As each year the French Security conference SSTIC release a security challenge prior to the conference.

This year the challenge seemed "easier" than the previous year as the stage 1 got 135 validations versus 86 validations in 2022.

This article will detail my solution for the step 0 and the step 1.

The first of April is always the occasion for some great pranks. 2015 was a great year, as the CERN confirmed the existence of the Force, Google published a mirroring website and gentoo an old fashion one. In France we got a security event call SSTIC for which the tickets are very rare therefore the SSTIC challenge allows the ones with the flag to reserve a ticket. An April prank challenge was post yesterday.
