Official ██████ Holiday Challenge

Find a crack for AES256.
Winner is the first to post the contents of insurance.aes256.
Brute-force is acceptable but not recommended.

AES 256 is small-time, AES128 is harder to crack.

I thought they already found the key. Or was that bullshit?

Yes, it was.
Some ass encrypted a similarly-sized file with the password "ONION" and then posted a video of himself "cracking" it to YouTube.

Hi Hillary Clinton!

How about Double-AES?

Assange should of used ROT13, twice for more security -- right guise? XD :) xkcd (Score 5: Funny) rand(@ll)

He meant that aes256 was implemented by ``faggots'' and attack was found against it. And that attack cannot be done in aes128.
I'll switch to 256 ROT13 for a while

AES to AES ?

Yes, it works especially fine in CTR mode; zomg-optimize by using the same seed on the same block!
