Good day to you all.

It seems there is a bug in this task. Why? Let me explain. After overflowing the buffer, the check is "0xefadbeef". So I said to myself, "oh, it seems to have somehow transformed the "de" into "ef".[stop spoil]

It’s still 0xefadbeef. In fact, it doesn’t matter what I do to the character, it always comes out as "0xefadbeef".

I got the shell from this challenge. But what is supposed to be the flag? The string we need to enter in password field?
Should it be the input that resulted in shell?
Thanks for the help

The flag for this type of challenges is always in ".passwd"

How do I open the ".passwd" file? I am new to this whole concept (just a newbie beginner).

Even I’m unable to open the file due to lack of permissions
