Reverse Engineering to extract password from binary files

Fedora Project

Reverse Engineering means when you duplicate a specific software back to its construction. It has many applications in the field of cyber-security. I am going to provide some binary files each hidden with a password to crack. You need to reverse the binary and try getting the password.

I will be providing you with 3 files from which you need to extract the password out of the Memory.

HINT: The string that you think is a hex might not be a hex

Deliverables:

Share the Screenshots in a PDF/Word file showing the steps(it will be great if you can explain what you understand from the reversed binary) you took to crack the password. Please attach an ASCIINEMA showing you entering the password to crack.
