general

[knotty valve]

Or whatever

Literally

[crimson frigate]

i imagine ill lern more once i get to the jr pen test section

[knotty valve]

You'll also learn more on the job too

[crystal moss]

Im not sure but i think we have a room for just team.. some mods do not like we ask for teams in #general

[patent quest]

Seems we naturally have more people that want to get into the red team than the blue team lol

[knotty valve]

I'm going from blue to red

Outside of work I sit pretty much in purple

At work I'm blue

[ionic flame]

I don't see the room you're talking about :c what's the name?

[crimson frigate]

i dont dislike blue team but i just enjoy being a sneaky lil shit lol

if im not sposed ta, i wanna

[knotty valve]

There's been a few times where I decided being sneaky is boring

So I went very loud in a red team op

May or may not have locked up someone's Sentry database

[crimson frigate]

remeber, it still a succseful sneak mission if there is no one left to be a witness

[knotty valve]

Turns out the group I did it for didn't even have an IDS

[crimson frigate]

i dont know what this means but it sounds important

[crystal moss]

I'm not entirely sure which room they usually refer to, can't remember tbh, but I know there's a channel where it's ok to search..

[knotty valve]

Nor an IPS or even a WAF

[crimson frigate]

#koth maybe?

[crystal moss]

I also have the most knowledge from blue.. but having skills on both red and blue is important

[crystal moss]

Maybe.. dont know:S

[sick lance]

This isn't a recrument server, the only time we allowed members looking for teams was during the hackfinity event.

[crimson frigate]

the flags in nmap have capitals as the second character is messing me up lol

[rapid merlin]

I got woken up at 7am to fix WiFi ?

[sick lance]

Is that a question or a statement?

[rapid merlin]

wtf

A statement

The ? Is me questioning the sanity of the peeson that did it

Because it’s 7am

[crystal moss]

Did you see what Scrubz wrote: "This isn't a

[chilly veldt]

I am soooo tired right now 😭😭

[slow cloud]

yeah same

[rapid merlin]

Same

[chilly veldt]

I accidentally overslept and missed school

[sick lance]

Enroute for my last exam. Woot.

[rapid merlin]

Good luck today

[crystal moss]

The advantage of being the one who is good at computers in a family...

[sick lance]

Thank you.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @sacred shore (current: #764 - 7)

[ionic flame]

Ohh, I see, sorry— in which room can I look for a team?

[crystal moss]

Yes, wish you luck @sick lance

[rapid merlin]

She’s just mad she’s gotta get up for work

[slow cloud]

there working with one of stays 2 streets over, ive been listing to this amazing constant noise for like 4 days

i might go crazy

[rapid merlin]

So I must too get up

[river wigeon]

hey do you think we need AVs? I've heard some people say that we don't need them. why not?

[crystal moss]

Apparently not allowed at all on this server, so maybe if you make some friends here and create your own team, otherwise there are other servers that are not owned by THM that have teams for THM..

[crystal moss]

Busy.. It's nice that I live alone and don't have to do that.. 😄

[ionic flame]

That's okay, thank you very much.

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @crystal moss (current: #289 - 26)

[sick lance]

...Why would you not need an AV?

[blissful current]

ello

[crystal moss]

No problem, you are welcome.

[crystal moss]

Hello!

[rapid merlin]

Tbf I’m just here for a couple days I can go home whenever I want.

😆

[crystal moss]

Ah.. But then it's not as bad for you:D

[blissful current]

[rapid merlin]

It’s annoying. You would think after all these years she would change.

[river wigeon]

That's what I'm confused about. I searched about AVs on google and there was a reddit post saying we don't need them. I ignored it at first but I heard this same thing again and I still don't understand what's going on.

[sick lance]

How would you protect yourself agasint malware/virus etc?

[rapid merlin]

With Av

[crystal moss]

Hehehe.. Well, you think so. But people feel comfortable if someone fixes things for them. They know you'll fix it so they don't have to make an effort..

[slow cloud]

Maybe they meant no extra AV if you are windows? since you have defender?

[solemn hare]

Hello. New guy .

[slow cloud]

welcome

[sick lance]

I'm sure they would have said that.. 😅

[river wigeon]

Yeah. I was thinking about the same thing but this guy is saying that I don't have a AV on my laptop cuz I know what to click on. like bruh not everything is phishing email

[solemn hare]

Thank you

[slow cloud]

yeah okay

[crystal moss]

Hello and welcome!

[rapid merlin]

I said to her last night, leave it and I’ll fix it tomorrow when I’m up. Not wake me up tomorrow.

[sick lance]

Ok, that is their decision, however think of the average computer user, do they know?

[solemn hare]

@crystal moss Thanks

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @crystal moss (current: #283 - 27)

[sick lance]

Did they strictly mean the average user, or nobody needs AV (including orgs)which is scary.

[rapid merlin]

You don’t have to click on something to get malware.

Loads of ways to get malware

[crystal moss]

Many people don't use any third-party AV, but use Defender. Many people who use Windows get by with Defender and a little common sense.

[river wigeon]

not really. I thought there is something that I'm missing here

[rapid merlin]

You should have defender and malwarebytes

[sick lance]

Defender isn't the Defender of yesteryear, it's so much better now.

[river wigeon]

Yeah that's what I'm trying to tell this person but I guess it's up to him if he wants AV or not.

[sick lance]

Now.

[rapid merlin]

@languid torrent I solved the image CTF you talked about very simple 😉

Trust me you'll get it fast if you think about it

[rapid merlin]

I have five 😂

[river wigeon]

Is Defender sufficient enough to protect a system? I think an average PC should have a third-party AV installed

[sick lance]

5 is worse than none.

