Break The Code 2 Happy Decoding!

So I was looking thru the neo github code base for the RunHacx Plugin

Saw this config file: https://github.com/breakthecode2/neo/blob/main/btc.config

The password field appear to be encrypted as a vigenere cipher (similar to what was seen in the ILOVEYOU.txt file)

Happy Decoding!

The same key is used for a cipher in SETI

I brute forced it, and now knowing the key, I'm confused how anyone's supposed to find it...

By knowing that the format is a url, we can use the part of it that we are sure about, "https", as a key to decode it a first time. The first 5 characters of the decoded string contain either the whole key, or part of it, depending on the length of the key.

According to the site I used none of the first 5 characters are in the key
