yeah

[loud marlin]

get on creality discord. quite nice

[winged summit]

what is creality?

[gusty lava]

hey everyone, is there a way to restart my whole progress. I wasn't on THM for long and I want to start fresh 🙂 Hope you are having an great day/evening

[loud marlin]

3d printer brand

[winged summit]

gotcha

[devout palm]

Not entirely. You can reset rooms individually though.

[winged summit]

no sir/ma'am i do not. however, maybe someone else can help. i'm super not into troubleshooting right now

[gusty lava]

Thank you, I will do it that way.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @devout palm (current: #26 - 378)

[fast inlet]

couldnt find any documentation for installing it either so thought it'd be pretty straightforward

[winged summit]

was there a page in the install to specify which tools to install? with like a default option, etc?

[fast inlet]

nope

[winged summit]

it's weird there are no tools

dang

and you got the iso from the official website?

[fast inlet]

yes the kali_purple one specifically

its weird but not sure what went wrong

[winged summit]

interesting. i'm checking the docs. any results from google for your issue?

i would check this out: https://www.google.com/search?q=kali+purple+installs+but+no+tools&rlz=1CADSMM_enUS1157&oq=kali+purple+installs+but+no+tools&aqs=chrome..69i57.4675j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

^ Fina

maybe also try a third-party install guide if it's more helpful. like, google, install kali purple. maybe they'll have handy notes that aren't clear in the official docs

also, you can probably run a terminal command or even use the GUI in Kali Purple rather than do the entire reinstall

to get the tools you need

anyway, i gotta go. gonna learn more from my embedded systems course. talk later. good luck! 🙂

[finite lake]

Question what is the difference between the regular kali machine and the purple one

I mean why could I need one or other one in the first place.

Sorry if this is a dumb question

[oak marsh]

Well the normal one has more offensive tools and less forensics

While purple have more forensics and less offensive

Try both

IE
Normal for red teaming
Purple for security engineers

Atleast what I got from my limited experience

[desert shuttle]

am i wrong or did thm every have the search for a room based on like a tag

[oak marsh]

There are dropdown filters for searches if you mean that

[desert shuttle]

no i mean like tag what the room is about like xss or whatever Reverse Eng

[oak marsh]

No clue but you can find specific things through clicking the text in the skill matrix

XSS would be in the exploitation one for instance

I really love the skill matrix such a cool addition

Pulls up to an interview showing it like
"These are my stats"

[eager marsh]

Kali Purple is very funny

[dark mason]

We have infact, not made it to me national phase of the ctf

[tawny inlet]

Guys

I need help trying to find someone

Old friend of my parents, and kind of also mine

can someone help? What should I do?

[nocturne sinew]

study osint, but if they don't wanna be found, you won't find them.

[cerulean verge]

does support still reinstate lost streaks if you plead your case lol

[tawny inlet]

I'll check

[nocturne sinew]

some people are very findable, some are really really not.

[tawny inlet]

yea

I see

[nocturne sinew]

helps if they don't have a common name. In the UK finding a specific person named John Smith, (for example), is pretty difficult.

[tawny inlet]

Most sites are just for the US 😭

[wooden totem]

Can you name your son "null"

[nocturne sinew]

In the uk, i believe that's allowed.

[wooden totem]

Change your surname to Null and name your son Null, no first name

[winged summit]

why?

[nocturne sinew]

or change your surname to Void (or Andvoid)

[eager marsh]

Funny

[winged summit]

i see

[nocturne sinew]

iirc New Zealand has a list of names you can't use, but the uk is more... willing, where they'll only refuse names that are outright offensive or inappropriate.

[winged summit]

very nice

[wooden totem]

What happens if you don't name your child

[nocturne sinew]

I suspect you end up in court.

[loud marlin]

then you need to visit some doctors lol

[nocturne sinew]

you basically have 6 weeks to register the birth, otherwise you end up in deep 💩

[wooden totem]

I just like edge cases

[sick lance]

https://www.ukdeedpolloffice.org/uk-laws-for-baby-names/

[nocturne sinew]

Chardonnay was a popular (or at least, not uncommon) name for a while in the uk

[wooden totem]

Can you name the baby unspeakable character

[sick lance]

No?

It's counted as a symbol.

[nocturne sinew]

probably
Although you might have to argue it's pronounced Oonay-speekeble Chara-cattar

I quite like the idea of Null being pronounced either with the welsh ll, or spanish ll pronunciation.

[lime belfry]

I think I joined the wrong server

thought this is for cybersecurity

[nocturne sinew]

it is, but it's saturday and all the cybers are asleep.

[lime belfry]

makes sense

[sick lance]

General chat.

Doesn't need to be strictly on cyber.

Just needs to be ethical and legal.

[nocturne sinew]

I might make a cake tomorrow.

