BroncoCTF : Bundle Writeup

BroncoCTF : Bundle Writeup

Short summary

A BroncoCTF writeup where a Krita resource bundle (.bundle) is unpacked as a ZIP to reveal a brush preset (.kpp) that is actually a PNG with embedded XML metadata. The flag is hidden inside a kis_text_brush definition's text attribute within the preset parameters, exploiting Krita's ability to stamp literal text as a brush pattern.

  • Krita .bundle is a ZIP containing brush presets stored as PNG-with-embedded-XML
  • Flag was embedded in a kis_text_brush text parameter inside the .kpp preset metadata
  • exiftool extracts the embedded XML preset block from the PNG metadata chunks
