Same issue, tried resetting multiple times and still doesn’t work.

This is a regularly discussed issue on most boxes.

It appears that HTB’s dynamic flags can malfunction. The way it seems to work is that after a reset the flag gets registered with the scoring server so if the box resets between you getting the flag and you submitting the flag, your flag will be incorrect.

There does seem to be a problem that sometimes the flag isn’t being set, which means the flag you get will never work.

People have suggested a reset is the solution but if this doesn’t work the best thing is to raise a JIRA ticket with HTB to get it resolved. For me, if people don’t raise tickets, HTB will never appreciate what the problem is and won’t know if they need to fix it.
