molnarg 04. Jan 2014 | Nice beginner crackme, I enjoyed solving it! (Warning: at the time of writing, the 32bit version did not work as intended, but the 64bit version did) |

xtofs1 08. Jan 2014 | Please remove the 32 bit version I also had problems with it ... |
0xe7,0x1e 10. Jan 2014 | Is the 32 bit version broken? I've been trying to solve it for a while, got close but it seems that when my number is converted its no longer null terminated therefore doesn't match the string that its checked against... |
0xe7,0x1e 10. Jan 2014 | OK, I'd solved it ages ago, yes the 32bit version is broken! :-/ |
xtofs1 10. Jan 2014 | I know it is super annoying ! |
tjon.lichy 29. Jan 2014 | Any tips for a complete newcomer about how one should approach things like this? I fired up my gdb, got some breakpoints assigned and figured out what's going to scanf(). After that I simply got stuck and wonder am I approaching this from a wrong angle (ie. should I be doing something else than reading disassembly output of gdb)? |
blankwall 10. Feb 2014 | Tips would be to look at the big picture. Where is the success call? How many ways can you get there? |
seVeb Author 22. Feb 2014 | I am very sorry for the broken version, I am new to C and did not test it throughly, sorry for the inconvenience! |
GDBA 03. Apr 2014 | Solved my first crackme ^.^ Thank you! I used IDA free and the 32bit version. |
acruel 26. Jul 2015 | That's not too evil. I enjoyed it. Thanks! |
