Cryptography15

Recover a plaintext or a key from something that was supposed to protect it. In practice: identify the scheme, find the parameter the author got wrong, exploit it.

Uncategorised13

The upstream scoreboard did not say, so neither do we.

Misc7

Everything that fits no other box: esolangs, puzzles, scripting exercises, and the jail escapes that have not yet earned their own category.

Web6

Reach data or functionality the application meant to keep from you - through its inputs, its tokens, or its trust in the client.

Reverse engineering4

Work out what a compiled program does without its source, then work backwards from the check to the input that passes it.

OSINT1

Answer a question about the real world from public sources. The work is pivoting between identifiers, not exploiting anything.
