Poison

Hey folks, gonna try to keep this spoiler free. For the privesc on this one

  1. You’re gonna need to free something from the system (in addition to the file).
  2. Not all quotes are created equal.
    Hope this helps, feel free to PM me if you need some more help.

Hi all,
I’ve just find user.txt, but after a while my ssh connection to the VM was closed, and the same password I used for the user now it’s refused, so I can’t enter again.
I can’t figure out this

Hi Guys, I am stuck on the initial phase i.e. at user.txt file.

Can some help me.

Did you get the user.txt yet ? Tell me more in private, i may be able to give you a hint :wink:

I finally got root on this machine a few days ago, and this is my first ‘active’ machine on HackTheBox. Not much pentesting experience, so I’m still quite a noob, but this machine was definately an awesome learning experience.

Good luck!

When do boxes retire?

My first box rooted ever!

cant think of much to the reverse-able algo :frowning: guessing its rot13… any hints?

hi guys anyone to help on decoding the password?

sure… shoot me a pm if you’re still on

Is anyone else having issues with this box? I get in as user and can typically issue a single command then it locks up. I end up killing my local bash and relaunching?

Hey guys I’m stuck on the privesc to get to root. My “program” to use for privesc isnt working need help with the cmds. PM me!

I’m also stuck on pw decoding, I feel like I’m missing somic real obvious…
