[OSINT] Breach

Hi everyone, I got the password for the doc txt file and I modify the password so that I am certain that it is the right one, but somehow it doesn’t work. I am not sure what really happens. Can someone confirm?

Hint: no need to use Kali Linux or any password hacking tools.
This is why company password policy tells you to not use password pattern on a every 30 days password change.

can anyone PM me for a hint? i’m brute forcing based on the pattern but with no luck, just solved “we have a leak” and maybe i’m looking at the wrong info? but cant seem to find anything else

i’m stuck at extracting the zip file, and tried around 10 million permutations…

if someone is having the same problem as me, couldn’t extract the “Breach.zip” downloaded from hackthebox where the password is “hackthebox”, I could not extract it on MacOs and thought it was part of the challenge (yes I checked the checksum and it’s correct), spent the whole afternoon brute forcing only to realise that extracting it on linux with the password “hackthebox” worked fine.

just a heads up…

I don’t think this qualify as a spoiler xD

I got the key in the file and I was using on the target, but failed… Am I missing sth?
Please PM me!

You can dm me if you need hints. a very easy challenge if you have solved we have a leak. took just 5 minutes.

Twitter was only useful for me to confirm I was looking at the right asset, but after spending a bit too much time looking at …blurry stuff… I just solved it by “refactoring” a password to make it “up to date”. What did I miss on Twitter?

Never mind. I’m bad at finding Waldo.
