As much as I hated this for the time it took, the clock watching element is probably pretty realistic Good lab to learn, and work fast
That machine taught me a lot.
Specialy getting a root shellā¦ Awesome.
Getting shell was not too realistic, changing some info to confuse scanners is something clever but strange. Getting root was fun, had a chance to practise python skills.
can someone pm me for initial steps ?
CAn someone PM for final priv esc, so close yet so far
nvm root
Very nice machine. Root was very interesting. Thanks to @wirepigeon for hint
Any hints on initial foot hold for user.txt
I found two web-services the first MONSTER doesnt let me do anything the other one which has WORDS that are PRESSED onto the screen has some funky redirecting going on but i cant login to that serviceā¦ am i missing something?
why the ā ā ā ā is integrity check not working for me? I manually changed a file in web dir to create a difference but when I run that binary, no comparison is found
Difference was detected only once in like 1000 tries and this just doesnāt make any sense. I kept repeating same process, files are different but still it isnāt detecting
What am I doing wrong here?
nvm got the root flag without shell
This machine reminds me exactly of an OSCP exam machine. Just keep enumerating till end. I am happy that I didnāt stop enumeration during exam.
Priv esc is so much mind f***
Would be grateful if anyone could DM me with a hint on how to proceed (even reference to reading material). I have identified the the 2 apps and I am currently enumerating the no to obvious one. But seems I am not heading anywhere

Rooted! Wow that was a tough priv esc but so cleverly put together! Mad props to the makers even if @3mrgnc3 is an absolute troll lol. PM me if anyone needs a hint at any stage of the box.

1 week out from OSCP retest & would love some privesc pointers, not spoilers
Got O* shell; might understand retartar (grp) but canāt find diff/script talked. found 3 diff files but at a lossā¦
Hey guys please PM me I need help on this box Iāve been trying to get user for like 2 weeks now

do enumeration steps as taught in oscpā¦
try not to follow advice in the forums. There are many many wrong suggestions in here.
Do your own enum and you will find it.
Good luck
lol, I know right? I actually found a script via enumeration but didnāt realize it, just not sure what to do with it.
My first guess was a local service I enumād, (very OSCP) but couldnāt figure out the password to access.
Completely lostā¦ Iāve done an extensive amount of enumeration and still canāt find the initial foothold. Any help via pm would be greatly appreciated.
Would anyone please PM me about privesc process? Iāve found the script, but canāt write to it. I tried linking the root file in order to break the certain process. Iāve tried a metric ā ā ā ā -ton of stuff and no of it has worked. Any assistance would be appreciated.
EDIT: This box privesc is all about timing. Finally got it.
Troll machineā¦
Curse the day I decided ālooks pretty doableā. Iām in the same boat as @Rayvenhawk and could use some help. Might not survive the night if I canāt get a hint thatās not trolling me.
Trolls everywhere, send backup. Over.
