Navigated to the site and right away it looks like its asking us to do a buffer overflow and show us what address we should be changing.

Downloaded the files that came with the challenge. It  gives us a pwntool script and the binary. 

Edited the code since it tells us the target is at 48bytes and put in the IP and port. Ran it and it gave me the flag.
