Wooly-Vault

A few small challenges for ⚒️ Rust Hackers 🦀

Configuration

Each challenge requires some basic information to host:

• secret - a string that if found signifies that the challenge was solved

• addr - the network adress plus port the challenge should run on

• verbosity - how verbose the logging should be

• challenge - which challenge to host (there are a few)

The secret cannot be inputted with a command line argument, because the arguments can often be seen in the process view. You may either specify a secret in the 'WOOLY_SECRET' environment variable or input it interactively on start.

Challenges

There are a number of challenges:

1. Connect by TCP

2. Connect by TCP and send a special u16

3. Connect by TCP, get sent dynamic math questions, solve them fast enough

Solution

Solutions for some challenges can be found in solutions. Don't spoil the challenge for yourself.