[leaden marsh]

I done it by myself

[nocturne sinew]

it's such a shame that most motherboards only have 4 ram slots.

[leaden marsh]

Its shame but when you put new ram its not working

Everything is correct

[nocturne sinew]

any beepy post codes?

[leaden marsh]

My pc has rip

[leaden marsh]

Nothing

I did everything

[nocturne sinew]

psu providing the right voltages?

[leaden marsh]

I had broken my pc I'm waiting for my new laptop

[tawny inlet]

Let's say the person I am looking for is from Angola, where should I search for her

[sick lance]

Please stop asking.

[leaden marsh]

Sorry for the noise everyone

[sick lance]

We are not going to assist you find somebody.

[tawny inlet]

Ok then

[lofty spruce]

ssub y'all

[tawny inlet]

They are friends of mine that i lost contact with, but ok

[sick lance]

[leaden marsh]

It is

[nocturne sinew]

now there's so much that relies on the right compatibility between bios versions and magic runes.

[woeful cedar]

I built my own PC last year December, it was pretty damn fun and I loved it.

[leaden marsh]

Look the problem is the cooler water installed wrong

[nocturne sinew]

dell outlet and BargainHardware are my favourite vendors.

[woeful cedar]

Oh that happens, yea.

If it is something that you havent required before, im pretty sure support can revert it if you ask nicely

[verbal kindle]

Is it good or bad to get help from YouTube when solving CTF?

[modern fox]

some yt channels explaining CTF's so if u did it urself and it didnt worked or idk u didnt understand it can help (my opinion)

[verbal kindle]

So I'm having trouble with authorization upgrades, I'll use linpeas, sometimes I look at YouTube to avoid dealing with it or when I don't understand what to do.

[modest charm]

if you promised to yourself you were trying it on your own and is giving up after some minutes. it is bad.

If you didnt promise that, then that is ok.

If you have no idea of what the solutions would be, then getting help is also ok.

[verbal kindle]

.

this feel bad

[modest charm]

What I do sometimes, if im stuck in a step for too long, I look at some write up but I dont read it all, I see if I can get some hint out of it, I close it and then keep trying.

[verbal kindle]

So I'm looking to see what the guy is up to when it comes to authority upgrades.

[modest charm]

Well, another thing that I do is.. I take notes.. I have a section in my notes only for Privilege Escalation

If I am stuck, I go through my notes to see if I can have more ideas of what to try

[verbal kindle]

I may take notes of this and look at it in ctfs, it sounds good.

By the way, how do I verify myself on the server?

[modest charm]

/verify
but you need a token number you can find on your profile in the website

[verbal kindle]

okey ty

[modest charm]

dont share that token

hi guys

sup

[rapid merlin]

hello, the time in minutes associated right after the box's difficulty suggests what?

(medium 160 minutes) for example

does it suggest how much time it should take u to root it

[stoic quarry]

How much time to complete the room

Not every room is boot to root, but yeah

[rapid merlin]

oh

[rapid merlin]

what do you mean?

[stoic quarry]

If a room is pure theory about something, it'll just be an estimate on how long you take to read it, understand it, and answer a few questions to confirm

If a room is a CTF, then I'd say it's the estimated time to do it yeah

[rapid merlin]

ok

[subtle pawn]

Is anyone good with deobfuscating java code ?

[rapid merlin]

so i was right

thanks

[stoic quarry]

There's some online tools that can do it

[subtle pawn]

Can u link them to me

Cant find any actual good ones

And i’ve been stuck on ts

[stoic quarry]

Ts?

[subtle pawn]

This stuff

[stoic quarry]

Lol

What do you get when you try one of them?

They're usually zipped and add some "this was deobfuscated by xyz" comment up the top

[blissful current]

Tool link by THM not mentioned in the module ...should be ..maybe use that

?

[stoic quarry]

Good point

[subtle pawn]

Almost all of them need zulu im not tryna bloat my vm with all that

[subtle pawn]

Wdym?

[stoic quarry]

If it's for a room, which one is it

[stoic quarry]

You what

[subtle pawn]

Zulu just makes my vm so bloated and slow

[blissful current]

If it's a learning path room ..the tool link would be mentioned in the room

[stoic quarry]

The language pack? Idk what you mean man

[subtle pawn]

Oh no i just found some kids in a minecraft server trying to give out malware without ppl knowing it

Turns out its a RAT

[blissful current]

What room are u doing tho

[stoic quarry]

😐

[subtle pawn]

And i have the java malware code in a txt file here

Just cant seem to deobfuscate it

Not gonna discuss the malware, but report the filehash, then report the server to mojang and wash ya hands of it. No need to go in depth

Anyway

Hope everyone's had a good day

[mossy river]

Report the accounts to Microsoft, they can be banned

[stoic quarry]

It's MS all the way down on that one

[desert shuttle]

Woah woah woah

[modest charm]

Just broke a personal record I think 😂
Ive been checking easy rooms and just did one in a few seconds

Neighbour room if you are interested

[gusty inlet]

Let's see how long it takes me to do it

How much did it take you?

