## SolutionFor this challenge we have two files. A generator script and the output of the script containing the encrypted flag. 
```from Crypto.Util.number import getRandomNBitInteger
flag = int.from_bytes(b"uiuctf{******************}", "big")
a = getRandomNBitInteger(256)b = getRandomNBitInteger(256)a_ = getRandomNBitInteger(256)b_ = getRandomNBitInteger(256)
M = a * b - 1e = a_ * M + ad = b_ * M + b
n = (e * d - 1) // M
c = (flag * e) % n
print(f"{e = }")print(f"{n = }")print(f"{c = }")```
Most of the code can be ignored, the interesting part is how the encryption is done: `c = (flag * e) % n`. Since we have `n` and `e` we can retrieve the flag by multiplying `c` with the inverse of `e`.
`c = (flag * e) % n`\`c * e^-1 = (flag * e * e^-1) % n`\`c * e^-1 = flag % n`
```pythonfrom Crypto.Util.number import inverse
e = 359050389152821553416139581503505347057925208560451864426634100333116560422313639260283981496824920089789497818520105189684311823250795520058111763310428202654439351922361722731557743640799254622423104811120692862884666323623693713n = 26866112476805004406608209986673337296216833710860089901238432952384811714684404001885354052039112340209557226256650661186843726925958125334974412111471244462419577294051744141817411512295364953687829707132828973068538495834511391553765427956458757286710053986810998890293154443240352924460801124219510584689c = 67743374462448582107440168513687520434594529331821740737396116407928111043815084665002104196754020530469360539253323738935708414363005373458782041955450278954348306401542374309788938720659206881893349940765268153223129964864641817170395527170138553388816095842842667443210645457879043383345869
