Man I had seen a challenge similar to the last one in some CTF but I couldn't solve it and weeks later, I forgot name of the CTF so I couldn't search for its writeup 😅. But now I found challenge similar to it. Thanks man really appreciate your efforts ❤️.
never 😆 it was a great CTF but I don't have time to cover all challenges, especially when there's multiple competitions every week. I typically either: a) pick a category b) solve easy-ish challs from multiple category c) pick 1-2 hard challenges angstrom CTF video is coming later today though, containing a few pwn challs 😉
I was just able to do prisoner haha. When see you do it, becomes so easy. But i learn a lot from your video's. Spend hours on that Jurassic Park, now i learn about robot.txt! Next goal is next time reach top1500 or so haha. Really love to know how solve Degradation. Enjoy how you explain things as well. Have great weekend!
@CryptoCat yes already did watch them (good content === new subscriber :D), i did know this channel when i was trying to do babysteps challenge, still couldn't solve it 🙃
@@khalilbouzidi8432 there was a few ways to solve babysteps, i just used ret2libc which comes up a lot in CTFs although this was 32-bit, which is less common: github.com/Crypto-Cat/CTF/blob/main/ctf_events/nahamcon_22/pwn/babysteps.py
Just when I want to search for write ups, I found this. Perfect timing. Couldn't join the event at that time so will make use of this, thanks! Edit: was going to try dirbuster of some sort, but it is not allowed apparently, at least according to the rules
Yeh, that's typically the case with CTFs, no automated tools. They normally say that due to the infrastructure though. I think it makes a lot less sense as a rule when each player has their own instance. I guess the challenges are designed to be solved without brute force though 😅
@@_CryptoCat yeah I agree with that part. Brute forcing kinda take the beauty out of it to be honest, even though it does make it harder. Not gonna lie, dirb was always on my mind when I was attempting, and have to keep reminding myself haha. Thanks again for the video!
@@SuperSohaizai It really wasn't needed here, I just thought I'd include it in because it's one of the first things you'd do on a HTB machine, or in a real pentest. Knowing my luck people will do in CTF events now and get suspended for breaking rules: "😮 but I learnt it from CryptoCat?!" 🤣 Thank you! 🙏🥰
nah haha a teammate solved it and i didn't have all that much time. I was just going to pick 1 hard chall.. then couldn't solve any and did a few web instead 😂 I struggled enough with some of the xss ones bc im a n00b 😆