@modest charm

[modest charm]

Really less than a min.. I dont know long exactly though

[gusty inlet]

Ok!

Easy IDOR shouldn't take long. Watch me take 20 minutes to find the solution lol.

[modest charm]

Easy rooms can go from heaven to hell it seems. Because today I also did the Hijack room.. and it took me more than an hour for sure. Then I moved to neighbour and was like a couple clicks

[stoic quarry]

I managed to do a room while waiting at an airport gate

My phone is awful for the attackbox but hey

Got it done

[modest charm]

If someone sees you dealing with that in an airport someone might report you 😄

[stoic quarry]

Seemed fine

[modest charm]

"he is hacking the airplane!!"

[gusty inlet]

Oh ok took me a minute and 30 seconds lol
I didn't understand I had to look for the admin page. I searched for neighbor LOL.

[stoic quarry]

Lmao

Lemme try this

[gusty inlet]

I was like... huh

Then OH RIGHT

[modest charm]

😄

[gusty inlet]

Best thing I did in my entire life is leave gaming behind for CTFs a year ago

It's like games... but you actually learn and use your brain

[modest charm]

ive been doing that for the last 3 months

[gusty inlet]

You'll become more and more addicted

I'm so excited to pass my CRTO

Soon

[gusty inlet]

I could never keep my streak

[modest charm]

of course some days I just read something and answer a question

[gusty inlet]

Don't we all...

This is why I just stopped. I didn't care about my streak anymore

[stoic quarry]

Can't stop me

[gusty inlet]

Cause a few days I found myself forcing my brain to think of an answer for a random question to keep the streak going

[gusty inlet]

[modest charm]

she had some amazing idea "Can you not do that to lidl so I can use the discounts I missed last week"

[tardy garden]

POV of what I had to deal with

Not quite one minute

[winged summit]

nice

[fervent ruin]

i finished this few minutes ago too 🙂

[winged summit]

you guys ever question why you do what you do?.... like, what end you'll ultimately achieve by doing what you do?

[fervent ruin]

self pleasure

[winged summit]

that works i guess

[fervent ruin]

what else could it be?

[winged summit]

improving humanity. something like that

[fervent ruin]

in the end, only experiences will stay , everything else will go away, so have nice experiences

[winged summit]

i agree

[fervent ruin]

if u feel good improving humanity, in the end, u chased self pleasure 🙂

[winged summit]

facts

i dunno man... i just.... i love hacking. but i was doing this embedded systems course, and i'm like, "wtf am i going to do with this knowledge" lol

[stoic quarry]

Pretty deep question

Yeah, it's just fun

[winged summit]

like, after i hack something, i just want there to be something achieved. like, "heck yeah, i did that thing". versus just, "i solved a puzzle"

oh well

[shut hawk]

heck yeah I forcibly became an admin of this system

[fervent ruin]

https://tenor.com/view/hahahahah-gahahahaha-haha-ha-fun-gif-11202946878797502155

[fervent ruin]

u can always report the vulnerabilities to the owner 🙂 and help him fix it and dont get hacked again 🙂

if u r someone that likes to help others, thats ur achievment

btw, what is it u hacked?

[stoic quarry]

That's kinda the point of ethical hacking

[light glen]

hey anyone knows how can i run hashcat with nvidia?? i am using virtualbox

[leaden marsh]

What is this one

[stoic quarry]

The room is called Neighbour

IDOR stuff

[stoic quarry]

Do you get an error?

[crystal mauve]

The work is mysterious and important

[light glen]

it just can't find it it only show the cpu

i just****

[stoic quarry]

You can still run it on the CPU then

Does hashcat -I show your GPU

[crystal mauve]

There is good and there is bad hacking, we are the good

[stoic quarry]

nvidia-cuda-toolkit and nvidia-driver need to be installed

[cloud quiver]

You need to enable gpu acceleration for the vm first . To specify gpu in a hashcat use -d flag and select a device ( gpu ) that you want to use 🙂

[light glen]

this one

??

[cloud quiver]

yeah

[light glen]

thanks

[leaden marsh]

What is you mean

I feel myself lost in cybersecurity

[fervent ruin]

ik that feeling

[light glen]

it didn't work after enabling it

[verbal kindle]

hii

[leaden marsh]

Its normal after studying pentesting go to Aws @cloud quiver

[cloud quiver]

Yeah , why not 🙂 ?

[leaden marsh]

No I mean this is esstinal thing?

[sick lance]

Hashcat isn't best used in a VM.

You don't get hardware pass through with Virtual box.

