Official Armageddon Discussion

Official discussion thread for Armageddon. Please do not post any spoilers or big hints.

I’m fairly new to HTB, and I’m trying to spawn the machine for 15-20 minutes now, but it gives me an error saying, “Machine is not released yet!”
Is it just me, or is this normal behaviour?

Same here, been waiting for 2 hours to get hands on this machine. But now it says I have to wait 2 more hours LOL

i feel like d***** has something about it

got user (pretty easy), working on root (Y)

Update: Rooted

How did you get user, I got the initial shell as a***he not sure how to become user can u guide me or give me a hint?

Edit: Is it something related to au*****ze.php

I am stuck on a***he. Not getting what to do

looks to me like a lot of manual file reviewing looks to be the answer.

Review:
Foothold: OSINT.
User: just enum and remove certain doubts you might have.
Root: who the **** came up with this standard.

I’m clearly missing something really really obvious as I can’t get so much as a toe-hold.

Got the shell but stuck with the ap*** user !
found a way to change the ad*** password and logged in and got a revshell to find that what i did was useless!
is it all about my**l ?

Find a username and find out his password…

Got user, working on root. I think I might be headed in a rabbit hole…

Got user, for root I think I see the possibilities. Do I have to create a **** for this to work, or is it really much, much simpler?

I have user, stuck on rooting stage. Could anyone give small hint ?

stuck on getting the user… any nudges where to look?

Got user in a matter of minutes. Root is giving me trouble.

Got foothold but couldn’t find info for user. Anyone give me a hint plz?
