Finally pwned it! I finally understand why this box was given a medium rating instead of hard.

If anybody needs nudges, please DM me. Always happy to help.

Whew that was rough - rooted!

112

For some reason my revshell keeps disconnecting, any idea why?

113

can you help me ā€¦ my port forwarding is not working

114

Yep, thereā€™s a reset script running. When you get a shell, you need to take pretty quick action, get an ssh shell and you wonā€™t get disconnected.

Rooted :slight_smile:
Nice Box

116

Rooted.

Pretty frustrating that someone was reseting the machine every 5-10 minutes and I had to start over from the beginning.

Finally pwned Backfire! :tada::computer: Couldnā€™t get it before it expired from season, but I came back and got it done. :muscle: If anyone needs help, feel free to reach out!

Research and information gathering. Search for every key information you see as you progress in the machine.
HavC2, Harat, everything and of course, the HTB forum to get insight from others who has done it.