[light glen]

ohhh ok thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sick lance (current: #2 - 3628)

[leaden marsh]

@cloud quiver sorry for mentiong

I have curios about Aws in tryhackme

[cloud quiver]

Well it is a great benefit to be familiar with it 🙂

[leaden marsh]

I think is esstinal to be honest

I have question about Aws what is talking about what
Is money or free because I subcribed or should I pay for it?

[cloud quiver]

It isn't free , I think that the current price for AWS content on THM is around 300GBP for now

Hey , language 🙂

Last warning 🙂 . Please behave 🙂

[glad flint]

sorry im mad and depressed my girl cheated on me

Nice to see em anyway

[stoic quarry]

I recommend it

Nice to see a two year campaign in the pretty graph

[boreal scarab]

@sick lance You know the answer to this, or shall we get Jabba?

[boreal scarab]

0 year, 0 seconds actually lol. Just created my character

Mead, the Wood Elf Druid.

[stoic quarry]

Start now and see how it goes!

Good on ya Mead

[boreal scarab]

Instructions unclear. I am now a tree.

[sick lance]

Afaik, no.

[stoic quarry]

As a DM I am always happy when a player is invested in their character

[boreal scarab]

Well, this guy has no backstory. Just... herbalist shit

[leaden marsh]

@cloud quiver if I got aws cerft I will can work in company

[boreal scarab]

@stoic quarry my druid lvl 1 build

[stoic quarry]

I had a druid for a 3 year long campaign. Looks good to me

[cloud quiver]

Certs can't guarantee you a job but they are definitely a benefit 🙂

[boreal scarab]

I'm neutral good, I find it better to help the team than JUST be damage.

[stoic quarry]

You only have two spell slots, cure wounds is a good first level spell, thunderwave is an amazing damage

[stoic quarry]

Not many people use alignment 😶‍🌫️ but once you get the feel of who your character is it'll be good

[boreal scarab]

@stoic quarry

[stoic quarry]

V nice

[boreal scarab]

Yah!

No fucking idea what I'm doing

[stoic quarry]

If your DM is good then just sit back and have fun

[boreal scarab]

@cyan parcel you good? No? Alright, well shit.

[fervent ruin]

Are you getting an error when you try to install it?

[fervent ruin]

yes

[stoic quarry]

Okay

What's the error?

[fervent ruin]

unable to locate package

[stoic quarry]

Download it and install the package manually ig

What's your package manager?

[light glen]

there is no way to use hashcat with gpu in my virtualmachine????

[stoic quarry]

Neofetch has been deprecated but it's still fine

[fervent ruin]

i see

[polar spoke]

this

[polar spoke]

per what scrubz said, best to run hashcat on your host and not in the VM

[cosmic minnow]

use them cuda cores

although there is a decent passthrough and generic nvidia drivers, along with cuda toolkit for linuc

[stoic quarry]

Yeah I gave them the packages

[polar spoke]

if your VM has passthrough support, it can work

still not recommended but it can work

as for installing the drivers/toolkit, i normally recommend installing using the Nvidia CUDA Toolkit installer and NOT the version from the repos/packages

[stoic quarry]

Think it's just a bit easier to copy the hashes to your host 🫢

[polar spoke]

yeah definitely

[cosmic minnow]

We all agree haha

[polar spoke]

and then there's less chance of the drivers being unhappy

[cosmic minnow]

so many less variables, and essentially no opsec risk

[stoic quarry]

Easiest option, buy another GPU dedicated to VMs

[polar spoke]

lol

or just build a rig specifically for stuff like that

but that's not economical for everyone

[cosmic minnow]

or really necessary... What advantage would you have as opposed to running off the host, assuming its your main rig and its beefy?

[polar spoke]

purpose built rigs usually means, well, purpose built

more storage for processing data, more GPUs, lot of RAM, etc.

[cosmic minnow]

fair enough, so optimized for the task

[polar spoke]

right

there's a lot more to it if you are getting into the weeds, lot of data processing and sorting/sifting/etc.

gotta make wordlists and remove duplicates and such

so lots of fast storage and lots of RAM are good

less clutter for your main system

[stoic quarry]

If you're at that point then you likely already have a dedicated system

[polar spoke]

perhaps

[stoic quarry]

ssh in, set hashcat running, go make a coffee or boot up a game on your everyday rig

The dream

[polar spoke]

certainly can do plenty with just a decent gaming system or workstation

but a dedicated is nice

[stoic quarry]

100%

[stoic quarry]

I do this ATM, no issues for any CTFs I do

[polar spoke]

i do all of the above

[stoic quarry]

One day I'll have my special rig

[polar spoke]

i have dedicated systems, but i also spin simple jobs on whatever box im on at the time

laptops included, though we REALLY don't recommend that haha

[whole yew]

have you tried that on linux? i've had.... some success with the rpmfusion packages for the RH-bsed distros, but it's been very very hit or miss for CUDA dev

