@Raphaeangelo pm me so I know where u are

Is the MD5 the right thing? When I put it through the decoder I get giberish out…

The better way is to write a for loop and read the output file in the end. You will have a clear understanding then.

Got passphrase but no clue on username. can someone help

Same here. Just stuck looking for that username

You already have the username, think about it and check your enumeration :wink:

No MD5 sorry to throw you off.

facepalm Yup, I is dumb

I feel dumb too. Got user! PM me if anyone needs help. Now on to root.

Any idea on how to get through the encoding and decoding process ??

Try encoding a few different random things and see what they have in common. Try searching for that.

Someone please give a hint for privilege escalation

Actually i know whats going on it there but the problem is one is encoding into something the other is just decoding it back to that same thing so its getting back to the same thing i have as before

@swatcat91 see what’s going on on the box

Check which kind of encoding has been used.

I’m stuck here too. I’ve run LinEnum and haven’t really found anything. Did you have any luck? PM me if you did.

Got root, but I didn’t really understand what I have done for Priv Esc. Anyone who wants to discuss PM me.

Got root!

I feel like I’m missing something on this one. I have exploited the vulnerability and grabbed the $text field. I’ve also determine what the hype is all about. I’ve figured out how these two things relate to one another, but maybe I just haven’t enumerated a user for this box. Am I on the right track?

Hi just need a pointer I’m looking for the code I think I know format used to make it but i don’t seem to see it in that format. I do seem to see some sort of hash but i don’t think it’s that. (trying not to give too much away)
