Encoding - UU

  • Description: Very used by the HTTP protocol
  • Difficulty: Very easy

🔎 Solution

The challenge presents a rather unusual string. Using a text identification tool, I determined that the encoding format is UUencode.

I then used UUencode to decode the following string:

B5F5R>2!S:6UP;&4@.RD*4$%34R`](%5,5%)!4TE-4$Q%"@``
`

The decoded output revealed the flag:

Very simple ;)
PASS = ULTRASIMPLE
