I came across a reverse engineering challenge ;
when i tried to run the comand file i got this :
$ file cast.bin
cast.bin: ELF 64-bit MSB unknown arch 0x3e00 (SYSV)
lets run readelf;
$ readelf -h cast.bin

i edited the 5 bit and rerun the command ;
$ file cast.bin
cast.bin: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, stripped
when i run objdump and readelf i get this :
$ objdump -d cast.bin
BFD: warning: cast.bin has a corrupt string table index
$ readelf -h cast.bin
