The root.txt file does look weird. Been staring at it for three days. Not sure where to go with it from that point. If anyone has an advice, I’d love to hear it.

Found the next step a few minutes after I posted that. Got root!

I am also having a really hard time getting an initial shell. I have found the thing to get things from the box. I have also seen that certain ports open up when you do something special.

I have not managed to find any creds thus far. Can someone give me a push in the right direction please?

focus on ports you found, maybe no creds are needed…

Well, I got a directory, asks me for creds, put the creds and throws me an 403 error D:
Is this the correct way or i missed something?

@puerkito66 you are on the right track. You are just the missing the correct way to access the service running on this directory

Done)

Hi guys,

I’ve been stuck with the root flag for days. I have tried several things in different “places” without luck. Could someone help me?
