[dusky smelt]

It's interesting is it? 😄

[heavy crane]

lol i havnt done anything wrong tho

[crimson crypt]

@heavy crane Ethics are a matter of principle, it’s better to die poor than to stoop to certain levels. Maybe you don’t know people who’ve done it and you only see the world through social media. Trust someone who knows people who lowered themselves for money… there’s a price to pay, and once you cross that line, you can’t go back, and even if you do, you won’t be the same anymore.

[molten bobcat]

you're trying to.

[heavy crane]

im not.

[heavy crane]

wait till i do

thats ur job

[quasi ridge]

[turbid goblet]

[molten bobcat]

zero idea of the value of money

[heavy crane]

bro in the uk

100k is like 50 k

cause 50 percent tax

so yeah its not that good

[dusky smelt]

you're the type of guy who would do OPSEC Fail

[quasi ridge]

regardless of it's being more like 70k after inflation these days, you are 100% on the money because few have it

[dusky smelt]

no offense

[heavy crane]

[molten bobcat]

[mystic harbor]

@supple plume bald guy

[quasi ridge]

@signal mica prolly more to come in the night...now that they can hide launchers

[crimson crypt]

It was fun, but someone who insults like that should be moderated immediately.

[rancid snow]

the people who scoff at 100k are either millionaires that make significantly more, or delusional wannabe millionaires that make significantly less

[signal mica]

i will meditate and manifest your safety gushu

[molten bobcat]

[zealous charm]

[warm ravine]

Oh dear..

I'm completely stressed right now

[hollow kayak]

guys how do i get the input key for a CTF?

[supple plume]

Is the network thing you said earlier?

[hollow kayak]

??

[supple plume]

Try searching in this emoji with stego

[hollow kayak]

bro pls tell

[warm ravine]

I mean I fixed it just now
What I'm a bit nervous about that my brain goes to "full defensive mode" when I do something wrong

[hollow kayak]

i am new to HTB ctf

[warm ravine]

And stays till I fix the probkem

[hollow kayak]

been in thm all these days

[supple plume]

Wdym input key?

[hollow kayak]

certain ctf are private and they require a input key

which then allows u to sign up for that ctf

so i want to know where can i get it

?

[supple plume]

I wasn't even aware there was active htb ctfs at this moment

[cerulean bloom]

no CTFs are private in HTB

if they are accepted, they are released

[hollow kayak]

there are bro

[cerulean bloom]

those are probably retired ones

which only pro users have access to

pro sub

[devout sail]

Ping any staff, they got the black book

[hollow kayak]

all the upcoming ctfs are private

[short hollow]

uh is the black book like the holy grail

[hollow kayak]

atleast some which i checked

[cerulean bloom]

those are those that are going to be released soon

[devout sail]

Read challenge description, sometimes it's there
Or just forget about it.
It's private for a reason

[supple plume]

You need to born again you're all wrong

[devout sail]

Something like that yes

[supple plume]

Go back to the womb

[distant oxide]

hey guys...

need some technical help...

[hollow kayak]

and so then they are going to be public?

[short hollow]

uh what

[distant oxide]

how to get a free VPS or any c2 acting server for free? I was thinking of using google colab with workarounds, but starting up takes time and no 24/7

[short hollow]

mmm so any staff

[hollow kayak]

ok
btw u really got a funny badge tho...

[devout sail]

W1ld

[devout sail]

😁

[cerulean bloom]

okay, here's how it works
someone (or some HTB employee) creates a machine/challenge. then, if it gets accepted, at some point, it will be released

then, at some point, it becomes retired

when only VIP+ users can now solve

[supple plume]

Yeah ping 0xwild with the question

[hollow kayak]

yeah so when it will be released it will be public?

[supple plume]

Or even marcielee

[short hollow]

ok thanks

[cerulean bloom]

it depends on the machine

or challenge

[supple plume]

MarcieLee

[short hollow]

@warped plank

@obtuse fern

[devout sail]

Usually Nothing is free
But some do give free tier
Like AWS or something
Just google
But you'll need to add payment info, cuz they need to somehow trap u

[hollow kayak]

so what about the ctfs that are under "upcoming" i need to an input key to sign up right?

