Redaction gone wrong

Author

Mubarak Mikail

Hints

  1. How can you be sure of the redaction?

Description

Now you DON’T see me. This report has some critical data in it, some of which have been redacted correctly, while some were not. Can you find an important key that was not redacted properly?

Approach

We can use pdf2txt to extract all of the text from the PDF.

$ pdf2txt Financial_Report_for_ABC_Labs.pdf
Financial Report for ABC Labs, Kigali, Rwanda for the year 2021.

Breakdown - Just painted over in MS word.
