-Alex- Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Any episode hint for useful tools required in #3? I think the one seems obvious, unless I've gone up the wrong path. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicatronTg Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 DK said he might do an article on this, so that would be helpful. Yeah, I know BFing it isn't the way to go, but at this moment I'm stumped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudeman02379 Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 I too am stuck on part 3. I was reading a ton about embeding zip files into gifs and I played with cupp trying to get the zip password but no luck yet. I swear the atari has something to do with the solution.

DingleBerries Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Nope, not saying that at all. Just saying that brute forcing it isn't going to get you everything you need. Gotta actually solve it. http://twitter.com/hak5darren/status/1664879332 If you havent solved it dont try to help with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkdelauney Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 http://twitter.com/hak5darren/status/1664879332 If you havent solved it dont try to help with it. I solved it many hours ago, I'm just not allowed to claim the prize. :P Well I didn't get a confirmation on part 4, but I got part three already.

ssmithisme Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 password for song.zip 0.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 There was a password way back in an episode where darren had shown it on screen and it was for his forum password to some pop singer. I think it was Hillary Duff or something. I wonder it that is the password for this zip file. I can't remember the episode, but I had used it to login to that account and I left Darren a message, although many people probably did that as well after that show. Just makes sense ot me that its called song.zip and he had a password to a Singers fanclub forum.Just rembered where I stored that password. Not it.

Tried: steganography - no worky exif/metadata - no worky file streams - no worky strings - no worky Hex editor for clues Tried using the song.zip as a truecrypt container with cake.jpg as the keyfile. No worky. Tried the first two checkpoints as passwords - no worky Tried various websites "encrypted" and not - no worky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssmithisme Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 It must be something really easy that we arent noticing because we are to busy making everying really complex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SETone Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 hmm yes, the first two wan kinda easy, but number3? maybe i have to wait till next episode to get more hints.. :/ <> I believe @snubs will be doing a helpful segment on the next episode. </> But must say, hunts like these are fun :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedude Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 i agree. these hunts are really fun to do. hope they continue to do more just for fun. put what we learn to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHermit Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 lol i was doing the python challenge a few weeks ago. made number 2 a little easier to spot :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 lol i was doing the python challenge a few weeks ago. made number 2 a little easier to spot :) Are you working the same easter egg? Part two didn't have any Python in it :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHermit Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Are you working the same easter egg? Part two didn't have any Python in it :) Should Read made the text in the first one easier to recognise. and the same for the 2nd one as well. (thats as far as i got so far) i still had the script i wrote for Python and is easier than doing it by hand :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHermit Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 Quick question and hope im not giving too much away but when you enter the Code are people using the one displayed or the one after conversion? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netshogun Posted May 3, 2009 Share Posted May 3, 2009 i have entered converted code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren Kitchen Posted May 3, 2009 Author Share Posted May 3, 2009 tsgrinder or any other brute force won't help you. There are no user accounts associated with the telnet server so don't bother. Of course there is a user for the RDP server but it's not administrator and it's got a 50+ character password so unless you wanna come down to the hakhouse and MITM it you're barking up the wrong tree. Two people have already successfully submitted the codes from checkpoints 1-4. We've decided to give the first three winners awesome personalized hakpacks / Matt's DNA for nefarious cloning experiments. We shot the episode on Saturday night so you may have caught Shannon's helpful segment live. Otherwise the episode airs Tuesday night -- usually a little past 11:30 PM EST at revision3.com/hak5 (they put it online first and update the RSS feeds because bandwidth is cheaper overnight. I try to get it on hak5.org no later than noon on Wednesday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sicksicksicks Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Am I the only one that feels like a complete moron because they can't figure out part three? Even with the solution handed to them on a silver platter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirBAMF Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 could anybody be so kind as to point me in the direction of decoding said code? just a little hint, no spoilerz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