[cerulean bloom]

no

those will just have a machine and vpn file needed

usually new ones need a release openvpn file
other active machines depend on which vpn server you use

[hollow kayak]

go and check it out yourself

[cerulean bloom]

? could you give me a link?

cuz I might be misunderstanding here

[hollow kayak]

https://ctf.hackthebox.com/event/details/sj-capture-the-flag-2026-3161

here

[cerulean bloom]

oh, actual CTFs

sometimes, challenges in thm are called ctfs

so I thought youw ere talking about those

[dusky smelt]

I've got a question for silver annual, if I buy a silver annual today will it expire in 1 year or at the end of the year 2026? (this might be a stupid question but I saw something like a month ago about I think about this and I saw someone said that it expires at the end of the year no matter when you buy it)

[hollow kayak]

bruh

dude

[cerulean bloom]

those, you probably need perm from the creator

[hollow kayak]

and how do i get it?

[cerulean bloom]

you contact the creator

[devout sail]

It lasts 365 says i assume, but asking on support is better

[cerulean bloom]

if the CTF is private, it's probably private for a reason

[west lynx]

https://help.hackthebox.com/en/articles/5986762-contacting-htb-support

[hollow kayak]

how?
there seems to be no contact dets of link?

[devout sail]

@dusky smelt

[dusky smelt]

yep, thank you so much

[cerulean bloom]

then, they probably have it private for a reason

[hollow kayak]

do i use this to contact the creator?

[cerulean bloom]

no

thats for support on the site

[distant oxide]

yeah. ofc. though... need to find some work arounds....

[cerulean bloom]

but it seems like nothing is set for this CTF rn

so you'll either have to wait for it to be POSSIBLY public
or it just stays public, and if there is a way, you contact the creator

[hollow kayak]

so how do i contact?

[hollow kayak]

ok

[cerulean bloom]

look
if there are no contact methods, there really aren't any methods to contact the owner

some CTFs are set on private for a reason

where only selected people can join

[obtuse fern]

Its 1 year from purchase date

[short hollow]

guys any of u play watchdogs

[sleek sedge]

Look at the cool stuff I got

[dusky smelt]

tysmm

[distant oxide]

Still, someone answered here. The lads in THM are unscrupulous! Perhaps, @devout sail , I should say thanks, mate

[cerulean bloom]

Marcie, make sure to look up as well, user kinda talking about illegal stuff

[obtuse fern]

Private ctfs stay private

[obtuse fern]

Fuckin send a screenshot, I really dont want to dig through chat history

[cerulean bloom]

ah, they can't be changed? gotcha
@hollow kayak

[dusky smelt]

I've started playing some of watch dogs 2 but never got a chance to continue, It's nice tho

How old are you

[bronze lion]

Nah your are fine

[molten bobcat]

You're not slow

[bronze lion]

The learning and understanding speed of each individuals differ

Everything I've learned was free, either from YT or HTB, but now I'm thinking about taking the Junior Cybersecurity Analyst course from HTB.

[bronze lion]

Go on ur own pace

[tidal nexus]

wsgg

[fading oyster]

e ?

[molten bobcat]

Just do your best and ask questions if you get stuck

[dusky smelt]

and it took me almost 2 years cause I am one lazy piece of shit

[molten bobcat]

That's what the server is for

[dusky smelt]

but I still learned some things

[molten bobcat]

If you don't understand something just ask

[short hollow]

I tried the first one and had no clue what to do

[dusky smelt]

so don't bother with time tho

[short hollow]

I found the password?

[fading oyster]

yep i made several friends here

[short hollow]

that was it

[molten bobcat]

Starting point shows you how to interact with machines and gives you a feel for how actual boxes feel. Academy is for folks who don't know nothin

[dusky smelt]

start with tier 0 and everything stated in the beginner's bible which few people sent already then consider moving on machines on which you can practice and learn more things with each machine

[bronze lion]

Academy is for ppl who don't know anything ?

[short hollow]

Okay, like I mentioned earlier I only KNOW (not do) how to grab IP n basic stuff like that, no real knowledge on this stuff

[molten bobcat]

We don't "grab ips"

[short hollow]

I dont

🖐️ 😁 🖐️

[molten bobcat]

Nah what I mean is

That terminology means nothing

[fading oyster]

agree

[supple plume]

We grab

[fading oyster]

demn

[short hollow]

Im confused on everythind

g

[molten bobcat]

S'all good

It just helps to

Ditch what you think you know?

[fading oyster]

from where should i begin ?

[molten bobcat]

All the tier 0 modules in Academy are great

Pick one that speaks to you

[short hollow]

Ah I see

[azure wasp]

Where I begun I call it hell

[short hollow]

be

t

[fading oyster]

oh

[molten bobcat]

I recommend introduction to networking

[bronze lion]

Ok sounds like you are just at a complete beginner stage. So do u know basic IT, technical stuffs or?

