Im stuck on the /asdiS********* code, i decoded it and it gave me a bunch of random characters and index.php twic ,i read it is something with magic numbers but i dont figure out what to do next
if you decode it and save the output to a file, what type of file is it?
I know what kind of file it is, but i can’t get it to open in the file manager for that type of file. any tips?
This box totally sucks apart from its priv esc which I learned a lot from. PM me for nudges if you get stuck, although everything you need is already in this thread.
Hi all, I have used our orange friends language and decoded the trinary gobbledy gook from which I got nothing to understand except that part was decoded correctly. Building on that base with my favourite chef got me a bakers dozen bytes which won’t expand. Is that bakers dozen due to a lack of yeast? Do I have the wrong recipe? If you can understand me then perhaps you can help me with the right recipe. Much appreciated.
Edit: @clmtn Gave me a good ingredient to try. Managed to continue on cooking. Respect given.
Need a little nudge in escalation. So I am not very good with bf… however taking some hints from folks here… I have copied the rp file and tried to exploit in my machine. I am able to get syem add and sh*ll address. Using these two I am able to escalated privileges in my Ubuntu box… however when I am trying this on target box… it gives s******on err*r.
Got user flag now looking to escalate out of www. I am pretty sure I found a binary target . I have an idea on what I think I need to do but never really done it before. Could someone please DM with some help/advice?

Yeah someone told me you can do everything on the machine as a www-data user? Can anyone verify that?
Yes - no escalation to another user required for rooting the box!
To everybody struggling with priv esc: I’d recommend again to search for videos on retired boxes that required the same type of BOF - and to practice with one of these boxes if you are VIP.
For me, those videos were the best and fairly self-contained ‘step-by-step’ tutorials for that method. If you rooted one of the old boxes, you should be able to use your old exploit script as a template!
Any recomendations of speciai machines/videos to learn ? Thanks a lot
got the idk password and dirbusting the dirs and subdirs the hole day. Can someone give me please a hint about the location where I can use this?. Thanks
Im on the stage of getting root shell but cannot find the /bin/sh address. I have tried a script and other things but cannot get it. “Somebody! anybody! Help me!!” …please. Thanks
