This year at the POC conference there was an special “event”. The staff organized a hacking/reversing challenge called “Hacker’s Dream” that was composed by two crackmes, two script deobfuscation tests, two malware-like samples to analyze and a network forensics challenge to solve. You can download the second place report slides (in korean) (seems that the winner team was unable to attend the conference and therefore, the second one had to do the speech). During this speech, one of our pandas was checking his own writeup against the speaker’s one and also had the oportunity to chat with other people that tried the challenge. That panda (yes it’s you, moron) missed to solve two parts of the challenge, one of them being Scripting#1. So while talking with somebody that solved this particular part and also had a report, we managed to convince her to translate it. Finally, after some panda laziness, here we have the POC’08 Scripting#1 writeup by Woos. Enjoy!

Note: As it seems that the original contest files are no longer available on the POC webpage, you can download here the Scripting#1 challenge.

Few days ago, the Power of Community conference ended, and two intrepid and “oppa” pandas were there to have fun and (cough) speak about malware unpacking.
