Static Ain't Always Noise

In this challenge we get two files one is named static and the other is a shell script named ltdis.sh.

By running the shell script we can find the usage of the script. The usage is to extract the strings of a binary and disassemble the binary. Now let’s try to run our file with this script.

After running this we get two files namely,

• static.ltdis.x86_64.txt
• static.ltdis.strings.txt

The strings file looks interesting so let’s open the strings file first. There is a huge list so let’s try to grep to find a flag or a hint to solve.

Luckily we could find the flag.
