Can you crack the password to get the flag?
Download the password checker here and you’ll need the encrypted flag and the hash in the same directory too.
There are 7 potential passwords with 1 being correct. You can find these by examining the password checker script.

hint

• To view the level3.hash.bin file in the webshell, do: $ bvi level3.hash.bin
• To exit bvi type :q and press enter.
• The str_xor function does not need to be reverse engineered for this challenge.

• ketika saya cek di file python nya ternyata terdapat sebuah function pengecekan, dan dibawahnya terrdapat sebuah list password yang sudah pasti benar
  • dan saya mencoba untuk melakukan looping dengan function tersebut

    def level_3_pw_check(user_pw): # tambahkan paramter user_pw
        # user_pw = input("Please enter correct password for flag: ")
        user_pw_hash = hash_pw(user_pw)
        
    pos_pw_list = ["8799", "d3ab", "1ea2", "acaf", "2295", "a9de", "6f3d"]
    
    for i in pos_pw_list:
        level_3_pw_check(i)
    

• dan ketika saya run

  python3 level3.py
  # That password is incorrect
