| Hint | One of our web servers triggered an AV alert, but none of the sysadmins say they were logged onto it. We've taken a network capture before shutting the server down to take a clone of the disk. Can you take a look at the PCAP and see if anything is up? |

Opening the PCAP Next Generation file, we search through the packets and find an unusual GET request to a .txt file with an odd string name.

Taking that filename, JBKEE62NIFXF6ODMOUZV6NZTMFGV6URQMNMH2IBA, and running it through CyberChef with the Magic recipe easily gets us the flag.
