HTB - Nuclear Sale Walkthrough

This is a solution walkthrough to Nuclear on Hack The Box. Details on how the solution functions are documented in comments in solution.py.

Running the Walkthrough

Linux

This tool uses tcpflow and python 3 for the purpose of readability only. This could equally be accomplished with wireshark and commonly available online tools for manipulating hex, byte arrays, and xor operations. First ensure you have tcpflow available:

# Install with apt (or yum, dnf, etc)
apt-get install -y tcpflow

Then run the solution.py:

python3 solution.py

Docker

Alternatively you can execute the demo in docker as follows:

docker build -t htb-nuclear-sale .
docker run --rm -it -v /path/to/challenge.pcap:/app/challenge.pcap temp
...output of the solution.py...
