## rdctd 1-6 Combined Writeup

All `rdctd` tasks reference the same PDF and ask for different hidden flags.

### Unified Method

1. Parse visible text and metadata (`pdfinfo`, `pdftotext`, `strings`).
2. Iterate through compressed `stream ... endstream` objects.
3. Attempt zlib inflate (normal and raw deflate).
4. Extract `ENO{...}` candidates and select by challenge index digit.

### Unified extractor

```python
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import re, zlib
from pathlib import Path

FLAG_RE = re.compile(rb"ENO\{[^\r\n\}]{1,200}\}")

def extract(pdf_bytes: bytes):
out = set(m.group().decode('latin1','ignore') for m in FLAG_RE.finditer(pdf_bytes))
for m in re.finditer(rb"stream\r?\n", pdf_bytes):
s = m.end(); e = pdf_bytes.find(b"endstream", s)
if e < 0: continue
chunk = pdf_bytes[s:e]
if chunk.endswith(b"\r\n"): chunk = chunk[:-2]
elif chunk.endswith(b"\n"): chunk = chunk[:-1]
for wb in (zlib.MAX_WBITS, -15):
try:
dec = zlib.decompress(chunk, wb)
except Exception:
continue
out.update(x.group().decode('latin1','ignore') for x in FLAG_RE.finditer(dec))
break
return sorted(out)

pdf = Path('Planned-Flags-signed-2.pdf').read_bytes()
for f in extract(pdf):
print(f)
```

### Notes

- `rdctd 5` has a verified local solver in `misc/rdctd5/solution/solution.py`.
- For the other rdctd variants, choose the candidate containing the requested digit (`1`..`6`).
