Another steganography challenge: this one gives us the scenario that a SOC analyst saw an image being sent back and forth between two people and wanted to investigate, giving us a png file. Within the cat output of the file, I found this suspicious string:

hidemeCat

This led me to believe that, once again, this flag was somehow embedded in the given file. By converting the image to .rar and opening it in WinRAR, I was able to find the flag embedded in a folder called secret under the name flag.png: picoCTF{Hiddinng_An_imag3_within_@n_ima9e_85e04ab8}
