Stats of the challenge.

In this problem we have two files: a zip file with password and an image. Check the challenge here.

Once you translate the colors and the morse code to text, you'll get the password for the zip file. In this case it was 9. But after that the problem gets recursive. And the colors are not the same, they are over a 1,000 steps for this problem.

So, you need a generic solution that would work with any pair of colors. So, here it is:

Code

Script to make it recursive

We need to run the decoder until we don't have any more png files to analyze.

Finally, the flag is HTB{D0_y0u_L1k3_m0r53??}
