15. Feb, 2011

Tools Required:
ilSpy - http://wiki.sharpdevelop.net/ilspy.ashx

This is another of those level 1 as difficulty type of crackme and is a .NET binary, let's open it with ilSpy immediately and we immediately found the portion that is required to code our KeyGenMe. :D

Let's take a look at the main function for this binary.

private static void Main(string[] args){
            Console.WriteLine("Crackme By HonestGamer");
            int num = 0;
            char c;
            do
            {
                Keygen keygen = new Keygen();
                keygen.Generate();
                keygen.Check(ref num);
                if (num == 0)
                {
                    Console.Write("\nInvalid Code, Try Again (Y/N)? ");
                    c = Convert.ToChar(Console.ReadLine());
                }
                else
                {
                    c = 'N';
                    Console.WriteLine("\nValid Code, Well Done! Write A Keygen Now...");
                }
            }
            while (c == 'Y' || c == 'y');
            Console.WriteLine("\nHit The Enter Key To End...");
            Console.ReadLine();
}

As we can see from the above code snippet that we have extracted with ilSpy, it is doing a keygen.Generate and keygen before validation.

Let's take a look at the 2 functions.

private Keygen(){
            do
            {
                Console.Write("\nEnter User ID: ");
                this.UserID = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
                if (this.UserID > 0 && this.UserID < 10000)
                {
                    this.UFlag = 1;
                }
                else
                {
                    this.UFlag = 0;
                    Console.WriteLine("\nUser ID Is Out Of Range! Please Enter Number Less Than 4 Digits...");
                }
            }
            while (this.UFlag == 0);
            Console.Write("\nEnter Code: ");
            this.UserCode = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine());
}

private void Generate(){
            int num = this.UserID * 786;
            this.ValidCode = num * 17;
            num = this.ValidCode / 12;
            this.ValidCode = num + 1991;
}

private void Check(ref int RFlag){
            if (this.ValidCode == this.UserCode)
            {
                RFlag = 1;
            }
            else
            {
                RFlag = 0;
            }
}

Judging from the above code snippets, the UserID had to be bigger than 0 and less than 1000.
Then it uses the user's input value for UserID to generate the serial and validate it with Check function.

Based on the Generate function, it's pretty easy for us to code the solution for this KeyGenMe now that we know the inner algorithm for it.

I have developed the solution to this crackme and placed it here.
But i will release the source code later.

I do hope that people will learn from this and find it enriching. xDDD

This is the link to the original crackme: http://crackmes.de/users/beezdul/keygenme_1/

However, you will need to register before you can download the binary.

Hints:

This crackme / keygenme was made in .net; have fun cracking it! Rules : NO PATCHING!, no selfgen. You need to make a cool keygen with cool graphics and an epic chiptune. Cheers!

Difficulty: 1 - Very easy, for newbies
Platform: Windows
Language: .NET

Published: 08. Feb, 2012

Tools Required:
ilSpy - http://wiki.sharpdevelop.net/ilspy.ashx

Since the author of this Keygenme described this as difficulty 1 and is a .NET binary, let's open it with ilSpy immediately and we immediately found the portion that is required to code our KeyGenMe. :D

private void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    bool flag = this.TextBox1.TextLength != 14;
    checked
    {
        if (!flag)
        {
            flag = (Strings.Asc(this.TextBox1.Text[4]) != 45);
            if (!flag)
            {
                flag = (Strings.Asc(this.TextBox1.Text[9]) != 45);
                if (!flag)
                {
                    object left = string.Concat(new string[]
                    {
                        Conversions.ToString(this.TextBox1.Text[0]),
                        Conversions.ToString(this.TextBox1.Text[1]),
                        Conversions.ToString(this.TextBox1.Text[2]),
                        Conversions.ToString(this.TextBox1.Text[3]),
                        "-",
                        Conversions.ToString(Strings.Asc(this.TextBox1.Text[0]) + Strings.Asc(this.TextBox1.Text[2]) * 10 + 3324),
                        "-"
                    });
                    object right = Strings.Asc(this.TextBox1.Text[1]) + Strings.Asc(this.TextBox1.Text[3]) * 10 + 1000;
                    flag = Conversions.ToBoolean(Operators.NotObject(Operators.CompareObjectEqual(this.TextBox1.Text, Operators.ConcatenateObject(left, right), false)));
                    if (!flag)
                    {
                        Interaction.MsgBox("Great job! Make a keygen!", MsgBoxStyle.Information, null);
                        return;
                    }
                }
            }
        }
        Interaction.MsgBox("You Failed :( Keep trying!", MsgBoxStyle.Information, null);
    }
}

Analysing the Algorithm behind this Crackme:
As we can see from the extracted code from the crackme, the length of the serial had to have a length of 14 and the 5th and 10th character had to be "-" without the double quotes if we look up http://www.asciitable.com/

The first 4 characters can be any random characters, the 1st and 3rd character of the 4 random characters are used to generate the 2nd set in the serial and the 2nd & 4th character of the 4 random characters are used to generate the 3rd set in the serial.

