I coded a small crackme for you, don’t know if this crackme is for advanced users or not, depending on the results I will change the difficult for future crackmes
GOAL
Guess and post here the correct serial/key for this crackme
You can crack or patch the crackme if you want, but you need to provide the correct serial/key
If you want, write a nice tutorial explaining how you beat this
If you solve this crackme, you will see this message:
Some Info
This crackme uses some anti-debug tricks that may trigger AVs. VirusTotal shows 22 detections, but the file is clean. If you feel better, you can run it into a VirtualMachine or SandBox (there is no anti-vm tricks on this crackme).
Was an interesting challenge, looked way easier at first sight turned out it took me way longer than expected.
Had lots of fun though!
My solution was to hook the entiere msvbvm60.dll to see what the obfuscated code calls, which then lead me to VarTstNe where I then simply dumped the compare values.
For context, @Leeky was the highest scoring member on our CTF. He is probably the best pwner on this forum (excluding @exploit, @_py, @dtm + @0x00pf) since they all were involved in CTF development.
