I haven’t done much work with Ruby, but this little challenge from the Internetwache CTF looked interesting.

Challenge:

Ruby’s count (exp50)

Description: Hi, my name is Ruby. I like converting characters into ascii values and then calculating the sum.

Service: 188.166.133.53:12037

Solution

The first thing to do was to poke the service using netcat:

> nc 188.166.133.53 12037
Let me count the ascii values of 10 characters:
> 123
WRONG!!!! Only 10 characters matching /^[a-f]{10}$/ !
