nlinks (part b)
quals
A (binary?) ninja cut the chain of flag into many links. Can you put all links together, reassemble the chain, and recover the flags?
- If a link requires a passphrase, it is the input that the previous link takes.
- To make your life easier, each link will print out its intended ID in the chain -- once you figure out the intended input the link takes.
Download the file from nlinks (part a). Solve all binaries to get the second flag.
