Got user, but stuck on getting root. I read most tips but I’ve got no clue what to do atm. I assume I have to use the files inside the a*a folder, but can’t figure out what they’re for…
If anyone could pm me some hints, would be appreciated!
Try and figure out whats happening inside that directory. Once you have that. You’ll know what to do. Why are there files and what are they doing
This box wasn’t hard and there are a few ways of getting a shell.
The finally manuever to obtain root.txt can definitely be overthought. At least, that’s what I initially did. I’m willing to help if someone is stuck. Just tell me what you’ve tried on your own first.
I am stuck on priv esc. I can see what commands are running behind constantly but i dont know what to do with them and i cant edit them either(or maybe i i can i don’t know). Any help would be appreciated
Hey folks, I have been trying from hours to get root :/. Played a lot with files but still don’t know what to do. Can anyone pm me the clue regarding root?
Finally got the root.txt, but I think I did it the hardest way possible using the “w*tch” cmd, I’m a little embarrassed I still cant get the underlying command to output to where I want it to . I know 100% it’s syntactical but wouldn’t mind a little nudge on how to fully hijack this functionaly.
I wrapped the whole string, parts of the string with different quotes …used the bash operator, built in operator, piped input …put it before and after the target… just couldn’t get it to work. it kept breaking the actual function or disregarding my commands