It's pretty easy now for us to code the solution for this KeyGenMe now that we now the inner algorithm for this crackme.

I have developed the solution to this crackme and placed it here.

But i will release the source code later.

I do hope that people will learn from this and find it enriching. xDDD

Solution for Bright-Shadows.net : JavaScript - Hash the Future!

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.bright-shadows.net/challenges/scripts/js3/index.php
However, you will need to register before you can make an attempt to solve this.

Quest:

Immediately, we are an alert of "No, no, no. Try it again." Let's just do a quick "view-source" and we can quickly spot the following Javascript.

<script type="text/javascript">
date = new Date();
year = date.getYear();
add = year;
for (i = 1; i<= year;i++)
{
    add +=year+i;
}
alert(add);
if (add == 395425559298)
{
    alert("Good job! You got it!");
    window.location.href=year+".php";
}
else
{
    alert("No, no, no. Try it again!");
    window.location.href="/hackchallenge.php";
}
</script>

As we can see, it's trying to use the year to do some additions and check whether the final is equal to 395425559298.

Well after some tampering of the script, we found out that the value for year must be 513436 in order to solve this.

However, you will need to register before you can make an attempt to solve this.

Quest:

Password

Immediately, we are prompted to enter the password. Let's just do a quick "view-source" and we can quickly spot the following Javascript.

<script type="text/javascript">
  function password () {
    var d1, d2, d3, d4, d5, input;
    d1=window.document.bgColor;
    d2=window.document.linkColor;
    d3=d1.substring (1,5)+d2.substring (1,3);
    d4=d3.toUpperCase ();
    input=prompt("Password:","");
    if (input!=d3 && input!=d4) {
      alert("Are you crazy? Thats so easy!");
      window.location.href="/hackchallenge.php";
    }
    else {
      window.location.href=d3+".php";
    }
  }
</script>

As we can see, we are required to have d3 or d4 as password.
Well, the easy way to solve this challenge is to either manually write out the substring or save the entire page and add the following line of code

alert(d4);

 
right before

input=prompt("Password:","");

We will see an alert with D0D0FF and that is our answer for this challenge.

That's pretty easy for everyone to understand. :D

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 601 - Keep walking...

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 601 - Keep walking...

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level601/

Quest:

This is a challenge to test your basic programming skills.

Pseudo code:
Set X = 1
Set Y = 1
Set previous answer = 1

answer = X * Y + previous answer + 3

After that => X + 1 and Y + 1 ('answer' becomes 'previous answer') and repeat this till you have X = 525.

The final answer is the value of 'answer' when X = 525. Fill it in below to check if it's the correct answer. If it is, you will get the password for the challenge page.

Example:


5 = 1 * 1 + 1 + 3

12 = 2 * 2 + 5 + 3

24 = 3 * 3 + 12 + 3

........................

........................

Since this is a programming challenge, let's look at the clues given to us.

Set X = 1
Set Y = 1
Set previous answer = 1

answer = X * Y + previous answer + 3

So we need 3 variables, x, y and answer as we can reuse "answer" as "previous answer". This will translate to something like the following.

x=1
y=1
answer = 1
answer = x * y + answer + 3

Based on the hints given, i've finally code an python script that gave me the answer.

import os, sys

def main():
    x=1
    y=1
    answer = 1

    for z in range(0,525):
        answer = x * y + answer + 3
        x+=1
        y+=1
        if x==524:
            print("\nprevious answer = %d") % (answer)
    print("\nx=%d, y=%d\nanswer = %d") % (x,y,answer)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Running my own script, i got back this:

previous answer = 47823644

x=526, y=526
answer = 48373851

Entering the answer in the challenge page and we smelled success again.

So the answer for this challenge is "pr0ggen"

Quest:

Uhm ok, get the password out of this image...it's a dutch word :)

Required Tools:
Gimp - http://www.gimp.org/
AsciiTable - http://www.asciitable.com/

Logic Behind this Challenge:
Ok, from what i can see right now, the image seems to be in different shades of a similar colour.
Using Gimp, i have derived the following HTML notation for the colours:
8B8B61, 8B8B61, 8B8B70, 8B8B6A, 8B8B65, 8B8B73

As we can see, the HTML notation for all the colours differ slightly. So let's try converting the last portion of each colour from Hex back to Ascii.

The word that we got back is aapjes and that is the password to this particular challenge.

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 402 - Oops, a typo...

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/

Quest:

This challenge consists of two parts.

Just start here.