[knotty valve]

My system has two

[crimson frigate]

i have none my pc is patient 0 lol

i open all links

[knotty valve]

But both my AVs look for different things

[rapid merlin]

I have defender, malwarebytes, awd cleaner, R kill and hitman pro

[knotty valve]

I have one that looks specifically for rootkits

[crystal moss]

I don't use Windows myself, but from what I understand from many others, Defender is quite good. But then it's all about your own behavior in the end.

[sick lance]

https://tenor.com/view/terry-birthday-brooklyn99-terryjeffords-why-gif-13105722

[knotty valve]

And one that just does everything else

[rapid merlin]

Why

[knotty valve]

You're just wasting system resources atp

[river wigeon]

On a mission to create the most secure system or something ? 😂

[rapid merlin]

I wanna make sure I’m not missing something

😂

[knotty valve]

Also if one is found to have a vulnerability, they can leverage that easier to bypass the rest

Since AVs are seen as a trusted program and typically get skipped

[rapid merlin]

One as in one anti virus ?

[sick lance]

Performance issues would be a big one, they'd all compete for the same resources, Each of them would have conflicts.

When two AV's are searchign for the same thing something will get deadlocked... not to mention the resource drain.

[sinful moon]

check into chat, awful ideas abound

[knotty valve]

Yes

[sick lance]

Nevermind 5.

[knotty valve]

If you want a deadlock, just use Norton 😂

[crimson frigate]

you cnt convince me tht mcaffe isnt, itself, a virus

[rapid merlin]

The thing is I’ve had malware before and when malwarebytes didn’t pick it up, one of the others did. So I was like I’ll just keep em all

[sinful moon]

that’s an awful idea

[rapid merlin]

I didn’t know that

[knotty valve]

Also what if one of them is just scareware

[sick lance]

I've never had MWD miss any malware ever.

[knotty valve]

Are you going to keep it cause it "flags" things

[sinful moon]

But also like, what the heck are you doing causing so many actual potential threats in the first place

[knotty valve]

Yeah lmao

[sinful moon]

nevermind I’m not sure we want to know lol

[river wigeon]

But you don't need to though. I guess one is enough

[rapid merlin]

Yeah I had it for years and years. Then one day someone got into my pc and I guess I lost trust of it

[sinful moon]

could have been a false positive or just who knows

[knotty valve]

Yeah

[sinful moon]

if you’re ever unsure, just run something through VirusTotal

[knotty valve]

That's what I hinted at before

[crystal moss]

Yes... it is good!

[knotty valve]

Or any.run if I remember the name correctly

[sick lance]

any.run is good.

[sinful moon]

Yes

[river wigeon]

But they can still bypass the AV if the attacker knows which AVs you're using

[sick lance]

I prefer VT though.

[knotty valve]

Yeah

[crimson frigate]

That's the website that looks up links right?

[rapid merlin]

I’ve not heard of this

[sinful moon]

VT is just a broader view, but also should not be taken as the word of law, since it’s distributed over so many engines

[knotty valve]

There's also malwares that can be undetectable to all AVs

[sinful moon]

gotta use your own brain power to understand the results

[crystal moss]

any.run is a sandbox like

[river wigeon]

checks the files if they're malicious or not

[crystal moss]

Before i was using BitDefender

[rapid merlin]

I’ve heard this is good

[river wigeon]

Usually zero days or someone crafting the malware based on your AVs

[naive violet]

Just stop downloading sketchy stuff

[knotty valve]

Don't need to target specific AVs at all

Memory Resident Malware is already hard enough to detect

[sinful moon]

For personal, I am more than happy with Defender. It’s actually more aggressive than I need especially working in infosec. Yeah at work we have a fancy EDR I administrate but that’s not practical for everyone

[crystal moss]

Many people say it's the best... Or at least it was.

[river wigeon]

Gotta look into that

[sinful moon]

but like a healthy dose of common sense is one of the best AV tools

[knotty valve]

If you can find your way onto a thread that's flagged as trusted, then you also get access to that memory sector

The best form of those kinds of malwares use modulation which is hell to stop in itself

[crimson frigate]

Qotd imo

[crystal moss]

Just like I wrote earlier, according to many, Defender and common sense usually go a long way.

[sick lance]

That's not fun.

[knotty valve]

Thisss

[sinful moon]

Indeed, Defender is actually way harder to defeat than many of the consumer options

[knotty valve]

I don't use anything more than defender on my windows setups

[river wigeon]

who really stops clicking on links tbh

[knotty valve]

That's what happens when you have an AV so heavily embedded in the system

[crimson frigate]

I need my Dagoth Ur Skyrim mod tho

[sinful moon]

mhmm

[sick lance]

I mean, I don't click on everything I see.

[knotty valve]

Or so you say /j

[sinful moon]

I may get false positives on my demoscene demos, but I know exactly why, they’re packed to the extreme and are doing black magic lol

ez unquarantine

[sick lance]

Especially in here, there is only 2 or 3 people I could trust to send me links, the rest of you are investigated like I'm Sherlock.

[knotty valve]

So what if I sent you google.com

[sick lance]

That would not be a link, so nothing.

[river wigeon]

I'm curious. But not really. Downloading stuff on the other hand is big issue

[sinful moon]

suprised you don’t investigate links with that same level for everyone tbh lol

[knotty valve]

I'd still be cautious with links

[sick lance]

The really select people are people I know won't send me sketchy shit.

Unless they pre-warn me.

[knotty valve]

Since drive-by attacks do happen, not every browser will have the necessary security to stop it

[crimson frigate]

The pre warning "open this link if you want a fun virus"

[sinful moon]

even if my infosec manager friend sent me something yeah I’d think about it, but yeah fair his position does come with a level of not f-ing around-ness

[naive violet]

Pretty rare though

No one is burning a browser 0day on normal people

[knotty valve]

Yeah

[sinful moon]

mhmm

[naive violet]

Keep your stuff updated

[sick lance]

^

[sinful moon]

Yeah it’s not hard

[rapid merlin]

Okay so I cleaned out the other AVs

[knotty valve]

All my stuff auto updates

[crimson frigate]

Speaking of browsers. Everyone has a preference, what's y'all's?

