We were give a text file:
1. [malware](https://github.com/Red-Knights-CTF/writeups/blob/master/2020/affinity_ctf_lite/Malicious%20File/malware)
We were given a `SHA-256` hash `88b35a9365e5cd2b32c03832d2c8c02a41e3cead40e49af02cf74a73bfa0dc8d` of a file. As mentioned in discription, it is a malware. The first website that pops to mind thinking about malwares is https://virustotal.com
Paste your hash in the `Search` tab
Result let us know that file is not a malware but the `Community` tab have something for us
Someone has left a url `https://pastebin.com/QqhzEFjK`. Going there will give u a `base64` string `QUZGQ1RGe2ZvbGxvd190aGVfYnJlYWRjcnVtYnN9`, Decode it.
