## ASIS CTF Quals 2015 – Cross Check (Crypto 350)

The flag is encrypted by this code, can you decrypt it?

Summary: breaking RSA modulos with related primes.

In this challenge we have 3 RSA modulos and 3 parts of flag encrypted. Here’s how the keys are generated:

p = random.randint(1 << 510, 1 << 511) q = random.randint(1 << 510, 1 << 511)   for i in range(0, 3): p = gmpy.next_prime(p) q = gmpy.next_prime(q) P.append(p) Q.append(q)   for i in range(0, 3): N.append(P[i] * Q[2 - i])

All the primes are very close to each other. Each modulus is related to any other: one factor is slightly increased, another one is slightly decreased.

Note: if both factors were slightly increased (e.g. N[i] = P[i] * Q[i]), then it would be easy to break with Fermat method for factorization for N[0] * N[1]: it would yield us P[0]*Q[1] and P[1]*Q[0] and then GCD would reveal all the factors.

Let’s look closer at some pair of modulos, let’s say N[0] and N[1] (p and q redefined for simplicity):

We want to exploit the fact that and are small (we can bruteforce them). Consider linear combination of this modulos:

If we consider this modulo (a + b) then we will have:

Let M be some large prime,a=1 and b=M-1. Then

And if M is large enough, modulo reduction can be dropped and we will learn the exact value of

UPD: I just realized that modulo M is not needed at all. Simply

.

Having this linear combination of p and q we can easily bruteforce and and factor all the modulos!

(quadratic equation over integers with unknown q).

The code:

M = gmpy.next_prime(1 << 1000) C = (N[0] + (M - 1) * N[1]) % M if C > M / 2: # p s_q - q s_p can be negative C = -(M - C)   p_sp = None for sp in xrange(1, 2000): for sq in xrange(1, 2000): # solve quadratic equation over ZZ a = sp b = C + sp * sq c = sq * (C - N[0]) D = b ** 2 - 4 * a * c if D < 0: continue sqrD = D.root(2)[0] if sqrD ** 2 != D: continue for add in (-sqrD, sqrD): q = (-b + add) / (2 * a) if N[1] % q == 0: p_sp = N[1] / q break if p_sp: break   assert p_sp, "no solution?" P = [None] * 3 Q = [None] * 3 P[2] = gmpy.next_prime(p_sp) Q[0] = N[2] / P[2] Q[1] = gmpy.next_prime(Q[0]) Q[2] = gmpy.next_prime(Q[1]) P[0] = N[0] / Q[2] P[1] = gmpy.next_prime(P[0]) assert P[0] * Q[2] == N[0] assert P[1] * Q[1] == N[1] assert P[2] * Q[0] == N[2]   cts = [ "DjXmcsw0QXBRBiUOx2Uu4kS/gFvIYyf6MSJLWlwy8i7WjVB8vOtUb90GTFSuHDX6iawvUg/XVjU7DVAi9EhMGSS2LyvgMH4nD4gjlVlC2PkxkNDILuUq//5DMoTUyootReoke1jXDnmHg1y0KglkIylL2dufsHc74cAKnciNU9U=", "DkYN4JwQU+EstIvIs662BISkzXxqqfb62DrJFV5efVuXtkLSQrzHgLczgC1blF8e29x46Jz2yjqb1eb2IJX59yuDBHiQ13ckId+E732Bpu00ee9UqYtSNNnQFIo8LIBWFxIUK3+XjNynDD9ArcF5OkLvk8o8AU1DcAdusQtsURo=", "CuMo9lJNex64Wh63DORfMPkcwX7inwNd3QEi/OKb2vbh69v4iF46/4tCz8ZF7FEKfNxmXuyPREdS7YPqNGi9hQT21CmeiXe/AbDCITrhYVMWJi4A6wjZjkdslHklnmJFnULRkSLVCYAgVQAbPGO3CmQ+3y9QSAhZM5qi8NQnoOo=" ]   for i in range(0, 3): d = gmpy.invert(long(65537), (P[i] - 1) * (Q[2 - i] - 1)) priv = RSA.construct((long(N[i]), long(65537), long(d), long(P[i]), long(Q[2 - i]))) priv = PKCS1_v1_5.new(priv) ct = cts[i].decode("base64") print priv.decrypt(ct, None)

Ферма тоже работает.

что мы делали нет так ;(
Но крутости решения “by hellman” это не отменяет)

1. ##### hellman says:

Да, видимо нужно просто не останавливаться на первой выдаче от Ферма (которая даст уже известную факуторизацию на N1 * N2), а продолжать алгоритм.

1. ##### horokey says:

кто-то просто метод Ферма криво закодил (и не проверил) и оно вообще ниче никогда не выводило ;)

The incredible importance of this approach could be to let your visitors know that you are following-up with them to cause them to become happy in relation to their purchase and therefore if they’ve got any problems or concerns they will contact one.Do not overwhelm him or her with sales pitches let that are a 2nd message.Get them to be feel that you really cherish their satisfaction with your product.

If you want obtaining some sort of discount anytime shopping on Kohl’s website, keep planned discounts may be not stackable, meaning it’s hard to use more then one per obtain and aren’t combine these folks with other bargains, coupons, profits, etc.This is certainly pretty usual place amongst secure password manager stores.Kohl’s coupons might be a dollar based upon, meaning you may save some sort of specified dollars amount each order if you ever order whole is over a specific amount, or it will likely be a proportion off a good purchase in case you meet most of the requirement and even or conditions.

Remember the fact that Kohls is just not the sole website to make use of promotions via online codes and price reduction links.Many stores by having a web presence make use of offering their prospective customers hidden treasures similar to the ones earlier on they just may not in obvious site and may take a certain amount of searching on your favorite online search engine to discover your price cut.Whether or not you will discover any offers can be found at the amount of time you tend to be shopping is choice, the purchaser, to learn.
