HTS Basic Web 6: Decrypt the Password

The fifth basic web mission is very different from the prior missions (except maybe in one way the second mission) in that it requires an extensive use of logic. Actually this mission doesn’t have anything to do with hacking, but it teaches a very valuable lesson, which we will come to later.

By looking at the source code, we can only see the two forms. Nothing interesting. The next step is to try out the password encryption form. Type anything, and you can see that it does work. It shows you the encrypted string. Logically, the task is simply to construct a string that is encrypted to the code you were given. I got dg7847>l. First, try with something simple:

a -> a

a gives a. Seems simple, doesn’t it?

aaaaaaaa -> abcdefgh
bbbbbbbb -> bcdefghi

This is interesting. The same character is converted to different characters depending on what position in the string it has. If we think about it, though, it isn’t complex at all: In place 0 (the first), the letter is moved 0 steps in the alphabet. In place 1, it is moved 1 step, and so on. The password, though, contained a character other than a-z, >. How can we get it? Let’s check what happens if the alphabet isn’t enough:

wwwwwwww -> wxyz{|}~

That gives it all away: everyone should know about the ASCII table. After x, y, z comes — that’s right — {, |, } and ~. Now, we only have to find the correct characters. Every character should be counted backwards a number of steps equal to its position in the encrypted string. Start with the first character. dg7847>l:

d -> d
f -> g
5 -> 7
5 -> 8
0 -> 4
2 -> 7
8 -> >
e -> l

The decrypted string is therefore df55028e. Check it first to check if you have to adjust it, and then use it to continue to the next mission. As I said before, this mission teaches a very valuable lesson: never, ever use a simple encryption algorithm. The best would be to use an irreversible algorithm, such as MD5 or SHA-1. It is even better if you manage to hide the algorithm, although security through obscurity should never be recommended. Of course, the best is to never let the encrybted password leak out.movie porn animemasterbation free moviesglory the movienudes moviemovies free bbw pornsex full length moviesmovies of stripping girlssex from scenes movies Map

    Comment by help — October 27, 2006 @ 7:36 pm

  7. “help”: There are two boxes, if memory serves me right. One is for trying the algorithm out, and the other one is for entering the real password.

    Comment by shereib — November 6, 2006 @ 7:48 am

  12. Shereib: You’ve got the right idea, you’re just counting in the wrong direction: You should take e + 0, 3 + 1, e + 2, : + 3 and so on instead of e - 0, 3 - 1, e - 2 and : - 3. Then the first three characters would be: e2c. I’m not sure, but that might be the problem.

    Comment by Tim — November 6, 2006 @ 5:00 pm

  13. hey i cant figure out what to do. do i take the password and copy it into the box to have it encrypted? if so…then what?

    Comment by hey — November 8, 2006 @ 4:28 am

  14. “hey“: That’s right. When you have verified that your decryption of the password is correct, you can enter it into the real password field (not the encryption field).

    Comment by Power — January 6, 2007 @ 9:40 pm

  27. i resolved it, with alot of help from my friend, he explained me in my language so i understand it better ^^

    my password was: 49f48f78

    49f48f78 }
    |||||||| }result: 4 = 0; 9 = 1; f = 2; 4 = 3; 8 = 4; f = 5; 7 = 6; 8=7
    01234567 }

    so 1: 4 - 0 = 0 }
    2: 9 - 1 = 8 }
    3: f - 2 = d }
    4: 4 - 3 = 1 } my password decrypted is: 08d14a11 :) i hope you all
    5: 8 - 4 = 4 } did understand… if you decrypt you minus, if you
    6: f - 5 = a } encrypt you + ^^ sorry for my bad english, i go to
    7: 7 - 6 = 1 } sleep, good night… and see ya
    8: 8 - 7 = 1 }

  36. heh, i actually took a look at the page’s info (in firefox just right click in a blank area and it’s at the bottom). from there i found the encryption’s php page, brought that up and typed in “blah” as a test and i ended up on level seven. not to sure how it worked though…?

  37. hmm… to further comment on my last post, im on what seemed to be level seven but nothing of what’s described on this site is what i have on the page i came up. i’ve saved the source code incase tim want’s to see what it was.

    Comment by zywex — January 29, 2007 @ 7:03 am

  38. zywex, that sounds weird. I’d love if you could email me the source code or upload a mirror of it somewhere. Anyway, you should report it to the HTS crew. You might get those extra points from the last realistic mission, hacking that site.

  48. Hey.. just found this site after getting to basic 6 on my own :///

    I tried getting this password decrypted: 888egk9=
    Before I went inhere I came to: 876 myself.. thats is equal ‘888′

    Well, even tho. Im reading this over and over it doesnt help me much.. cant find out how to do the last ‘egk9=’

    Could someone please help me? ..

    Comment by Daniel Andersen — February 25, 2007 @ 10:19 am

  49. Daniel, you’re right about 876. For the next character, just move three steps back in the ASCII table.

    “;” is number 59, and “=” is number 61. 59 - 2 = 57 (”9″), and 61 - 5 = 56 (”8″).

    Comment by Brittany — April 4, 2007 @ 11:16 pm

  78. Brittany, not quite. You should subtract, not add. Thus, your first two characters should be ba. Next, look at the ASCII table and see what comes two steps before 2.

    And then another question…Why couldn’t you just put the encrypted password into the encrypter and have it give you the password? (Or is the meaning of this mission understanding how it works?)

  100. Oh, screw it. I wasn’t thinking. I had to go backwards. Sorry about all that!

  106. Anonymous, you need to use a ASCII table, theres one on wikipedia, then you count back from the ‘;’ depending on where it’s placed in the string, in your case its on the 5th and 6th part so you just count back 5, and 6 times to get the answer. If that’s not simple enough then the answers for you are ‘6′ and ‘5′ for both of those parts.

  111. I decoded it and entered my result. No dice. I entered what I thought to be the password into the encryptor and got exactly what Sam had gotten. what the hell?

    Comment by David — June 22, 2007 @ 1:48 am

  112. David: That’s weird. Sure you didn’t misread anything, such as 1 and l?

    Comment by Tim — June 23, 2007 @ 11:13 pm

  113. same with me david….my code is 577hg>kk which so decode as 565ec7ed but it won’t go. I also checked it in the encryptor and again it wont work. is your’s the same code david?

  115. Ok, I’m pretty sure I’m doing this right, I just can’t figure out what the last character is in my password:

    Encrypted: c8cgj:=l
    Decrypted: c7adf57*

    I thought my decrypted password was right, but no luck. Any idea what I did wrong? I’m almost positive it has something to do with the last symbol/number. When I view the passwordon the HTS page, the “one/1″ simply looks like a bolded line, but when I copy and paste the encrypted password, it’s clearly a one.

    Comment by HackNub — July 11, 2007 @ 4:25 am

  116. Well, I decided to just replace the last symbol/letter/number with every single choice on the ASCII list, and I finally found it: e.

  126. David, How is someone retarded if they haven’t ever did this type thing before? How would you know to use java script if you had never seen a javascript code? I’d say 99% of the people on the web haven’t ever used the view source option. People have to start somewhere and to having a coach/teacher will progress there learning/knowledge astronomicaly. How many sucessful programmers do you know who haven’t ever been to any type of programming class? The site is there to learn what is possible. How do you learn these if you don’t even know what is probable?
