Anhkhoa on 2021-09-18 04:00: maybe I already have the code reversed but I don't know how to cut the extra characters at the end

matv201 on 2021-09-20 00:08: My first crackme! I believe I figured it out but can't get the binary to run. I renamed file with .exe and tried compatibility mode but still it says "cannot start or run due to incompatibility with 64-bit version of Windows". Any ideas?

matv201 on 2021-09-20 04:13: nvm, it is unix lol

RaphDev on 2021-09-23 15:47: @matv201 you cannot run it in windows it's a linux binary file

usernamechecksout on 2021-11-22 00:00: As a newbie on this site. Can i crack it by editing instructions? disturbing the flow of the program? or is there a flag?

RaphDev on 2021-11-26 22:11: usernamechecksout: you just have to reverse this binary and then find out how the algorithm works, that's it

tomg404 on 2021-11-29 00:23: Why does aaaaaa 1 bbbbbb work, but a 1 b doesn't? Can somebody explain?

KPia on 2021-12-12 19:49: Found a patch such as : if (iVar1 == 0) { puts("\nWrong password"); } else { puts("\nYou are succesfully logged in"); But I didn't really understood what was going on in the loop xD a = 0; while( true ) { a = x; b = strlen(usr); if (b

KPia on 2021-12-12 20:11: x = 0; while( true ) { a = (ulong)x; b = strlen(username); if (b

KPia on 2021-12-12 20:38: Sorry for messing up with the comments. tomg404: (a, 1, b) works. It's case sensitive. Ran the loop on my laptop and understood. Thx.

MM on 2022-01-03 19:55: Seems to me that there's a bug in the loop that goes through each char in Username and add up with the input number. The new string that this loop creates (in the stack position: rbp-0x50) is not terminated with NULL char, and strcmp function uses NULL char to know where's the end of both strings to compare. Because of this, the behavior ends up not deterministic

bond_u on 2022-02-21 18:53: Just set the breakpoint before taking the input password. examine the value of generated password by command x/s $rbp-0x50 and continue the program and enter the password stored in $rbp-0x50

3nnu1t3 on 2022-04-07 20:49: I was unable to use ltrace in this crackme, because it was likely compiled with -z now (see https://stackoverflow.com/questions/61394462/alternative-to-ltrace-that-works-on-binaries-linked-with-z-now/) I solved it using an alternative to ltrace that works with this type of file, is this cheating?? If you don't intend for us to use ltrace maybe you should say in the description RaphDev :)

andy on 2022-05-20 21:12: Nice and easy crackme. You can't enter a name with a space though, e.g "firstname surname"

Danofred on 2022-09-29 20:56: thanks brother for this little challenge

chris.dinozzi on 2023-04-14 14:27: fun challenge! :)

angz on 2023-04-19 11:17: very fun crackme! Absolutely funnier to go through this rather than the usual crackmes for beginners.

letuss004 on 2023-04-30 16:17: Beginner friendly, everyone should try :D
