Finally finished this box. It has been the most difficult (and elaborate) so far, really a lot of work went into this. Thanks to the maker for giving us the opportunity to improve our skills. I learned a lot, getting a little deeper with msf, honing enum skills. I really appreciated the sl vuln in the w**s service. That was a flavor I hadn’t come across yet. Also, finished strong with old school disassembly.
I’ve kept notes of how I solved it, so if anyone needs some nudges, let me know.