[molten bobcat]

It teaches you how computers talk to one another

Which is very important to understand for infosec

[short hollow]

Uh elaborate

[short hollow]

ok

[supple plume]

I probably could take this one and still learn a couple of things

[molten bobcat]

If a computer breaks, can you fix it?

I can

[unkempt cradle]

hello

[molten bobcat]

Solve a module

[cerulean bloom]

you get like 60 from the beginning, no?

[molten bobcat]

They return cubes for completion

[unkempt cradle]

i solved all

[molten bobcat]

I don't believe you

Lmao

[unkempt cradle]

??

[molten bobcat]

There's quite a few of them

[unkempt cradle]

man im at the last part of cwes that big bounty hunting process is of 50 cubes ive 40

[cerulean bloom]

at least 200+?

[short hollow]

where dis one at

[molten bobcat]

Academy

[short hollow]

ok

uh

teach you're not gna believe this

[manic anvil]

"in today's video we will learn how to troubleshot a server but before we start i want to introduce you to today's video sponsor raid shadow"

[bronze lion]

Before learning hacking or cybersecurity u should be comfortable using computeers beyond the normal daily use. Like understanding how systems, networks, and software actally work.

[short hollow]

mm I've never done that before

[supple plume]

Install arch, uninstall arch, install windows, then ubuntu dual boot, then wipe everything and install ubuntu. Then start learning linux

[spark mulch]

install guix

[dusky smelt]

but never use any command that starts with sudo rm

[short hollow]

?

[azure wasp]

Blackarch is good for beginners

[short hollow]

ts might not be english

wtf is a guix yo a pokemon

[bronze lion]

This involves some basic skills like can u troubleshoot when something breaks, can u google errors , do u know basic linux commands like (cd, ls, mkdir,ipcomfig etc..), to zip and unzip files. Know what IP actually is and what's the use etc

[slate whale]

sudo apt install linux ✍️🔥

[azure wasp]

Sudo apt install opsec

[short hollow]

uh yeah none of that

[spark mulch]

it's like NixOS but GNU and uses Guile Scheme (lisp) for its declarations

[short hollow]

uh how do I tell you I don't know what any of that is

[spark mulch]

go learn about those things they're cool

[slate whale]

I learned alll of this without trying to, juste by usiing linux and coding so compiling in c++

[bronze lion]

Ok so just leave the thought of starting to learn cybersec for now kn focus on the fundamentala . I dam assure u that ur progress will boost like 2x or 3x if u get a grasp of those

[short hollow]

where do I start that

[slate whale]

These are things you learn by being curious and using Linux

[zealous charm]

Time to do real bug hunting to cover 10 cubes

[spark mulch]

start here http://tcpipguide.com/

learn how the internet works

[bronze lion]

1 skill you should have.
To Google stuffs

[supple plume]

pip install knowledge

[molten bobcat]

I literally gave them the networking fundamentals module

[short hollow]

im in that too

[azure wasp]

pip3

[molten bobcat]

It's all the same info just in different formats

[supple plume]

I use pip

[molten bobcat]

Pick one lol

[short hollow]

ah

[azure wasp]

I use pip3

[short hollow]

ill use urs since i have it up

[supple plume]

You could give them the libraries of Alexandria and they will still ask for something else

[spark mulch]

none of you use pip or pip3 because you're all KaliHeads and use pipx

[wet fossil]

hello bro you finished the starting point in HTB academy?

[molten bobcat]

[azure wasp]

Is there starting point in academy? I’m doing tier 0

[wet fossil]

[supple plume]

[zealous charm]

Cardio? All the fitness influence are shilling zone 2 these days

[zealous charm]

Did some hacking, went to the casino, drank some beer, now back home

[hoary cove]

I was doing Hercules today

It humbled me

💀

[supple plume]

So if you're living my dreamlife who tf dreamlife am I living

[maiden anvil]

nice! hope you enjoy the weekend my guy

[supple plume]

Some day I will be gambling and brewing beer

[hoary cove]

I haven't had a beer in a long while

Now that you mentioned it

I am craving one lol

[zealous charm]

I don’t do much gambling, but the casino has $3 beers, so it’s nice to go and have a cheap beer and people-watch

Then of course gamble a few bucks

[austere sinew]

@maiden anvil @meager kernel

[zealous charm]

[supple plume]

Same I just enjoy some rulette like once every 2 years

I got something legendary rn

I bought a ticket train for 0.00€

You can go everywhere with this but only 1 trip

[rancid snow]

thanks for the free ticket

[mystic harbor]