[knotty valve]

So I don't need to stress about "is it up to date?"

[sick lance]

And when you're on a public Wi-Fi, VPN that shit.

[naive violet]

MalwareBytes has a browser link filtering plugin, browserguard

[sinful moon]

I was actually thwarted at work from forcibly taking over some machines we had full authorization to do so because both bitlockered and too up to date lol

[knotty valve]

I don't use public wifi

[naive violet]

Drop to 4g

[sick lance]

And it's excellent.

[sinful moon]

they just got nuked instead and remade

[sick lance]

Where my train goes 4G isn't as reliable.

[naive violet]

Nice break then

[sinful moon]

if no bitlocker, I outlined the steps to replace osk.exe with cmd.exe and launch NT Authority/System cmd on the login screen lol

very fun but yeah Bitlocker broke that idea

[crimson frigate]

I actually use public wifi a lot. The PX and commissary have no signal

[knotty valve]

F to bitlocker being activated

But also W to the sys admins for ensuring its activated

[sinful moon]

yeah we were surpised, they had no IT, but fair Bitlocker is being enabled more and more by default

[knotty valve]

Better than one firm I know

[sinful moon]

yeah no I had to proactively make sure that all our clients were bitlockered and etc

[knotty valve]

They're still rolling Windows 8 on PXE boot 😭

[sinful moon]

lol ouch

[sick lance]

It can be, just sit offline and read notes.

[knotty valve]

Not even 8.1

Straight up 8

[naive violet]

FDE should be on every end user device, especially those that leave premises

[knotty valve]

Not my workplace tho

So not my problem

[river wigeon]

Airports and stuff usually do that

[sinful moon]

Meanwhile I will cry for joy when the last of our Server 2016 machines are gone and heck that is still technically Win 10 based

Updates take forever

[naive violet]

Embedded/IoT versions are different tho

And LTSC

[knotty valve]

Yeah these weren't IoT

[river wigeon]

yea

[knotty valve]

I was gonna say "don't think they can even run on PXE" then I remember how PoS systems work

God I'm glad I don't have to work with those things anymore

[sinful moon]

lol dont get me started there

PCI-DSS flashbacks

[knotty valve]

I had the most hell with PoS card readers

[sinful moon]

thank goodness so many have just moved to a card reader doing the whole thing

[crimson frigate]

This just reminds me of that time I learned the entire US nuclear arsenal's launch system was still running on an IBM series 1 computer with 8in floppy discs. This was until 2019.

[muted bough]

morning guys

[knotty valve]

I had to buy a MacBook for one specific brand

Because it wouldn't respond to anything else

[blissful current]

[knotty valve]

Only way I could force it to update as well, god I hated it so much

[naive violet]

If it's solid, it's solid.
Mil is a whole different game.

[knotty valve]

Military usually tend to yk

Heavily modify and secure everything

[sinful moon]

mhmm and even forgetting the technical side for a moment, if card holder data flowed over that computer at any time you’re looking at PCI SAQ C or PCI SAQ D

[knotty valve]

Cause their sigint and elint teams are nuts

[sinful moon]

mandatory pen-testing and more

[knotty valve]

I did find a way to crash card readers few years back

But it was specific to some ancient model

[crimson frigate]

They did this bc it was considered so outdatedmoat people couldn't hack it bc it was coded in B I think. Idr. It's all encrypted SSDs now

[naive violet]

...that's not going to be the reason

[knotty valve]

That's the public reason

[crimson frigate]

I can't even use tryhackme VM on a gov computer half the time 😂

[knotty valve]

They ain't dropping even a dime's worth of internal reasoning to anything

[sinful moon]

lol sus, we wont’ question that too much

[knotty valve]

Just like the nukes they "lost"

Plausible Deniability ftw

[crimson frigate]

I can't remember. It was some program I watch years ago on yt.

[naive violet]

Plenty of crappy info floating around

[knotty valve]

Won't be anywhere near the real reason

Most people can only speculate what happens inside

[crimson frigate]

There's still one somewhere near me from the 60a that just fell off a plane

[sinful moon]

indeed, I am addicted to informational youtube but I stick to high quality sources

[knotty valve]

And the people that do know what happens and why are so heavily monitored it's dehumanising

[sinful moon]

half they time they even cite sources! lol the bare minimum for text based reporting on a subject

[knotty valve]

I will say though

US Marines know absolutely nothing about OPSEC

[crimson frigate]

Nvm I looked it up. It was in 1958 and the conventional explosivea detonated ... That's fun

[knotty valve]

Despite the mandatory training for it

It's like they do it then just forget two days later

[blissful current]

[sinful moon]

thus why so many mobile apps have been banned for deployed personnel lol

[crimson frigate]

Us Marines don't know much about much. It's why is other branches call them crayon eaters and jar heads

[knotty valve]

Yeah lmfao

[sinful moon]

US themselves used those same tactics to target adversaries

[knotty valve]

Navy is undeniably queer central (I'm proof)

[crimson frigate]

I was deployed last year and I reported so many people posting there location on Snapchat maps..

[knotty valve]

....

I'm not even gonna comment

[rapid merlin]

Between windows firewalls and others. Should I just use windows. I did some stuff to it but I was thinking of undoing it and starting again.

