So now that we know how to debug "Unix style", let's try the passcode program. You can download the passcode program from https://github.com/PacktPublishing/Mastering-Reverse-Engineering/raw/master/ch6/passcode.
Try to get some static information. Here's a list of commands you can use:
ls -l passcoderahash2 -a md5,sha256 passcoderabin2 -I passcoderabin2 -i passcoderabin2 -H passcoderabin2 -z passcode
At this point, the information we're after is as follows:
- File size: 7,520 bytes
- MD5 hash: b365e87a6e532d68909fb19494168bed
- SHA256 hash: 68d6db63b69a7a55948e9d25065350c8e1ace9cd81e55a102bd42cc7fc527d8f
- The type of file: ELF
- 32-bit x86 Intel
- Compiled C code that has notable imported functions: printf, puts, strlen and ...