No ignoring

[azure wasp]

My ticket

[lime trout]

Cheap casinos? Damn

Inb4 6-5 and 000

[zealous charm]

Hell yeah, august is the time for Vegas, until then cheap casinos

[lime trout]

Vegas ain’t worth it tbh

Too expensive

[zealous charm]

Yeah I probably won’t do defcon this year

But might do BH

[lime trout]

I don’t have a choice for that lol

But no point to gambling there

[zealous charm]

I’ll allow 1% of my income to go toward Vegas gambling

[lime trout]

I don’t think $1 will do much /s

[zealous charm]

[maiden anvil]

@zealous charm I developed a secret kung fu technique while I was out walking just now

if I had to fight 20 armed men I would first see red and gain super strength

then I would hit them with the COBRA CLAW technique

[lime trout]

Can you write off gambling as a business expense if you goto Vegas for work /s

[zealous charm]

My AI token spending will definitely be a business expense this year

[lime trout]

Are you building automated kill drones

[supple plume]

How much aprox

[zealous charm]

In feb I spent about $2k on various AI subscriptions + extra usage. The return on that had been over $10k for bug bounty

[supple plume]

Wth

2k is too much

[zealous charm]

I’ll take 2k spend for over 8k profit any day

[supple plume]

Yeah but was it necessary to spend the whole 2k or you were experimenting?

[zealous charm]

Lots of experimenting to get a decent workflow down

[supple plume]

Nice

[supple plume]

More or less how does this workflow works in simple terms

[zealous charm]

Mostly code review

[supple plume]

Hmm

[zealous charm]

AI (at this point) is really only good for whitebox

[supple plume]

Well I've seen claude skipping key things too. But it is very good

[zealous charm]

I think it comes down to prompting, I shared some tips previously that have worked for me

^

[lime trout]

use AI to launch a new crypto "project"

[zealous charm]

I'm sure some are using it for that, or even web3 code review. I've just looked at a few web2 BBPs

[ocean marsh]

cube coin when

[lime trout]

never

[azure remnant]

i would tell a joke and they will die from laughing

[crimson crypt]

Good Saturday evening, folks 🫡

[zealous charm]

@supple plume here's a good thread for you about emerging AI in bug bounty:

https://x.com/rez0__/status/2027448137133264955

Joseph Thacker (@rez0__)

It is hard to communicate how much bug bounty has changed due to AI in the last 2 months: not gradually and over time in the "progress as usual" way, but specifically this last December. There are a number of asterisks but imo coding agents basically didn't work for security

"Hello everyone,

As a cybersecurity student deeply interested in the Hack The Box ecosystem, I am looking for some guidance regarding my current training resources.

I hold an unactivated VIP+ voucher for the Main Platform. However, given my current learning path, I believe that the structured modules on HTB Academy would be more beneficial for mastering the fundamentals before diving into the labs.

Does anyone know if there is a possibility to exchange or convert a Main Platform voucher into Academy Cubes or a Student Subscription?

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.

Best regards,"

I doubt it, but you'd have to reach out to support on the site and ask, no support is provided over Discord.

That is you current choice

[alpine pumice]

for what, just ask here

[verbal remnant]

Is it possible to change my VIP+ with an interested person for cubes?

[alpine pumice]

As I said before, no one on here can tell you. You need to reach out to support on the website no support is provided on Discord.

Most likely no though

[frozen zinc]

Mr Brewer, is cewl still relevant or there are betters tools for the job? (like not in ruby)

[zealous charm]

In my career I've never used cewl, but there are now tools like cewlAI

[frozen zinc]

oh wow ofc

really you never had to use it? not even for CTFs?

[azure wasp]

[zealous charm]

Nope, never used it in 6 years of bug bounty and 4 years of professional pentesting

[frozen zinc]

wow

ok i guess is not that important then xD

[royal prism]

This is a weird ask, but just wondering if I were to join a Vc in here and stream the academy would anyone be willing to join and help guide/explain?

[devout sail]

Maybe if someone is bored

Or free

[royal prism]

Im super new, so im just trying to get a ground footing

[devout sail]

Mhm VC support needs too much effort
You can ask stuff in chat for better support tho

Here or #modules etc

Or honey trap someone to join VC
-# (Works only for a few people)

[rustic carbon]

Sure no sweat

Only 1 issue: its push to talk for me, so if you want you can call me in DMs I can explain

[warm dome]

guru lowkey such a grind, just challenge after challenge

[royal prism]

I appreciate it! I’m just at work right now but mind if I add you for later?

