Poly

hackthebox

Task: aarch64 stripped 'crackme' that is actually a troll — every path through the verification logic is a honeypot. Solution: the challenge name 'Poly' = POLYGLOT; the ELF file itself is the puzzle, and the flag literally spells 'this ELF is a polyglot'. The entire self-modifying/anti-debug/md5-gate machinery is a deliberate time-wasting trap.