[cosmic minnow]

my main rig is my "special rig", haha. Special to me 🙂

[polar spoke]

honestly, this is the ONLY way i do it on linux

i never ever use the repos

[stoic quarry]

Awe

[polar spoke]

too many times they are outdated or broken

[cosmic minnow]

I do have a 4TB i79700 just for running vms for me to mess with

[whole yew]

oh man, is nvidia still using optimus on linux? that was honestly the worst

[polar spoke]

the deb or runfile from the cuda toolkit page just works every time for me

[stoic quarry]

I don't have nvidia anymore, but sucks that they're not properly supporting it

[polar spoke]

no clue

[polar spoke]

imo its the repo management that is lacking

[stoic quarry]

Or the team behind the packages is playing catch up

[whole yew]

I think i've had 3 broken drivers due to kernel/header mismatch on F40/F41 in the last 3-4 years - not great, but that community is great about recompiling

[polar spoke]

the installers/debs/etc. all work fine, just using the repos is inconsistent

[stoic quarry]

Eek

[polar spoke]

the same is true for AMD unfortunately

[stoic quarry]

Eek

[polar spoke]

though really you're grabbing ROCm anyway so you can just grab from the github repo

no need to worry about it being packaged and in the repos

[stoic quarry]

I'm not doing intense stuff anyway so I'm not too worried, but it's good to know

[polar spoke]

honestly, this is true for many tools

[whole yew]

can't blame nvidia for it, it's the mainline repo maintainers (deb, ubuntu, fedora, SUSE, etc) that aren't coordinating with nvidia to make sure driver release is consistent. chickenman is absolutely right, if you are running business critical and NEED uptime for those systems, take the provided nvidia code and compile yourself.

As a hobbyist, that's a LOT of work

[polar spoke]

like, for hashcat we don't publish to ANY repos outside of the github

if you are installing it from a repo, it was packaged by some random dude

and god knows if it was packaged right or if its up to date

lots of tools are like this

[whole yew]

Yep. It's a good idea to periodically audit the repo package as well. There have been cases of supply chain attacks on popular packages within repos

[polar spoke]

oh yeah

i just go get stuff myself, i dont randomly grab from the repos usually

"apt install" is like "google > first link" in a way

[stoic quarry]

True

[light glen]

okey thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @polar spoke (current: #134 - 61)

[whole yew]

given that what i do with my personal lab isn't of great import to anyone, i'm fine with installing from repos for 90% of what those boxes do

[polar spoke]

yeah

[whole yew]

when it's stuff i actually care about, time to build from source and run it through some code inspection tooling

[stoic quarry]

For most people it's fine, but if you're working on cutting edge/slightly more intense stuff it seems best to audit that thing

[polar spoke]

and it is usually fine

but i think people kinda over trust it

[whole yew]

it's business case related, Silas

Doesn't have anything to do with intensity or cutting edge

[stoic quarry]

Fair

[blissful snow]

hi

[vast egret]

Hello

[blissful snow]

hru

[polar spoke]

👋

[rich zenith]

Caido!!! or Burb Suite!!! Anyone thinks one is better than the other?

[blissful snow]

i would say caido is better im just to lazy to set it up again

[rich zenith]

Ok. Just wondering! Probably still best to learn both you think?

[blissful snow]

I mean yes but don't over whelm your self

[cold sparrow]

I'm trying to understand "leagues." I'm currently in the "promotion zone" for the bronze league., but the leader is like 1000 points ahead of me. What happens when leagues get reset on Monday? Does everyone go to unranked, or do some people get promoted to silver? Can you get promoted within the week?

Or are there multiple parallel leagues?

[fervent ruin]

this room is anoying , but i finished 🙂

[rich zenith]

I will learn Burp Suite first.

The Hammer got defeated!! Great job!!!

[fervent ruin]

22h , still in first

i thought it will end tomorrow, but i have to fight for the first place one more day

[vast egret]

1st here as well lol

[rich zenith]

same

You really do get your monies worth here!!!! I been here for 95 days and learned more than I thought possible.

[leaden marsh]

You use arch

Right?

[loud marlin]

y

that's arch with hyprland

[leaden marsh]

But if I use kali linux And I put it in default opreating system will work? And do many things like theme in ternimal everything ricing is good way I know commands in linux but ARCH linux is hard

[loud marlin]

you asking to theme kali linux as arch or ? dont understand what you wish say

[golden yew]

I just finished it yesterday and it's one of the most difficult of the paths. The latter SQL and noSQL are very simple compared to the hammer

I had to look at WP and copied the script that built the HTTP request to log in successfully. It will be easier to modify the token jwt.io.

