Python Automation - Password Hash Cracking
Mission
data.txt holds many sha256 hashes. The flag was split into ordered chunks; each chunk is hashed as sha256("{i}:{chunk}"), and the chunks appear in the shipped wordlist.txt. Brute-force each chunk and concatenate them in order to recover the flag.
Hints
Hint 1 Show
Each line is a sha256 hex; real lines are sha256("{i}:{chunk}") and the chunks are in wordlist.txt
Hint 2 Show
For every word w and index i (0..~30) compute sha256(f"{i}:{w}") and match against data.txt
Hint 3 Show
Sort matched (i, w) by i and concatenate the w values to get the flag
