      <title>Funny Java Strings?</title>
      <category>Blog post</category>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[Java Strings are immutable, interned, optimized, and surprisingly easy to misunderstand when secrets are involved. This post digs into String pooling, reflection, Base64 copies, library APIs, and why heap dumps are bad news for secrets.]]>

      <title>Fancy Web</title>
      <category>CTF writeup</category>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[The Ministry of Information and Communications Technology of Konoha has recently launched their new official website. While it appears to be a standard government portal showcasing public services and announcements, our intelligence sources have indicated that this WordPress-based website contains hidden information that could expose corruption and human rights violations. The website features a unique table processing system that displays various government data, but our analysts suspect that the developers have hidden sensitive information within the table structures themselves. The site's administrators are known for their sophisticated obfuscation techniques, making it difficult to distinguish between legitimate public data and concealed evidence. Your mission is to investigate this website and uncover the hidden information by looking beyond the surface-level content and examining how the tables are processed and displayed - the truth might be hidden, waiting for someone with the right skills to reveal it.]]>

        <![CDATA[Be careful, others might be able to find out your most sacred secrets! (Flag only consists of emojis surrounded by 'GPNCTF{...}') The remote instance is not deployed via Docker-compose but plain Docker, resulting in the bot URL to be 'localhost:3000' instead of 'bot_service:3000' and the challenge server being 'localhost:9222' instead of 'challenge_service:9222'.]]>

      <category>CTF writeup</category>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[We recently stumbled upon an exposed SVN server of a large multimedia corporation, containing some of their backend application and internal tooling code. However, the access keys seem to not be the ones used in production - the real ones should fetch us quite a high price though, if we manage to get our hands on them that is. Just one problem - the tech stack seems to be really obscure, and no one on our team seems to have any clue what the heck is going on. Can you take a look, and maybe find some vulnerabilities in this thing?]]>

      <title>KDF dream</title>
      <category>CTF writeup</category>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[We've managed to insert ourselves into a secure channel between two covert agents, however we overplayed our hand and they have become suspicious that their channel is compromised. Realising that there is no way to restablish trust over the compromised network, Alice called for them to carry out a NIST Certified KDF protocol to generate a symmetric OTP, and then for them to use this to encrypt a physical message at a dead drop location. We want to control the message she leaves, can you influence their conversation to control what Bob reads at the dead drop?]]>

        <![CDATA[Recently I learned ASP .NET Core and boy, it's so magic! Dependency injection, dynamic routing, interfaces everywhere. But for me, it wasn't dynamic enough. So I extended the framework and now I got all the dynamic in the world I could wish for. That surely didn't introduce any vulnerabilities, right?",]]>