[placid tree]

sup haxxors

[cloud quiver]

Yeah which gpu , -d stands for device

[fervent ruin]

^but use vmsvga?

[loud marlin]

you need to find how to passtrought gpu to VM. cos VM do not have gpu support

[winged summit]

heyo

[placid tree]

tryhackme VMs are surprisingnly faster than I thought

[winged summit]

yeah, a lot of them are really good.

i think also on VIP sub too. not sure if the free ones are shared. can't remember

omg. i'm using a chromebook to use discord cuz my laptop died. the agony lol. i refuse to use the web UI to hack boxes. need my vpn ;_;

[mellow narwhal]

its all the same really, give or take some latency

[winged summit]

dude, this is an olddd chromebook. it's slow even browsing the web. i'm afraid to use it for a box haha

[mellow narwhal]

Oh then it's best not to 😅

[winged summit]

hahaha for sure

i mean, i could ---- maybe

but i'm just gonna wait

[mellow narwhal]

I've used it on my phone before

[winged summit]

omg lol

nice

[mellow narwhal]

t'was hell even typing in the terminal

[winged summit]

dude, i bet

[mellow narwhal]

it took me 10 minutes to run ls lol

[winged summit]

LMFAO

yeah, see - my pain tolerance is not that high lol

[golden yew]

I can only use the web machine due to the network and it has really high latency😭

[winged summit]

gotcha. darn that sucks bro

[mellow narwhal]

you can get a VM and use that

[golden yew]

I finished Hammer with it💀

[fervent ruin]

I got 4 badges today 🙂

[winged summit]

nice! congrats!

[cloud quiver]

Great job , congrats 🙂 🔥

[fervent ruin]

Thank you thank you

[golden yew]

For network reasons, I can only use attackbox

[fervent ruin]

Now im going to watch the moon with the telescope 🙂

[golden yew]

💀

[mellow narwhal]

what network reasons?

[golden yew]

about VPN

[mellow narwhal]

if you're having issues with it, switch the server, regenerate and connect

[robust lagoon]

passed my sec+ and az900 two weeks ago and landed a job at a cloud msp i start monday full remote anyone else deal with azure and have any advice they can give me

[mellow narwhal]

Enjoy 🌝

[mellow narwhal]

congrats 🎉

[golden yew]

No, that can't be done, KGB knows

[cloud quiver]

It is blocked in some areas 😦

[fervent ruin]

One of the badges was really anoying to get , the authentication striker badge

[mellow narwhal]

There's a THM bootcamp for azure which is going to be/has been released recently iirc @robust lagoon

[mellow narwhal]

oh

[golden yew]

[robust lagoon]

nice i will take a look

[mellow narwhal]

all servers are blocked?

in a certain country or something?

[golden yew]

yes

[robust lagoon]

funny this emjoi i went to middle school with him

[cloud quiver]

Congrats , great job , great news to start the day 🙂 . We're proud of you keep up the good work 🔥 🚀

[fervent ruin]

What vpns u talking about ?

[mellow narwhal]

THM

openvpn

[fervent ruin]

It was working fine for me ig

[cloud quiver]

Some countries block it so AB is only option from there for now 😦

[golden yew]

i've tried before

[golden yew]

So I used it to complete the hammer, the challenge of doing everything in 180 seconds😁

I did it

[mellow narwhal]

what if you send yourself a reverse shell? from the attackbox to your vm?

that's assuming you know the server's public facing IP of course

[golden yew]

Can I use AttackBox to attack my own server?

😈

[loud marlin]

is against rules iirc

[cloud quiver]

AB is on private network , it isn't accessible over internet

[golden yew]

oh

But I remember that the premium version was okay

Am I mistaken?

[fervent ruin]

What is ur main os ? @golden yew

U can install any tool to attack your own server

Dont need to use the attackbox

[golden yew]

I've been using it for more than ten days

[golden yew]

I just wanted to try

[golden yew]

Windows

[mellow narwhal]

Is that your IP?

(I'm guessing not since you have Deepseek mentioned there)

[golden yew]

It's not mine, it's the api address I found on that site

I would never be stupid enough to put my server IP in a place full of haxxers

💀

As far as I know, there is a high percentage of ethical hackers who have had an experience of illegal access

So I'll protect myself

[opaque flax]

My ip is 10.0.0.10

[golden yew]

[golden yew]

I know you played GTA for two minutes@cloud quiver

😈

[rapid merlin]

i need a ctfs buddy so bad

[stoic quarry]

Why's that?

[rapid merlin]

ctfs are so boring if im solo:(

[stoic quarry]

Which CTFs are you doing, if you don't mind me asking?

[rapid merlin]

i meant in general thm boxes

[fiery tinsel]

Then go to dark web

[junior wraith]

how does one get 3620 points in a week in the league?

