Challenge Overview

The task is to determine the legal name of the user debeyohiru/furaigo5. We are given access to their public profile page and are instructed to identify the real name in Latin alphabet, ignoring Kanji or Hiragana.


Initial Assumptions

  1. Public Source Only: We cannot contact the user directly or access private accounts. Only lawful OSINT methods are allowed.
  2. Metadata Clues: Usernames, profiles, and website scripts often contain author or creator metadata.
  3. File References: JavaScript or HTML source files are potential sources of author information.

Investigation Process

Step 1: Inspect the Profile Source

  • Visited https://furaigo5.github.io/profile/index.html.
  • Explored the page structure and located the linked JavaScript file: /js/script.js.

Step 2: Examine the JavaScript File

  • Opened /js/script.js and checked the header comments.
  • Found the author metadata clearly stated:
/**
 * @fileoverview furaigo5 Workspace - メインスクリプト
 * ナビゲーションのスムーズスクロールとモバイルメニューの制御を担当
 * @author Gotanno Tsubasa
 */
  • The @author tag reveals the user’s real name.

Key Findings

  • Source: /js/script.js linked from profile
  • Author / Real Name: Gotanno Tsubasa

Final Flag / Answer

SWIMMER{Gotanno Tsubasa}

Notes & Takeaways

  • Check Source Files: Even when profiles appear anonymous, author metadata in scripts, HTML, or CSS can reveal real names.
  • OSINT Principle: Always start with publicly available sources and inspect client-side files before attempting deeper investigation.
