  This is a simple quest: I need you to calculate some hashes. Easy, right?

  Firstly, calculate the MD5 hash of the string "CSCTF". <br>
  Then, put that hash in a file called "ctf.txt". <br>
  Once you do that, calculate the SHA256 hash of the new file **`:)`**. <br>
  
  Next, crack the following hash: `6e6a4cd1b4c953e652628742c9bf6e2e9a544b5d` 
  and calculate the SHA1 hash of the resulted string. <br>
  
  Finally, put the resulted hash on a new line inside the earlier "ctf.txt", 
  then calculate the SHA512 of the new file. This will be wrapped in the flag format.
  
  <br>

  Flag format: **`CSCTF{SHA512_hash}`**
  
  <br>

flags:
    - {
      type: "static",
      content: "CSCTF{66eb9f5349ca95dca65a97c2f3d64fa3611dd79b5c8f8a871c3e1bd5e2ed96ba39ed60061b4f7f694994b039961d1c07c661a80002dd82f5f1ccebc6a057899b}",
      data: "case_insensitive",
    }
