super easy since I'm very new to ctf's. Im using Linux found this one to be rather simple. clue-if you cat the file you will find it..good luck

guys im using win11 and opening the file in notepad and searching for ctf gives CTFlearnHº{fl4ggyfH‰EÐH‰UØHÇEàl4g} even if we remove the H,U,Es we get CTFlearn{fl4ggyf‰Ð‰ØÇEàl4g} but its not working

easyyy

Cat the file in terminal

I used strings) Never used cat, is it better?

It's easy

strings

i start to get flag with challenge rule , HEX ... but the easiest way to get it is NOT use HEX .

use strings

Now I have a .elf file, but now i am sticking at the "open problem". SO I can't open it. Need Help

I could be wrong about this like, in terms other than for this CTF, but I think in general, when you're analyzing an unknown file, you don't want to execute/open it before doing some other things, like using some static analysis tools. I solved the challenge btw haha, so I can definitely say for this challenge it's not necessary to open it, again - the static analysis, now that I look @ when you posted, you probably solved it by now...

i havent solved it please help

I am new to CTF i tried by not able to solve this. Any one can help me in this??

try using a command which only shows strings.. and save it to another text file using " > " then Check that text file

same, ive never used linux before so im learning a lot of new things, which is fun :)

How's it going with you now? XD I wasn't consistently playing with ctf the last period, but I'm coming back and I really wanna learn a ton.

Belive me.... A single Command is enough ?

I solved this, but I don't think I solved it the right way. I wish I knew the proper method to solve