[fiery tinsel]

Probably hacks

Mod.apk

[junior wraith]

that's ~30 boxes

[mellow narwhal]

lol

and do what

[fiery tinsel]

Ask for hackers to come in ctf

[stoic quarry]

That won't happen

[mellow narwhal]

Can ask here 🤷‍♂️

why do you need the dark web for that

[gloomy sedge]

Hey

[oblique crown]

lets be ctf buddies then

😄

[frozen gull]

heyo

[frozen gull]

[oblique crown]

nah

u can try mrrobot pen testing in kali

its fun

[rapid merlin]

u want to?:o

[oblique crown]

sure why not

[rapid merlin]

yayyy

[oblique crown]

I’m actually more into other stuff

but can’t say it here

its actually legal

[rapid merlin]

when are we starting to do ctfs?

[frozen gull]

dmzz

[oblique crown]

well today I’m in a physical ctf

[frozen gull]

im curious

so yeah

I’ll stick to the rules

[oblique crown]

trust me

after every failure you become stronger

❤️

[oblique crown]

I’ll tell u when I’m available

[rapid merlin]

okay but just know im like not so good

[golden yew]

It just makes me feel more at ease to be a 0-point player💀

[oblique crown]

😭

[rapid merlin]

just in case u wanted to aim for a hard difficulty box lol

[golden yew]

That's more than once

[oblique crown]

no worries

[oblique crown]

3 years ago I was a dummy, in the first ctf, from 7 squads participating I was 5th

but

I didnt give up

[golden yew]

If my first time was in the tryhackme: I'm not going to be a 0-point player.

[oblique crown]

and now here I am working in a big company

[golden yew]

WOW

great

[oblique crown]

so dont give up okay?

eveyrthing will get better

but

[golden yew]

okay

[oblique crown]

only if you never stop

keep learning

make a roadmap

and start going through it

for e.x
Networking
Application sec
bla
bla

uk

first of all, find what you really wanna do

[golden yew]

However, I have a few friends who started later than me and have already made achievements on the vulnerability submission platform.And I'm still at the tryhackme range.Should I start with the real world?

[oblique crown]

ethical hacking, security consultant, network security, IoT security

[golden yew]

I feel like if they can, then so can I

[oblique crown]

a great advice I can give you is

don’t learn the tools command lines, thats what I did wrong

laarn the logic

how the network works

how the application works

only then you can become a great hacker

why? because if you know how the app works, you’ll know the exact thing to do, the exact payload

for example through some test payloads, you won’t need sqlmap to find sql injection payloads, but you’ll manage to do it yourself

because, what if we didn’t have the tools of today

how would hwe hack?

we*

[golden yew]

I do use only the bare minimum of tools

This slowed me down

[oblique crown]

learn burpsuite

analyze the requests and the responses

complete the BSCP exam

the first thing in your roadmap

[golden yew]

What is BSCP

[devout palm]

Good morning fellas

[golden yew]

Is it recognized in China?

[hallow hazel]

Morning! How did the exam go?

[devout palm]

It was a mess 🤣

I had to hold my pee for 90 minutes, which led to me running into the toilet after quickly giving my exam paper. I could not check my answers. I barely solved the final question with a rush

Also realised I misunderstood a question. -20 points already.

[junior wraith]

next time walk your dog first! 🙂

[devout palm]

I did. It refilled.

[junior wraith]

ouch

[hallow hazel]

Oh yeah, the classic thinking back how many points you lost after you can't change anything

[golden yew]

100

💀

[devout palm]

Self blaming now.

😔

I could do better.

[golden yew]

I have the experience and mentality to get 0 points, do U need help?

🤓

[hallow hazel]

What was the topic of the exam anyways?

[devout palm]

Algorithms

Mostly bitwise operations and recursive programming

[frozen gull]

in programming ?

like bitwise or bitwise and

There are scans revealing random holes under the pyramids, a cosmic source tells me that the entrance collapsed and we should dig towards it

[blissful current]

k

[sick lance]

Fun fact, only one species of owl is nocturnal.

[simple fox]

hahaha

[sick lance]

The one set on Mars?

[modest charm]

yes

In the end they activate these structures to release oxygen in the planet

[blissful current]

so trees were a lie my entire life

[sudden pond]

Cut em down

[ripe cosmos]

yes, let's all collectively agree to cut all trees on sight

[sudden pond]

Thats the only way to see what happens

Charity begins at home

So start from your own house

[ripe cosmos]

maybe the photosynthesizing algae will keep us going

[blissful current]

[sudden pond]

We can also destroy that

also, it cant do much for all humans on earth

[sick lance]

Spotify mini-player is so much better on Desktop.

[ripe cosmos]

maybe all we need to do is to destroy all CO2 producing life forms. That way there will be no CO2 for photosynthesis and all plants and algae will die

[sick lance]

Uh..

You know they switch at night, right?