[sinful moon]

loose lips sink ships vibes

[crimson frigate]

I'm National Guard and I like the nickname active army gave us. "nasty girls" lol

[knotty valve]

Windows default firewall rules is pretty secure as is

As far as the user goes anyway

I know most users just click yes to the "allow through firewall" prompt

For some stupid reason

[crimson frigate]

Exactly. I'm not trying to run from an FPV drone bc PFC Wannabe Rapper wants some clout

[sinful moon]

By default Windows Firewall blocks all incoming and allows all outgoing, typically the installer will let you know when it’s putting an Allow rule in place

[knotty valve]

Half the time the installer doesn't even need inbound

[sinful moon]

obviously Windows services get special privilages depending on your machine’s config

yeah a client we absorbed had Firewall turned off via GPO, so I had the fun time of fixing everything that broke

[knotty valve]

Smh

[sinful moon]

boss demanded it happen now. Happy to oblige

[rapid merlin]

I had an issue yesterday. I don’t have any phones linked to my computer from me. I kept getting it come up with two users connected. I checked and they were unknown but I couldn’t remove those accounts even though I’m supposed to be admin.

How would someone get account management without my concern.

[sinful moon]

How do you know that’s related to phone link specifically

[knotty valve]

Sounds like a compromised system

[blissful current]

🚩

[rapid merlin]

Yeah but every bloody system they’re able to compromise without getting a hold of them.

0 day 0 click

And I can’t secure it before they get in.

Able to find my physical location with and without devices on me.

[knotty valve]

Probably a rootkit like what was suggested the first time lol

Or someone who's nearby to you

[sinful moon]

Yeah I’ll refrain from commenting since I don’t know the full scope

[knotty valve]

Over the last week, symptoms pretty sound like it's either rootkit, an infected adjacent device, or a physical threat actor

[crimson frigate]

I just had to Google 0 Day so I definitely cannot contribute anything useful

[rapid merlin]

It was a rootkit in the last computer . Picture this, I try to reinstall bios to get them out of bios. The next morning I wake up and they’ve left the folder open to rub it in my face.

✌🏻

[sinful moon]

lol I just know that they’ve had too many weird issues but I can’t attribute without knowing more even with that background (thank you though)

lame didn’t trigger the thank you rep bot

[knotty valve]

Lmao

[rapid merlin]

That’s weird, why didn’t the bot work 😆

[jade oar]

Finished uni work I can do rooms

[sinful moon]

parenthesis is my only guess

[rapid merlin]

Whoever it is, is a creep

They’ve clearly got an issue with consent

😬

[sinful moon]

lol either way it’s clear your 5(!) AVs were not helping

[rapid merlin]

Yeah sad

Because it isn’t a malware attack

How though

Ahhh

[sinful moon]

mhmm which is where EDR kicks in but fair not consumer grade

[rapid merlin]

How does one stay persistent anywhere you are without malware

[sinful moon]

lolbabs and much much more, many AVs are just dumb signature based

[rapid merlin]

I found those Http redirects too

[river wigeon]

Some malwares or malicious files can be directly installed in idk what you call them but something like a root in widnows

[rapid merlin]

And looked like C2 sever maybe on wireshark

[sinful moon]

but again Defender finds even my harder to detect reverse shells just in my notes

so again your AV setup is actively doing you harm lol

[rapid merlin]

I uninstalled them earlier when scrubz said 😓

[sinful moon]

lol fair enough, so what are you down to? Just defender?

[rapid merlin]

Defender and malwarebytes

[sinful moon]

so just Malwarebytes

any AV will register itself with Windows Security Center and disable Defender

[knotty valve]

Or you pissed off the wrong people

That's usually the case for such an advanced tactic

[rapid merlin]

I refused to work for them.

[crystal moss]

🤷‍♀️

[sinful moon]

yes we’ve read that, or at least I have

[rapid merlin]

Must of really hurt their ego

Oh well

[sinful moon]

as much as 486DX2 66Mhz is a dream retro computer of mine, nothing about the modern Linux kernel is ideal for running on those specs

[knotty valve]

That's why you don't get involved or give a group a reason to be involved with you lol

[crimson frigate]

It's totally bc you took apart the Gameboy. Nintendo didn't like that. /J

[sinful moon]

alright time for bed, this chat is only making things worse lol, besides Ash, good stuff there!

[rapid merlin]

I wasn’t involved, these were neighbours. They were already in my device.

[sinful moon]

see ya!

[knotty valve]

Then just Move™

[rapid merlin]

Already creeping

[crimson frigate]

Good night noir

[knotty valve]

See ya!

[rapid merlin]

I have a child and I can’t just up and go wherever I want

[rapid merlin]

Night night

[knotty valve]

Okay and? My parents had two children to raise and still moved from dangerous areas

[crimson frigate]

Ashlynn, you mentioned you were Navy?

[knotty valve]

Not an excuse lol
You can always find places to move

[rapid merlin]

I don’t have any money. I’m a single mother on benefits

[knotty valve]

For Networking yeah

[rapid merlin]

I live paycheck to paycheck

I’m on my own I can’t just risk it

[crimson frigate]

Us or AU? I was under the impression you're Australian.

[knotty valve]

And my family was on the poverty line, rn I'm only hearing excuses to keep yourself in a potentially dangerous position

You clearly don't care about it enough to take any steps to secure yourself or family, other than complaining online where no one can help

[storm storm]

Why don't you take your child to live with your biological parents?

[rapid merlin]

In 2021 I was moved into a temp accommodation away from them due to a domestic. I had waited 27 years to get away from them.

That temp accommodation was a shit show.

[storm storm]

So I guess you are having conflicts with your family or you simply want to live alone and be in control of your own life.

[rapid merlin]

Surrounded by all these shitty people who were dealing drugs, trafficking people and scamming thousands 🤌🏻

I mean WHY THOUGH

How do I wait years and years to move away from narcissists to end up in this shit

[storm storm]

It's difficult

[crimson frigate]

Bc people suck and that's why I live in a camper on the woods. Not even a joke either. I don't want neighbors.

[ripe crater]

hi everyone

[storm storm]

hi

[rapid merlin]

I live by the saying it’s better the devil you know. I can’t say for certain if I went to another country with no money I would get housed, I could end up in an even worse situation.

