Quick

Finally rooted! What a ride, although user2 → root was surprising, initial access and pivot was a test!

PM with what you’ve tried, where you are, and what you think needs to happen before giving nuggets

Got user, I can sleep now.

PM if you’re stuck

I feel ya. I was the 200th user flag submitted on this box just a few moments ago. Now I can sleep too!

What a journey it has been

Rooted. Thanks @MrR3boot for the great experience. Foothold and user parts were just awesome.

Spoiler Removed

Does the initial foothold relate to ssl cert of portal… or it is a ■■■■ rabbit hole?

Well ■■■■…rooted, i need a lot of help at the end…still not sure if i confused myself or what… i will go through it one more time. hit me up i will be glad to help. if i miss you i am sorry. lots of pms coming in.

@MrR3boot i think i lost a piece of me on that one haha

Same here !

i have had odd issues but not that one, i was getting socket error but it was self induced

@EvilT0r13 and @Selcius …i think its due to multiple people on the box at the same time

Just have to keep refreshing, or use burpsuite’s repeat…

Could somoene sanity check me? I’m on the portal, working on getting a foothold. I’ve made an exploit and can ping myself from the box, but having trouble doing more. I can elaborate on what I’ve tried in PM if anyone’s got a minute.

Rooted ! Enjoyed the box ! The only issue was the refresh battle in the end. Thanks to @stoneric for the nudge. Kudos to the creator @MrR3boot

if by refresh battle, you mean by lastest site, then using ssh tunnels helped for me

so. tbh.
this was the best and cleanest box yet, c/o @MrR3boot
which is great because sometimes they are a bit fantastical. which is also great but in a completely different way.

this is also a reasonably helpful box for AWAE/OSWE prep, due to certain sections.
so big-BIG thanks to the creator for multiple reasons.

we appreciate you dude, despite the fact that we hate you often.

Can anyone double-check me on something? I have access to the UI with creds found earlier, have a type of callback working and am really close to getting the next level foothold - just stuck on the possible syntax or something really small I’m missing. Thanks.
