Not So Boring

pwn x86/x64 stack FCSC 2026 solved on

star star star

Description

I was informed that the first version of my program contained vulnerabilities… However, fixing them would be quite tedious and I don’t really have the time.

But I still developed my own sandbox so that it can no longer be compromised – a much more fun idea! Even LLMs haven’t found any vulnerabilities in its code.

Find a way to escape the sandbox and obtain the flag by executing /getflag.

Note: This challenge is the second part of the Boring challenge.
