Gerald's homework is getting trickier. He isn't being given the primes anymore. Help him find the plaintext!

Same as Easy RSA, but have to work out p, q, from n. Just used factordb to do the factoring...

p: 884666943491340899394244376743
q: 1070864180718820651198166458463
e: 65537
ct (as hex): 8159e4e97b04af127fed8fbd40bd03c80c3f4b8b764a86394c
n:  834418746183915656610879248898026819357498357797104542136881

pt (as hex): 6263616374667b7273615f666163746f72696e677d
pt (as string): bcactf{rsa_factoring}

Flag: bcactf{rsa_factoring}
