This article mainly summarizes the relevant information for python to implement various base conversions, including string and hexadecimal conversion, built-in functionshex() and hex conversion and other related content, friends in need can refer to it, let’s take a look below.

Preface

We often encounter the problem of base conversion when playing CTF, so I just made a summary of base conversion and shared it for your reference. To learn, let’s take a look at the detailed introduction:

String and hexadecimal conversion

For example, Baidu ctf 12 The first misc of the second game of the month


666C61677B65633862326565302D336165392D346332312D613031322D3038616135666137626536377D

A simpler way is to directly call the string's .decode('hex') Just decrypt it, but how would you decrypt it if you didn't use this function?

One idea is to first group 2, solve the ascii value of each group, and merge the strings to get it. The specific code is as follows


import re
s='666C61677B65633862326565302D336165392D346332312D613031322D3038616135666137626536377D'
s = re.findall(r'.{2}',s)
s = map(lambda x:chr(int(x,16)),s)
print ''.join(s)
>>>
flag{ec8b2ee0-3ae9-4c21-a012-08aa5fa7be67}

I mentioned the decode('hex') function of the string before, and there are also two functions for converting to hexadecimal. Let’s summarize them here

The built-in function hex()

can only convert decimal integers to hexadecimal, not strings

The functions of hexlify() and b2a_hex()

in the binascii library are to convert strings into hexadecimal, and the corresponding decryption functions are unhexlify( )anda2b_hex()

Conversion between bases

##Binary, octal, ten Converting hexadecimal to decimal is relatively simple. Directly call the


int function


int(str,base) //返回十进制整数,但注意此时第一个参数为字符串

and the corresponding decryption functions are


bin() //10进制转二进制

oct() //十进制转八进制

hex() //十进制转十六进制

But to directly convert binary to hexadecimal, you need to take one more step. First use int to convert to decimal, and then use the

hex() function mentioned above to convert decimal. In hexadecimal, the simpler writing method is


map(lambda x:hex(int(x,2)),['0011']) //lambda表达式

or

##

[hex(int(x,2)) for x in ['0011']] //列表解析

. The corresponding decryption function is

map(lambda x:bin(int(x,16)),['ef'])

Finally, I attach a small hexadecimal conversion tool I wrote in python. Its main function is to convert a set of binary, or ascii, or hexadecimal into String, I must often encounter this type of question on CTF

# make by 江sir
#coding:utf-8
import re
import argparse
 
def bintostr(text):
 text = text.replace(' ','')
 text = re.findall(r'.{8}',text)
 s = map(lambda x:chr(int(x,2)),text) #批量二进制转十进制
 flag = ''.join(s)
 return flag
 
def asciitostr(text):
 if ' ' in text:
 text = text.split(' ')
 elif ',' in text:
 text = text.split(',')
 s = map(lambda x:chr(int(x)),text)
 flag = ''.join(s)
 return flag
 
def hextostr(text):
 text = re.findall(r'.{2}',text)
 #print text
 s = map(lambda x:chr(int(x,16)),text)
 #print s
 flag = ''.join(s)
 return flag
 
 
if name == 'main':
 parser = argparse.ArgumentParser()
 parser.add_argument("-b")
 parser.add_argument("-a")
 parser.add_argument("-x")
 argv = parser.parse_args()
 #print argv
 if argv.b:
 res = bintostr(argv.b)
 elif argv.a:
 res = asciitostr(argv.a)
 elif argv.x:
 res = hextostr(argv.x)
 print res

Usage:

ten Hexadecimal to string:
