# Super Safe RSA 2 - Crypto
> Wow, he made the exponent really large so the encryption MUST be safe, right?! Connect with nc 2018shell2.picoctf.com 56543
If we connect to it, we get the following numbers:

Since e is not a usual value here, and it is very large, I google about that and find that RSA with such large e is easily prone to [Wiener Attack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiener%27s_attack).
Then I find these [scripts](https://gist.github.com/mananpal1997/73d07cdc91d58b4eb5c818aaab2d38bd) online. After changing to my values and then running it, I get the flag: picoCTF{w@tch_y0ur_Xp0n3nt$_c@r3fu11y_5261983}
