+Similar to the last one, we only have a hash of the flag in `/root/flag`.
+If we look at the build steps with `docker image history --no-trunc challenge`, it is now copying the file, hashing it then removing it.
+
+Docker images consist of many layers in a specific order, where each layer modifies the filesystem in some way. Each build instruction maps to at most one layer. When we add the flag file, a new layer is created with it in it, and even if we remove the flag later, that layer is still part of our image.
+
+To get to it, we save the image as a tar (`docker save challenge > challenge.tar`), then extract it.
+
+Each layer has a folder with a long hash, and a `layer.tar` inside that.
+To quickly search through them all, I used this command:`find -iname '*.tar' -exec sh -c 'echo {}; tar -tf {} | grep FLAG' \;` - this prints out the layer hash, followed by all files inside it containing `FLAG`.
+
+We see only one layer has the `FLAG` file, and once we extract it we can read `opt/flag` to get `punk_{53GAEP9LAWODTO0T}`.
