Terrible box. I had a go at this around its release date and could not make any progress due to other people crashing the exploitable service all the time. Decided to come back to it later when there were less people on it, and discovered it doesn’t really matter - the service in question crashes repeatedly on its own - being able to exploit it is literally just a matter of dumb luck.
Complete waste of time, do not even bother with this box, it is trash.
I had so many problem with the service that i restarted the box… well, on a clean box, (and i’m on VIP), that localservice wasn’t running any more at all ! I’m going it a last try now but will move on to other things if that doesn’t work.
The privilege escalation path was really painful, I had to restart the box at least 5 times to get the exploit to work. Other than that fun box.
It’s even more nasty than that, because the service automatically restart or at least appears under a different PID… i therefore assumed i didn’t have to care about crashes… i was wrong and wasted hours.
I have user and am working on root. I found the C***.** and the correct exploit for it however im having trouble with getting the p****.*** working right. Looking for some pointers if anyone is willing to help.
I can tell you what ive tried in DM, dont want to post all here.
Hello, I have an admin console in the system. However, when I go to deliver both flags, user and root, I always get an error. This happens to me in both the old and the new interface. Does it happen to anyone else? I left this machine behind a few days ago in case there was any user modifying the flags, today I tried again but I am unable to deliver the flags.

Some help over here … this is my second time that I saw the root.txt but when I try to validated it I have an error… 7ddCENSURED09 …is this de correct flag for root or should I continue looking other Administrator Desktop root.txt file ? I did all with the PLINK -sh and run my exploit correctly sometimes it is cached others not … but when I can keep the session open with root , I copy the Flag as faster that i can but it´s not working don the validator.
I´m not sure if this is and error because I validated my user flag 2 or 3 days ago.

Got my first root ! Thanks everyone here, especially TazWake for the help. I guess it wasn’t that hard when you are used to it, but for a first, I’m pretty happy