Required Tools:
Live HTTP Headers - http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/

Logic Behind the Challenge:
When we try to access http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/protected.php
We will see the following image:

From the error in the image, it seems that it is expecting some sort of input variable, ip and that ip had to be from 213.75.238.147
Ok, let's try feeding a parameter to the url like this:
http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/protected.php?ip=213.75.238.147

By doing so, we have solved 1 half of the challenge and we will see this.

Congratz...You have solved the first part :)

Proceed

If we access the link given directly, we will land up on
http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/auth.php?denied
The clue is "Access Denied"

Maybe let's try to view it with Live HTTP Headers

It seems to us that it's trying to do a GET to
http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/auth.php?show=no
Then it redirect us to
http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/auth.php?denied

So the question now for us is...what if we change value for parameter, show, to yes instead of no

The url would look like this:
http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level402/auth.php?show=yes

Doing so and we will be greeted with

The password is: expl017

So there we have it, the password for this particular challenge is expl017

Since the hints implied that the user is NetForce.

Let's try using John The Ripper to find out the answer.

C:\john179\run>john.exe --show 1.txt
NetForce:koe

1 password hash cracked, 0 left

C:\john179\run>

As we can see above, the password to this challenge is "koe"

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 403 - Source Cooking!

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 403 - Source Cooking!

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level403/index.php

Quest:
Gain access to this script!

Challenge

Btw, we've got a new option to view the source of this page! Neat eh?

View Source

Tools Required:
Cookie Manager+ - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/cookies-manager-plus/

Logic Behind the Challenge:
Let's take a look at the source of that page and we can see the following source code as shown in the image below.

So if we change the parameter from index.html to http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level403/source.php?url=challenge.php

All that was returned is "Only HTML files allowed!"

Hmmm..let's try doing a null-byte injection "%00.html" without the double quotes right behind the url again. Null Byte Injection is an active exploitation technique that was used very frequently in the past to bypass sanity checking filters.

This time round, we smelled some success here.

Ahhh...this seems much easier now. So it expects a cookie with the md5 hash value of NetForce.

Ok, let's fire up Cookie Manager+ and add in the following cookie.

After we have added the cookie, let's try to access the challenge.php page again and this time round, you should see the password, CookieMonster

I do hope that someone learned something from here.

Cheers

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 701 - Hey, where are you from?

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level701/index.php

Quest:

When all the HTTP vars are [OK] you will find the password!

Forwarded: (politie.nl)	[FAILED]
OS: (Unix)	[FAILED]
Via: (net-force.nl)	[FAILED]

Tools Required:

Modify Headers - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/modify-headers/

User Agent Switcher - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/user-agent-switcher/

Logic Behind this challenge:

Well from initial analysis, it seems that the author of this challenge wanted us to fake our data to conform to what he / she wanted.

So let's use Modify Headers and fill it with these information as shown in the image below.

After we have started it, and we try to refresh the challenge page. It will look like this.

It seems like we are required to get it right if we use a Mac or Ubuntu. But in this case, i prefer to use User Agent Switcher and changed it to Android user agent.

After changing to that, we smelled success and immediately. The answer appeared right before our eyes.

The password is: httpheaders

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 805 - Another picture!

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 805 - Another Picture!

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level805/index.php

Quest:

Another dutch word is hidden in this image ;)

Logic Behind this Challenge:

At first glance, the top left hand corner of the image seems a bit distorted.

So i guess, maybe i should open it with Notepad or other similar tools.

One thing that caught my notice is this particular string at the end of the image.

Hmmm...seems like some sort of Binary.
Let's convert this piece of Binary back to Ascii and see what does it return to us.
Awesome, we got back "koekj3s" and that is the password to this particular challenge. :D

It seems easy but i believe such techniques are being used in some cases in the past when people try to hide data that they stolen from companies..

110101010101010101010101010101010101010101010101

This is probably much more obvious than the previous challenge.

If we take a much closer look and you will realised that there is a word within the flag like image.

That word is "TULP" and that is the password to this particular challenge.

Solution for Net-Force.nl : Level 801 - Training - Can you see me?

This is the link to the original challenge: http://www.net-force.nl/challenge/level801/index.php

Quest:

********** Your challenge is to find it :) **********

Look at the file password.gif and you will find the password for the next challenge page easy!!!...You hope ;-)

This challenge is part of the basic training. If you don't know what to do you can check out the solution.

Obviously, there is solution provided but where's the fun and you won't learn if you looked at the answer straight away.

So let's look at all the clues given to us.

The title is "Can you see me?" and there is large gap in between the text.

Hmmmm...could it be "White text on white Background"?

Let's get to work on this and select everything on the page and you will see the following image.

Great, so we need to look at the "password.gif"

Let's view the source of that image file and you will see this:

There you go, the password to this particular challenge is "Stegano"

I wonder does people really use this type of technique to hide the "secret text" or image on top of text in Office documents? xDDD
