CyberPaws CTF: Week 13

Baby's First BinBomb

The next CyberPaws CTF challenge has been released! Please submit your flag to the "Prize Pup Bot" on our Discord via DMs, using the `!submit` command! You have until our next meeting to submit. The flag will always be in the following format: Paws{ex4mpl3_fl4g}.

Category: Binary Exploitation
Challenge Name: Baby's First BinBomb

If you're new to binary bombs, this is the perfect start!

Your task is to defuse a ticking time bomb by entering the correct input into the command line of a Linux terminal. If the correct input is provided, the bomb diffuses. If not, it explodes!

Run the binary in a Linux terminal, play the game, and solve the questions to get the flag.

There are two paths: You can try to solve the puzzles and guess your way to safety, or you can dive into the code and figure out the expected inputs before ever running the program

Whether you're a codebreaker or a puzzle solver, this challenge has something for everyone. Good luck and have fun!

Note: The flag will be alphanumeric. Please surround it with Paws{} when submitting, like so: Paws{ex4mpL3_fl4G}