[ripe crater]

did tryhackme reset challenges progress for everyone? I see 0 challenges completed?!

[rapid merlin]

Living my dream

[knotty valve]

[crimson frigate]

Weirdly enough, sometimes when I have the page open but use the rephrase in my browser it's fixea things. I'm not sure why it works but it does.

[ripe crater]

Oh I just signed out and in again

was stuck

[knotty valve]

And your only solution is to move to another country? Wouldn't work that way on any visa unless you had an immigration visa that has to meet specific requirements (which also includes financial)

I'm saying you should maybe spend a little less time on Discord, and look at trying to organise your life so you can make it more secure and stable

[rapid merlin]

Surviving 🤣

[rapid merlin]

Me studying cyber was a way to make it more stable. I thought maybe one day I could defend against the attacks. They took everything. I had a small business too before all this happened and that’s gone.

If someone has full control of your online life you can’t do anything.

[storm storm]

1 thing everyone is doing =)))

[round onyx]

well not exactly everyone

[crimson frigate]

I tried to immagrate to Iceland it's so hard for Americans to do 😂. I found out New Zealand is actually the easiest place forw to move to because I'm in the US military

[storm storm]

A very difficult and challenging profession

[rapid merlin]

New Zealand and Australia are really nice places and they’re usually out of all the world drama

[rapid merlin]

I know 😓

I also don’t enjoy it

[knotty valve]

So instead of actually trying to establish stability while studying, you're doing what? Other than trying to make your personal issues ours by bringing up the same thing almost every day

Yes, I understand life is difficult, it's hard for everyone but sitting online everyday and moping about it

[crimson frigate]

New Zealand is usually left off of maps too lol. It's a running joke on some map groups and pages I follow

[knotty valve]

Idek why I'm having this talk with someone who's most likely double my age

[rapid merlin]

Well I ask questions here about it because I’m learning how to fight against it. As far as I believe this is a place to study, is it not.

[rapid merlin]

What’s my age got to do with anything.

[knotty valve]

A place to study, not for us to be your EDR free of charge

[storm storm]

I am also studying, when I study I realize that the school I study is easy to get into but very difficult to get out of 🗿

[rapid merlin]

I didn’t actually know that

[knotty loom]

Why i can't see how much points i have earn ?

[rapid merlin]

You don’t have to answer

I’m just studying

[crimson frigate]

Oh yea. Usually the joke is removing NZ from the map and if there is Data on a poll , Greenland is always "no data"

[knotty valve]

Site bug

[round onyx]

best way to check how much points you gain is in the dashboard :v

[knotty valve]

When it's nearly every day you bring up the same thing, kinda hard to avoid it

[rapid merlin]

Please explain how it’s the same thing everyday.

[knotty loom]

it does that everytime for the last 5/6 rooms for me 🥲

[rapid merlin]

I didn’t even post for weeks on end

But now it’s everyday

And it’s not the same thing everyday. I’ve been asking different things everyday

[knotty valve]

I'd say chuck it in #site-bugs then

[crimson frigate]

I just wrote a whole message and misspelled most the words... I think that's my que to go to bed.

[crystal moss]

#site-support or #1333993673381253162

[rapid merlin]

I’ve asked about wireshark, connected devices, building devices.

[rapid merlin]

Yeah, you should rest.

Also if people are so sick of hearing about it, they should stop asking. I am asking about the techy parts and people are asking about the personal
Issue.

[crystal moss]

Good night then..

[rapid merlin]

I don’t lie so I just answer.

It’s not me “Bringing it up out of the blue”

[storm storm]

How can I balance work and rest time? I am always in a state of drowsiness and tiredness.

[rapid merlin]

I’m getting asked

[rapid merlin]

Don’t work after 9pm or have caffeine

You should always try to get up early in the day. Your natural clock works better with studying

[storm storm]

I only go to bed after 12 midnight and wake up around 3am, then I can only sleep until 6am.

[crimson frigate]

I leave y'all with a sign on the fence from my local Walmart

[storm storm]

grab a frying pan before you go to walmart, if you see an alligator just hit it in the face =)))

[crimson frigate]

It's 4am and I have to bE up at 8am , I look like the dad from Coraline at his computer 😂

[crimson frigate]

I used to wrestle em for fun. They usually don't care about people, like at all. If you walk towards them they tend to move away, especially into water.

[storm storm]

Staying up late like that, you should drink a ballerina cappuccina

[rapid merlin]

Why’s there alligators at Walmart 😆

[crimson frigate]

They built a retention pond, so the alligators moved in 😂

[rapid merlin]

Moved in? They just packed up and moved in😅

[stoic quarry]

Morning all

[crimson frigate]

Yep basically. It's very swampy around here so there's alligators everywhere. The retention pond is just more water for em to chill out in

[crystal moss]

@stoic quarry morning

[stoic quarry]

I'm so confused why I got pinged there lol

[slow cloud]

mornin silastic

[rapid merlin]

Who pinged you

[stoic quarry]

Check out my sick annotation skills

[crimson frigate]

I love it

[stoic quarry]

Youtube thumbnail tier

[slow cloud]

your missing the suprised face

[rapid merlin]

Better than the tutor I had fr. He should have been blocked from the whiteboard

[stoic quarry]

Lmao

Why's that

[crystal moss]

It was me. My mistake

[rapid merlin]

Why didn’t say I was tagged

[crimson frigate]

I decided to look up alligator attacks just toale sure I wasnt wrong about them bothering people and on my state there's been 6 attacks since 2016,all fatal, and all old people.

