hi,i think i’m in the final step,i try to add some script in lh_,but what’s next?i can’t restart l*h.
if anyone has any ideas please PM me.
It runs automatically as long as it’s in the right place.
Are you sure it runs automatically ? I’ve seen it being triggered at different intervals and was under the impression someone else must have triggered it for me.

Hmm… I’ll have to go back and revisit. I was under the impression it ran automatically as part of the logging process. FWIW I ran several different command while messing with the box after getting root.txt and there were no other files there.
hi, this my first maschine im doing. I got stuck on root priv_esc … maybe someone can confirm im on the right track or not:
iam user k*****
i added something on the bottom of a file s********s
when i try to execute it manually it kind a tells me iam not root…
it seems not to be executed… waiting for around 30 mins… or should i be more patient…?
… @JoyDragon thx for the maschine i already learned a lot her!
Same situation. Stuck since yesterday. I will appreciate any hints on DM.
Edit: Done. Nightmare.
Edit2: To be clear - it was nightmare for me to root the machine due to lack of knowledge of ELK stack as well as lack of experiance. The box itself is great, the ctf-like user part is fun!
Finally rooted. Thanks to @Nick the man and to @dalemazza. There are tons of great hints in this thread already.
I don’t understand why this box has so many downvotes. You can easily find out e*******h commands from google, use those to dump all the info and then use grep on that to find the keyword the needle gave you. PrivEsc on this box is also really cool.
Make sure to change the filename at the very last stage of root if you change something on the file. And feel free to pm me for help.
An empty response which comes immedietly, may mean that something has connected to your nc. Have you tried a command in that box?
Also, it seemed to be a little like, once the exploit had been used, it’s unusable for the next person to come. I had that issue when i accidently closed my shell…
Finally got root. I really enjoyed this one. It would have taken me way longer if the forum here hadn’t suggested to go from s* user to k* user before heading to root. There seems to be some amazing minds here on htb.
