CTF Write-Up: STEGO

This one was a little more challenging (for me) that I would care to admit for a 10 pointer.

Challenge:  (https://backdoor.sdslabs.co/challenges/STEGO)
Get the flag from here

Points: 10

We start off by downloading the file and running the normal file, strings, and binwalk commands against it.

Justin and I were doing this one together and while I was busy looking at in a Hex Editor, Justin mentioned that it may have been backwards (For the life of me, I can't remember why).

Well, I'll be damned....  I scroll to the bottom of my Hex Editor:
%PNG is the file header signature for a PNG image so to the google I go for a script to reverse a file.  I found one written in python and give it a shot.

Well, there ya have it.  Open the new file in your image viewer of choice and capture that flag!