[rapid merlin]

Old people need a Zimmer frame that is a 360

That’ll stop em

😆

[stoic quarry]

Fixed it

[crimson frigate]

The youngest was 68 the oldest 88. Alligators really just wanna be the only dinosaurs around haha

[crystal moss]

@stoic quarry I'm pretty sure I typed it correctly from the beginning. But something happened, it still said 404? That's probably why you got pinged.

[rapid merlin]

I’m making this my new phone background

/J

[rapid merlin]

It took me so long to get the joke 🤣

I’m so tired

[storm storm]

Take a rest and you will be fine soon

[drifting canopy]

congrats KGB you fully deserve the mod role for sure

[slow cloud]

fits like a glove

[stoic quarry]

Doesn't it just

Who can I dm about unsolicited DMs while scrubz is in an exam.

How to start a bug bounty career ?

[stoic quarry]

you can ask #site-support

That's more for the site itself

[rapid merlin]

I’ve recently read blogs and spoke to some people about this. They’re saying it’s really hard to get into and the pay is quite low for the average hacker.

They’re saying most of the biggest hackers take the most pay.

[slow cloud]

its nice for something on the side but i think its hard to get a full time pay out of it

[rapid merlin]

Yeah they were saying to get a full time job. You can’t depend on bug bounty

[stoic quarry]

You're just hunting down bugs and hoping no one else has found it, written a better report, or chained other bugs together. It's in no way a steady and stable job.
There are people who have won 1mil on HackerOne, but that's not an achievable goal for someone who has just started out. You can't realistically support yourself on the hope that you get a nice paying bug bounty.

[slow cloud]

Its good learning tho

[stoic quarry]

Someone found a pretty massive vulnerability with the McDonalds (india) ordering. You could order any amount of food, to any location, for ₹1.

They paid him $100 in gift cards or something

[rapid merlin]

Sadge

[slow cloud]

if you bug bounty the dutch government you get a tshirt, with this text: I hacked the Dutch government, and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.

That’s the bare minimum 🥲

[stoic quarry]

This is all he got

[rapid merlin]

That’s crazy

[slow cloud]

its still 20k rupees

idk if thats alot

[rapid merlin]

It doesn’t even look nice

[stoic quarry]

That's true, at least they gave him something (and approved the blog post, which is an amazing read)

Rather than like

Trying to sue him or get him locked up

July 20 - November 12 for 240 USD. That's not a sustainable income

[rapid merlin]

That’s true. People who are hacking ethically to help shouldn’t ever be locked up.

[stoic quarry]

100%

[rapid merlin]

hey can i ask quick question? its not a help but just for information, does it still has to be in room-help? XD

[stoic quarry]

I think it's an amazing writeup and arguably the blog post is worth more than the amazon gift cards, but yeah, TLDR: You can't live off of bug bounties

Just ask broski you'll be all good

[slow cloud]

if you find a bountry could you after reporting go back to check if it still exists

if they dont do something with it for example

or it takes forever

[rapid merlin]

Report it again 😆

[stoic quarry]

Then report it on an alt

I think some rooms have hidden objectives.

That looks like tables yeah

[rapid merlin]

so many tables

enumerating all of them sounds tedious

[slow cloud]

If this is related to another CTF we cannot help 🤓

[tepid glade]

hello

[slow cloud]

wassup

[stoic quarry]

https://mariadb.com/kb/en/information-schema-innodb-tables/

Looks like standard schema for mariadb

[rapid merlin]

it is not CTF not related to room task either

just wanted to learn sql more for injection

[slow cloud]

sql is a very nice to skill to have imo

[rapid merlin]

and enumerate Tables and their columns, but in room they already gave table name and columns walk through

[stoic quarry]

If you see a common term (LIke INNODB) just search it up and you'll find if it's standard/documented somewhere

[rapid merlin]

OHHHHH thanks, didnt knew that

poor chimken

[stoic quarry]

Interesting guild tag

[rapid merlin]

man why did they stop guild tags

[slow cloud]

i mean its a weed, like the plants that everyone wants to get rid off

[stoic quarry]

They didn't?

[rapid merlin]

i heard you can make new guild tags ?

[slow cloud]

the trashy plants between your tiles

[slow cloud]

yeah you can its slowly being rolled out i think

[knotty pendant]

Does anyone want some guilds

[slow cloud]

and you need to have a few boosts i think

[rapid merlin]

yes

[rapid merlin]

okay i am out

[stoic quarry]

I'm having too much fun

[slow cloud]

i can remove my message

if thats makes the screenshot better

[stoic quarry]

No no no

I was protecting your privacy

[slow cloud]

its better like this

[rapid merlin]

bro what i ment was they removed creation of new guild tags

[stoic quarry]

Oh Idk

Don't care enough about Discord

[slow cloud]

fr fr

or at least not about guild tags

until they make an arch tag

then ill be all over that

[stoic quarry]

As soon as something comes out that doesn't have the most cringe inducing marketing and people move to it I'll drop it straight away

[slow cloud]

remember when nitro was just emojis everywhere and bigger upload

animated banner and gif profile icon

better times

[stoic quarry]

Still annoys me that upload size is something they lock behind a paywall

Take me back to skype

[slow cloud]

its so dumb

also that the limit used to be like 8mb

idk what it is now

[stoic quarry]

What is it now?

LIke 500kb?

[slow cloud]

i think it also depends on boosts in the server

[stoic quarry]

That's crazy

[slow cloud]

yeah here we have 100mb

becuz of level 3 boost

[rapid merlin]

i am down with that

[stoic quarry]

Meanwhile Signal lets me post 2gb files no problem

[rapid merlin]

me uploading google drive links

[stoic quarry]

But sure Discord, give us shiny pixels and tell us how a magical elf tripped over a wire when there's a 500 error

[rapid merlin]

for large files

[storm storm]

use zalo

[slow cloud]

i do like the wumpus

[stoic quarry]

What the hell is a wumpus

[slow cloud]

https://tenor.com/view/wumpus-cry-sad-gif-21814475

you made him cry

Wumpus is Discord's mascot who appears in branding, easter eggs, stickers, and images throughout the client and website. Wumpus is sometimes used to wave to new users who join a server. It is also prompted when someone starts a new Direct Message.