[sudden pond]

💀

All we need to do is to block the light

[sick lance]

something something no sun so no photosynthesis

[sudden pond]

No light no plants

[ripe cosmos]

oh i forgot about that part lmao
but then plants will just be included in organisms to be destroyed
if(organism.produces("Carbon Dioxide")) organism.destroy()

but I guess removing the sun is more efficient

[sudden pond]

I am sure you know that humans produce CO2 🥹

[ripe cosmos]

(that's my main goal)

you can't kill an element

[sudden pond]

[visual river]

Congrats my man!

[sudden pond]

And the sun will die

[ripe cosmos]

OR we could just speed up time and everything will die with the sun exploding

[tribal bison]

Sent the mail haha

[sudden pond]

That is more complicated

[tribal bison]

It would be a long shot if they actually retrieve the streak

[sick lance]

They will.

[sudden pond]

we wont live that long

[sick lance]

Create a new streak and they'll add it on..

[tribal bison]

It’s just I’m not that motivated to start all over again

[sick lance]

I mean, you're not forced to.

[tribal bison]

That happened as of yesterday sadly :(

By all means yeah

[sudden pond]

Discipline not motivation

[tribal bison]

I said that to the mail, if they can’t help me I’ll start all over again

It would be very convenient if they helped me, that’s all

[sick lance]

I mean, they've restored countless streaks.

[sudden pond]

They always do

[sick lance]

Multiple times for some users too.

[tribal bison]

Have they?

[inner bloom]

Hey

[sick lance]

Although this completly defeats the point of a streak

[tribal bison]

Damn that’s pleasing hahaha

[sudden pond]

I got mine streaks back 2 times in a week

On February

[placid bridge]

Thanks 🙂

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @visual river (current: #2800 - 1)

[mellow narwhal]

A streak to me seems more like a strategy to just keep you coming back day after day to whatever it is

[sick lance]

Wait, you lost your streak in February?

[tribal bison]

No no I lost the streak yesterday

On February I had one steak freeze

[sick lance]

That's exactly what it is, it's a gamified aspect to fuel the dopamine of the brain by "progress".

Just like the badges and certificates.

[pallid lotus]

Or a way to write amusing messages in your heatmap

[tribal bison]

It’s just another method to keep the player base active

And for me it does wonders

[sick lance]

Maybe for you and Varg.

I haven't done it yet. 😄

[mellow narwhal]

It's okay in the case of THM because if you're studying, you got to study everyday
Or, in cases of other social media such as Snapchat, it's to boost user engagement by keeping you addicted to seeing your numbers go high

[sick lance]

You don't though.

[pallid lotus]

I mean, end of the day THM is exactly the same

[sick lance]

You can literally log in, click a question that really just needs a confirmaiton, reset the room and rinse and repeat every day.

[mellow narwhal]

Yeah that's true, and it makes sense in THM's case

[tribal bison]

That defeats the purpose of learning though

[ripe cosmos]

I'm guilty of doing exactly that

[sick lance]

How many people would get, and continue a streak if it was one question you needed to input, and it was a new question every day.

[pallid lotus]

In principle it's better to go and study everyday, yes.
In practice streak mechanisms in THM / Duolingo / etc are as much for customer engagement as anything else as far as the company is concerned.

[pallid lotus]

Or, 10 new questions

[ripe cosmos]

Maybe the streak should be incremented only when a room is fully completed

[sudden pond]

reset and reset ......

[pallid lotus]

You okay there Scrubz?

[sick lance]

[mellow narwhal]

what's that

[rapid merlin]

What's going on chat

[sick lance]

It's a suricata rule to detect a DoS attack.

[mellow narwhal]

you probably got hacked /j

[rapid merlin]

Most likely

[pallid lotus]

See, there's a fundamental flaw with the "new question" or "new room" approach.

There are a finite number of rooms, and a finite number of questions.

Which means people who have 100% completion will lose their streak while waiting for new content to be released.

Which breaks the engagement.

Which is bad for business.

So that ain't gonna happen.

[sick lance]

Wat?

[pallid lotus]

Again, remember the end goal for a company is the make the customers pay money.

[rapid merlin]

😭

[mellow narwhal]

what if they were UDP packets?

[rapid merlin]

Cooked

[mellow narwhal]

I saw that it was specifying TCP in that thing you sent earlier

[rapid merlin]

[sick lance]

I have a seperate rule for UDP.

[rapid merlin]

Who needs firewalls and all that stuff anyways

[sick lance]

And ICMP.

[mellow narwhal]

I see

[mellow narwhal]

Companies?

[sick lance]

ICS.

[ripe cosmos]

I agree, it was just a thought. There are new rooms released every week tho (right?), maybe the streak could be weekly instead of daily

[rapid merlin]

Me and my homies open up our windows XP servers without all that.

Works just fine
