(1 point) A cryptography student has accidentally used the same keystream to encrypt two different messages, M1 and M2. We know that the
ciphertexts are C1=0x312b6de80e86517f and C2=0xe40b91a2f9e35c93. We also happen to know that M1=0x095caa33ec660e13.
a) What is M7 in hexadecimal? Please give your answer a leading 0x and use lowercase letters only.
b) What is the keystream? Please give your answer a leading 0x and use lowercase letters only.
Hint: These are all 8 byte numbers and will fit in an unsigned long type on most systems.