[rustic carbon]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

All good

[rustic carbon]

Gang shi boss gon be a guru soon

Mad respect

[royal prism]

Added!

[rustic carbon]

Ay don't give up on academy in the meanwhile, i believe in you

[warm dome]

like dont get me wrong elite is a grind still, but guru makes you do so many damn challenges, i think every 5 challenges is like 1% progress and elite is like all machines and 40ish challenges for 70%, guru needs 90% and only has challenges after that point unless you just done bulk challenges before

[rustic carbon]

Isn't guru just solving 90% boxes that are active not including seasonal?

[warm dome]

nope includues challenges as well

both machines and challenges contribute

[rustic carbon]

Faaaaq

Thass wild

They changed it?

[warm dome]

i thinkall machine for a season is like pro hacker?

[rustic carbon]

💪💪💪💪

Gang shi

😩

[warm dome]

ohh that makes sense, its changed a few times between when i started and now

[rustic carbon]

Zamn

They had it easy back then

😩

[warm dome]

yeah i had an old account from hs when i joined in like 2016ish i think it was but that acc is long gone

but didnt really have rank on it either

mine was just a really old email and i stopped using the email and forgot details

was like one i made like 20years ago

[scenic maple]

bro hating

have an offer pending
we shall see

[azure wasp]

[scenic maple]

i didnt

[warm dome]

nah mods are usually pretty chill unless you do dumb shit tbh

[short hollow]

Yo salah

Can I get your shirt bro

[molten bobcat]

Punk bitch lmao

@ me directly if you feel like making stupid accusations

[balmy basalt]

You know... I don't think we have much use for an obvious alt showing up to just dunk on people.

[molten bobcat]

Appreciate it NW

I have zero clue what this homies deal is lmao

I hope you know that my life isn't gonna end even if I fail the exam lol

Like, dude

Get a grip

I guess we'll never know

[austere sinew]

You look so stupid lol, it was over a m-

what is going on

😭

[molten bobcat]

Bot cleanup

[austere sinew]

oh he got banned

rip

[balmy basalt]

Somebody with too much time on their hand creating an alt to dunk on people in a random discord.

[molten bobcat]

Once again, thanks sir 😄

[rapid badger]

Ripbozo

[molten bobcat]

I need y'all to understand that failing an exam doesn't define you as an individual

Also, it was because I didn't add screenshots

So like

[austere sinew]

even then i was laughing because it was over the screenshots technicality

[molten bobcat]

My report has since been fixed and resubmitted, it's not that big of a deal lmao

[heady sage]

an admittedly dumb thing to fail someone over

[austere sinew]

he made it out that it was so much bigger than it was, what a douche

[molten bobcat]

It's been corrected

So it's all good

[rapid badger]

I mean, we can still laugh at you for that. That guy just sounded sour which is not funny at all

[molten bobcat]

But yeah also "ancient log nomad" is what my friend bakki called me because he was calling me old

[austere sinew]

that guy was so mentally ill lol

making a bot just to beef cloud is insane

[balmy basalt]

I do wonder sometimes. Amazing what people will chose to live in their head rent free.

[molten bobcat]

I genuinely gather so much hate and I don't know why lmao

[austere sinew]

beats me, you're a good guy in my books

[molten bobcat]

I got called "pompous" but like I'm wrong all the time

I'm just a dude

[austere sinew]

if someone has an issue with you and it's not over something you've done directly like a big deal it says more about them than you.

[balmy basalt]

Genuinely only explanation I have is some people are just haters for lack of a better term and you are online so front of mind?

[molten bobcat]

Tis the way the world works

[turbid goblet]

ok i finished all the starting point machines and feel dumber than i did before them

i think its working

[devout sail]

Hehe with that pfp it looks funny

[molten bobcat]

I didn't ever think I'd get to the point in my life where I have haters??

I thought that was for famous people or folks with talent

[austere sinew]

I have haters too - take it as a compliment that you have a personality

[devout sail]

You can easily get to that point by being invisible 🫥

[balmy basalt]

Some people are online too much.

[rancid snow]

'oh but I cant afford a...' bitch you paid at least $200 for the voucher+ modules. Shoulda bought a cheap laptop instead

[undone pawn]

I do have a laptop capable of virtualizing (13900 + rtx4070), but my main machine where my notes are doesn't have anything other than my notes and I don't plan on changing that

Still, it should be provided a machine with most of the stuff you need.

Most training providers do

🤷‍♂️
