# Credstuff

We found a leak of a blackmarket website's login credentials. Can you find the password of the user cultiris and successfully decrypt it? Download the leak here.

Opening up `usernames.txt` and `passwords.txt` in Pycharm, we see `cultiris` is on line `378` of `usernames.txt` so we go to line `378` of `passwords.txt` and find an encrypted password:

```
cvpbPGS{P7e1S_54I35_71Z3}
```

The `{}` are in place, implying that it's some sort of transposition cipher for the letters. We've done it numerous times, but we try a caesar cipher decode:

```python
from string import ascii_lowercase, ascii_uppercase

enc_flag = 'cvpbPGS{P7e1S_54I35_71Z3}'

for shift in range(26):
    flag = ''

    for c in enc_flag:
        if c in ascii_lowercase:
            flag += ascii_lowercase[(ascii_lowercase.index(c) + shift) % 26]
        elif c in ascii_uppercase:
            flag += ascii_uppercase[(ascii_uppercase.index(c) + shift) % 26]
        else:
            flag += c

    print(flag)

# picoCTF{C7r1F_54V35_71M3}

```

In fact the shift is 13, so it's just a ROT13.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://ir0nstone.gitbook.io/notes/writeups/picogym/cryptography/credstuff.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
