YATD

Description

Yet another cipher to decode:

FH4E7LC@Ecf0243hbfh37_ge35fcN

Cipher Searcher

As implied by the challenge description, we are given a cipher to decrypt

Considering the length, there is a good chance this string directly maps to a flag in some way, so let's try comparing the first 5 characters FH4E7 with uwctf

  • F: 70 -> u: 117

  • H: 72 -> w: 119

  • 4: 52 -> c: 99

  • E: 69 -> t: 116

  • 7: 55 -> f: 102

We can see that each time there is an offset of 47 in the ASCII representations of the characters

This implies ROT47, where letters are "rotated" by 47

Flag

uwctf{rot47_acb9379bf086bd74}
