In this, on examiming the code, I saw that each character in the input was passed through a function, where a series of add and sub operations were done and finally it was compared to a value. So I wrote the following code to parse the assembly, recognize functions and simulate add, sub, and cmp instructions. Since the functions were correctly sorted in address I didn't have to check their calling. Also the cmp instruction can be read as sub in this case.

```
import telnetlib
import subprocess
tn = telnetlib.Telnet("54.254.178.49", port = 12003) # there was some problem with DNS resolution, so this
print tn.read_until('\n')
while 1:
a = tn.read_until('\n')[:-1]
# a = " 0d88ee8a1943652170db2f47cf5d9049a954aaf71fbe8150489a467ddf8e7564"
print a
if flag in a:
break
cmd = "objdump " + a + " -d -M intel"
process = subprocess.Popen(cmd.split(), stdout=subprocess.PIPE)
output, error = process.communicate()
o = ''
insideFn = False
c = 0
for i in output.split('\n'):
if 'push rbp' in i:
insideFn = True
c = 0
elif 'pop rbp' in i:
insideFn = False
c = -c # because we are subtracting the cmp instruction operand
if c>0 and c<128:
o+=chr(c)
if insideFn:
if ('sub rdi' in i and '0x' in i) or ('cmp rdi' in i and '0x' in i):
i = int(i.split(',')[1][2:],16)
if i>100000000: # handle -ve values, take 2's complement
i = -(0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-i+1)
c-=i
elif 'add rdi' in i and '0x' in i:
i = int(i.split(',')[1][2:],16)
c+=i
print 'o is ', o
tn.write(o.encode('base64'))

```

Function sample that we needed parsing, from IDA:
