Problem

Dressing up dogs are kinda the new thing, see if you can get this lovely girl ready for her costume party. Dog Or Frog

Solution

When we visit the page, we are greeted with a submission form. The instructions tell us that this is a machine learning problem and to not approach it as a web-exploitation problem. The goal is to submit an image that is similar (on a byte-by-byte basis) that is similar to the dog, but is recognized as a tree frog.

This type of problem is known as adversarial machine learning. After stumbling around some papers, I found this one, which provided a library suitable for adversarial learning: Cleverhans.
