This is my first time writing a write-up on github. This challenge envolves assembly code. In the hints of it, there's a site where you can access and learn some things about assembly (I needed to view more about the language to "understand" more).
Points: 200
What does asm1(0x8be) return? Submit the flag as a hexadecimal value (starting with '0x'). NOTE: Your submission for this question will NOT be in the normal flag format. Source
assembly conditions
First thing to do is pay attention in the description where it says "What does asm1(0x8be) return?", it says to us that this value(0x8be) is an input value, which means we gonna read the sentences this way: [ebp+0x8] == 0x8be --> [ebp+0x8] is equal to the value 0x8be.
This "program" simply check if the input value macthes with the statment, like: The line 3(<+3>) is doing a comparation(cmp) between ebp+0x8 and 0x7c1; The line 4(<+10>) is doing a jumping to the line <+37> if [ebp+0x8] is greater than 0x7c1, else it just move on.
So, we just need to verify the values and follow the flow. I did it this way to make it "easier".
My flag in this case was: 0x8bb
