Codefest CTF 2019

11 challenges with 15 published community solutions between them. Solution links go to CTFtime’s task page, which aggregates every writeup for a challenge - individual blog posts rot, the aggregator does not.

Full task list on CTFtime

Reverse engineering3

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

Misc3

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

Forensics2

Recover something from a file, a capture, or a disk image - often from a part of it the format says is unused.

Web1

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

Steganography1

Find the payload hidden inside a carrier that looks ordinary. Bit planes, appended data, metadata, and audio spectrograms.

OSINT1

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