    shellCTF – Algoric Shift (Cryptography)

    Tiens (Verniel) competed in the shellCTF this past weekend and here’s the first solution to the flag for the first Cryptography challenge. The challenge was called “Algoric-Shift” and we were given the below: Download the script.py to decrypt the above ciphered text. To view the code please watch the video below for this challenge as I do not want to share it since it is not my code. In short there is a text variable containing a string ‘flag{…}’, the program contains 3 lists and checks the length of the text variable. It then does a modulus on each and appends each character to a list. I pasted the ciphered…