[stoic quarry]

Imagine if Outlook had a wumpus

[slow cloud]

outlook would be goated

[stoic quarry]

They gotta make Outlook (New) and Outlook (Legacy) and Outlook (Webapp) all completely different and lacking first

[jade oar]

No rooms have been done tdy uni be bs

[stoic quarry]

That's what I'm saying

I have other excuses

[jade oar]

Nah what

Why am I here doing assigments of business for some reason and not rooms and brudda here playing 🤣🤣

[slow cloud]

Do any of you know a good blue team challenge room on thm

[muted bough]

guys is using wine or playonlinux cause performance issues ?

[knotty valve]

Using just wine, yes
Using Proton which builds off of wine: very minimal, sometimes better, or no change at all

[muted bough]

so i would be able to play windows games and apps on linux normally ?

[knotty valve]

Wine isn't built for games, it's built to translate winapi to Linux calls for normal applications
Proton expands off that for all you're graphical side of things

[knotty valve]

Yes

[muted bough]

alr thx

[knotty valve]

It's also worth checking protondb for statuses of games

Since it is still a translation layer it may not work for everything or be completely stable

[muted bough]

in this case why t(luck) will anyone use windows ?

[slow cloud]

Well are you currently using it?

if so, why?

[blissful current]

[muted bough]

true i thought linux was limited to games due to easy anti cheat

anyway i realised my laptop is dying and i can't even run tetris lol

[slow cloud]

it is

(i think)

[muted bough]

it is but sometimes actually but

[slow cloud]

im pretty sure kernel level anti cheats dont work on linux

[muted bough]

games who have easy anti cheat r too heavy for my laptop anyway

[muted bough]

true

[slow cloud]

so also no league of legends or valorant etc

no league of legends 😭

[muted bough]

haha

i can just run a vm

league of legends is light and won't lag on a vm

• i fucking hate valorant

that game full of hackers already and think easy anti cheat will help lol

[slow cloud]

well actually 🤓 it uses vanguard

[slow cloud]

my man

that game is not fun

[muted bough]

fr

[muted bough]

it uses battle eye too

[rapid merlin]

I used to love valorant

[muted bough]

...

[rapid merlin]

And apex

I was addicted tbh

[muted bough]

u love apex ;-;

[slow cloud]

apex was good back in the day

[rapid merlin]

I haven’t played pc games for a year

[muted bough]

i used to be addicted to fortnite

lol

[slow cloud]

thats even worse ngl

[muted bough]

fr

[slow cloud]

worse then valo

[muted bough]

i realised fortnite also sucks

[rapid merlin]

I played some Fortnite a while back I can’t build

I made a race track on custom and quit

[slow cloud]

i played one game back when it was hype but my pc couldnt run it and i never touched it again

[muted bough]

ahhaha i was the best builder among my frnds back then

[desert kelp]

hello there

[sick lance]

Fortnite is great

[desert kelp]

how is everyone doing

[muted bough]

u play fortnite ?

[muted bough]

great ?

[sick lance]

Yes.

[muted bough]

oh alr

[errant fossil]

Great, What about you?

[muted bough]

i stopped when they dropped the OG update people say i gotta try it

[rapid merlin]

Did you do your exam?

[desert kelp]

great thank you

[twin ridge]

Gave +1 Rep to @errant fossil (current: #241 - 34)

[sick lance]

Og is good.

I play zero build.

[sick lance]

Done and dusted.

[rapid merlin]

How do you think it went ?

[muted bough]

I used to play build i never played zero build btw

[sick lance]

Really well.

[errant fossil]

zero build ftw

[rapid merlin]

That’s great

[muted bough]

what exam ?

[rapid merlin]

Im studying firewalls and I found something called windows firewall by malwarebytes

[muted bough]

lol

kinda worst firewall u might ever see

it blocks the app and allows the virus LMFAO

[worldly raptor]

is it worth doing tryhackme rooms?

[rapid merlin]

It looked sus tbh. I found a guy on YouTube talking about C2.

[slow cloud]

it isss

[worldly raptor]

or are they old patched methods

[rapid merlin]

I thought scrubz may of heard of it though because malwarebytes

[slow cloud]

it depends on what you wanna learn

[muted bough]

ye ofc for a started u gotta go there

but if ur mastered or smth there r better rooms some where else tbh

[worldly raptor]

I lowkey got plans from Scammer Payback

[muted bough]

LOL

[worldly raptor]

It looks fun to mess with scammers

lol

[muted bough]

ye but with out verification from a federal src it's illigal

[worldly raptor]

ohhh

so these guys make illegal videos??

[muted bough]

nope

[worldly raptor]

are they involving feds?

[muted bough]

people like scammer payback actually works with some people

in fact he has some feds working for him across the world

[worldly raptor]

damnnn

rolemodel frl

[muted bough]

scammer payback uses some ways like reverse connection most of time due to dumb scammers so it's ez if u wanna learn it

[slow cloud]

he has connections with anydesk i think

[worldly raptor]

bro what

anydesk

lmfao

[muted bough]

nope he doesn't

[slow cloud]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scammer_Payback

[stoic quarry]

They've done stuff in the AnyDesk offices lmao

Yes they do

[slow cloud]

His team worked with AnyDesk: a Remote Desktop access software to ban over 2,000 AnyDesk Login IDs.

[muted bough]

any desk pays him for using thier service for goods and he actually rly advertized using any desk by his vids

[sick lance]

Scammer payback is illegal, please don't discuss/promote. 🙂

[worldly raptor]

is it easier to start on windows os or linux

i think linux is more flexible or?

