In this case we will generate RSA, ECDSA and EdDSA signatures.Įncrypting with public key (RSA and ElGamal) It supports the public key methods of RSA, ELG, DSA, ECDH, ECDSA, and EDDSA. The GNU Privacy Guard (GPG) is a program that is based on OpenPGP and can generation a keys pairs, encrypt and decrypt data, and digitally sign files and verify digital signatures.

Often we have to convert the public key to an ASCII format.

The compression methods supports are ZIP, ZLIB, and BZIP2. For hashing methods, we can use SHA1, RIPEMD160, SHA256, SHA384, SHA512, and SHA224. Also symmetric key ciphers of IDEA, 3DES, CAST5, BLOWFISH, AES, AES192, AES256, TWOFISH, CAMELLIA128, CAMELLIA192, and CAMELLIA256.

Files: Only three files, public_key.pem, file.This page outlines some applications of PGP (Pretty Good Privacy), GPG (GNU Privacy Guard) and Box.

I know the tool 'openssl' will be used to solve this challenge.

Here is the 3 files zipped in tarball, if anyone wants to analyse them: Ĭould someone please advise me on how to decrypt the '.enc' file before I give up on this challenge? I have worked long and broken the first part of the challenge, now I feel I'm so close. Tried the tool 'openssl' in Linux in several ways to try to decrypt the file. If I try to use the public_key.pem as infile, I get this error: unable to load Private Keyġ39914348455592:error:0906D06C:PEM routines:PEM_read_bio:no start line:pem_lib.c:703:Expecting: ANY PRIVATE KEY Yes, but that's because private key is not provided to me. I got the this error: no keyfile specified I tried the following command for decryption: openssl rsautl -decrypt -in public_key.pem -out key.bin.

Read many posts like this one online and tried to decrypt the '.enc' file: You can do the same thing to decrypt using RSA.'

Using raw algorithm, every 64 bits chunk of data was encrypted at a time. I solved the first part: I have been able to decode a hint that says: 'The file file.enc could be decrypted with a private key. I solved almost all other CTF challenges except this one and it has been bugging me since. The corresponding public key '.pem' file was provided to me. While solving a CTF challenge online, I came across a situation where I needed to decrypt a '.enc' file that has been encrypted using someone's public key.
