collision
{"author": ["ret2basic"]}
Daddy told me about cool MD5 hash collision today. I wanna do something like that too!
ssh [email protected] -p2222 (pw:guest)
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
unsigned long hashcode = 0x21DD09EC;
unsigned long check_password(const char* p){
int* ip = (int*)p;
int i;
int res=0;
for(i=0; i<5; i++){
res += ip[i];
}
return res;
}
int main(int argc, char* argv[]){
if(argc<2){
printf("usage : %s [passcode]\n", argv[0]);
return 0;
}
if(strlen(argv[1]) != 20){
printf("passcode length should be 20 bytes\n");
return 0;
}
if(hashcode == check_password( argv[1] )){
system("/bin/cat flag");
return 0;
}
else
printf("wrong passcode.\n");
return 0;
}
The program takes 5 4-byte hex numbers as
argv[1]
and it calls check_password()
. If the sum of these 5 hex numbers equals 0x21DD09EC
then the program prints out the flag.We need to find 5 integers in hex that sum to
0x21dd09ec
. The naive idea is to divide 0x21dd09ec
by 5. It won't work because 0x21dd09ec
isn't divisible by 5. But, following from this logic, we could find a solution using the formula:0x21dd09ec = (0x21dd09ec // 5) * 4 + <residue>
Here we have
0x21dd09ec // 5 = 0x6c5cec8
, so residue = 0x21dd09ec - 0x6c5cec8 * 4 = 0x6c5cecc
. Since the convertion is done by int* ip = (int*)p
(pointer, not string), we should use little-endian in argv[1]
