As for rockyou: didnāt work for me, although the pwd is contained (grep through it and itās in there). dunno why but wasted some time
overlooked a crucial bit the whole time and almost lost my head ā¦ hint: if something isnāt something, it might be something else
Awesome challenge! The initial part was very confusing,
Iām stuck with something that is not the flag (
Can anyone give me a hint on what Iām missing?
Anyone able to give a hint at the 3->4 step?? Iām running out of disk space and sanity.
So, i got matrioshka4, so what i shoul do next. idk

You can pull out all the strings with that popular tool, but not with the default settings.
Hey thanks for the hint. I got the information you referred but I am stuck now I do not know where will I use that information. Any hints?
Yeah, so Iāve gotten to 4, with not the flag and huge hex. Still bugging me what to do with itā¦

Maybe you got all the strings, maybe you didnāt and if you did, some look hexadecimal and might become something else with the right conversion, who knowsā¦

This a big hex string or something else? Iāve put it in a single line and tried xxd but it doesnāt produce a zip or anything that the file command can understand.
Any hints?
someone could kindly give me some suggestions to move forward Iām stuck at the very first step. please pm me and the last challenge to complete misc
EDIT:
I found all the strings and the fake flag. A little tip to go on?
Solved
Very well designed challenge in my opinion. Contains tricky parts, but they are all solvable without prior knowledge required (except for the fact that images may contain nested files) and without use of any āexoticā tools.
My whole folder for this challenge had about 17 MB in the end (before cleanup of some duplicates). If you are about to exceed this by far, you are propably on the wrong track.
