One Time Pad and Schrödinger's Pad Cryptography Tutorial

Learn how to solve the "Schrödinger's Pad" cryptography challenge from the Intigriti 1337UP LIVE CTF 2024 in this detailed walkthrough video. Explore the vulnerability of reusing one-time pads (OTP) with a quantum computing twist, where encryption operations vary depending on whether Schrödinger's cat is observed as alive or dead. Begin with an XOR operation review, progress through the challenge's core functionality, understand the critical security flaw in OTP reuse, and discover how to determine the cat's state to decrypt the message. Follow along with the complete solve script demonstration and gain practical experience in cryptographic exploitation techniques.
