osrc.zip was an archive leaked to /ppg/ on April 11, 2020, holding the source code for Pokémon Blue and Pokémon Yellow. osrc.zip was not password protected, but it contained a password-protected ZIP file named "OriginalSouce.zip", along with "readme.txt", a note left there by the leaker:

"not giving pass. the zip file has in it the final YellowUS rom, crc matches. use that for your known plaintext attack, it'll take seconds." - based leaker anon, 2020

The password was later cracked, and found to be "poke1024". [1][2]
