Apprentice 1 Question 2

For this one you'll notice there isn't a table for it. But you have to solve a binary file, which you will download to your attacking machine.


So this challenge will involve reverse engineering an elf/binary file. Once you do, you'll have to find the encrypted password within the file which used and XOR transformation to encrypt it. Once decrypted you'll be able to get the {CTF}FLAG! - However the password is
also used to move onto Apprentice 1 Question 3.