[sick lance]

Use case?

[slow cloud]

anydesk was used quite a bit in general cyber attacks

[worldly raptor]

reverse engineering

[muted bough]

lol scammer payback works with feds mate but doing what he does without verification is highly illigal and we don't promote that

[sick lance]

Both are good.

[sick lance]

Doesn't make it legal?

[muted bough]

ofc it's not if it's illigal he wouldn't post that

[worldly raptor]

laws applies for everyone

[muted bough]

🙏

[worldly raptor]

like if ur a scammer

its not a valid reason

to hack you

ykiwm

[stoic quarry]

It's still breaking a law

[worldly raptor]

exactly

[stoic quarry]

Grey hat n all

[muted bough]

if u interacted with a scammer here is what u can do: just waste thiere time (one valid reason to hack them is collect evidence only no actual harm)

[sick lance]

I use both Windows and Linux, they have their use cases.

[worldly raptor]

still

[slow cloud]

wouldnt the collection of evidence here be illegal?

since you are hacking them

[blissful current]

Sup

[worldly raptor]

can you give me example cases?

[sick lance]

You can't hack them regaldless of the intention.]

[worldly raptor]

cuz im a newbie

i don't know that much

[sick lance]

Windows for dynamic, learn the behaviour of the applicaiton.

Each has their own tools, I'd boot up my VM, but I don't have them on this laptop (they're at home)

[worldly raptor]

ahaa

ur helpful i like this server

[muted bough]

❌ What You Should Not Do
❌ Hack their systems (violates laws, even if "justified").

❌ Dox them or publish personal info without legal approval.

❌ Engage emotionally or provoke them.

❌ Pretend to be law enforcement.

even doxing them is illigal

[slow cloud]

i just hang up

easiest solution

[sick lance]

I don't bother answering.

[muted bough]

but people like scammer payback has legal approval

[sick lance]

If I don't know the number, I won't answer, that is if the phone doesn't block it.

[worldly raptor]

is hacking cctv illegal? "skidding actually"

[slow cloud]

here they use spoofed dutch numbers so it could be like someone from work calling me on my personal phone

[muted bough]

like the other question u have legal approval ?

[worldly raptor]

no

they got no clue

[muted bough]

so no :>

[worldly raptor]

but it's a public ip though

[sick lance]

My contract is hilarious, I use an average of 10 min(s) on calls, and 6 texts.

Data? Don't ask.

[muted bough]

even if they have no clue as a person u should have morals

[muted bough]

haha getting that is quit ez when dealing with scammers but don't do that lol

[blissful current]

Don't even pick up call 🤙🏻

[worldly raptor]

hahaha 🤣

[sick lance]

@muted bough We're all already off to a really rocky start, let's not rock the boat.

[worldly raptor]

bro I would most definitely get myself hacked at the end of the day

[muted bough]

alr xD

[muted bough]

haha

[muted bough]

btw why were u mad of me yesterday ?

[slow cloud]

i dont think its technically illegal (this ofcourse depends on state and location) but its unethical for sure

and might violate privacy laws. Actual hacking == illegal tho

[worldly raptor]

I see

[upper knoll]

no permission not legal

not yours dont try it

[slow cloud]

i asked jabba before about something like this but i dont really recall the answer

[blissful current]

[worldly raptor]

so hacking is in general illegal without permission

[sick lance]

I'm not mad at you, I'm just moderating the server so a peaceful, ethical and legal conversations are happening. 😄

[slow cloud]

scrubz can i send you a dm? since i think jabba said not to discuss that certain site in here

[muted bough]

thx for ur help ❤️

[sick lance]

No issues with you being on my friend list, lol.

I don't remove anybody.

[worldly raptor]

after I saw the deepseek coding ability, i had no more motivation to learn coding/hacking since an AI can do it for me lols

[slow cloud]

fr fr

[worldly raptor]

is it better to work with ai or mixed (ai and personal knowledge)

[upper knoll]

Human coders are still far above AI and will be for a long time

[slow cloud]

ai can be nice

for stuff such as understanding errors etc

[worldly raptor]

exactly

[muted bough]

haha no AI till now can rly hack even people who say "Cyber security is done due to worn gpt and etc... 🤓"

[blissful current]

Hacking..neh...AI isn't even that great at Cryptography yet ... remaining stuff is far away

[worldly raptor]

what is DoS considered as?

hacking or just disturbing

[blissful current]

An Attack?

[worldly raptor]

yaes

[upper knoll]

Attack and illegal

[muted bough]

and coding to btw well actually AI is good at frontend (better then me 😭 )

[blissful current]

Ya

[blissful current]

I'd agree 💯 🤭🤣 me too

[muted bough]

DOS may get down a weak network btw so it's illigal

[muted bough]

😂

[blissful current]

I'm a design student ..and I am not good at front end (of websites tho) ..rest I'm ok-ok

[worldly raptor]

I used to test my DoS tools on my friends (with permission btw)

coded with deepseek

[upper knoll]

Still not the place to discuss here

[worldly raptor]

worked good actually

[muted bough]

what tools did u use ?

[slow cloud]

https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/cybercrime-prosecution-guidance#:~:text=Cyber-dependent crimes fall broadly,of Service (DDOS) attacks.

these have big words but it was the first result

We don’t discuss the use of tools for illegal actions

[worldly raptor]

oops

utter nonsense you clearly havent tackled anything complex, A.I does a good job at basic stuff but when you start asking for how complex stuff works your better just reading from a book or searching manually

That guy looks kind of Sigma

I thought his headset was really chunky but it’s the chair behind him

[slender hull]

bruh just created my first dos attack

[slow cloud]

@sick lance

[rapid merlin]

Oop

[slow cloud]

[modest thicket]

His neck - trap ratio is pretty high.. indicative of Sigma/Alpha male

[slender hull]

?

[sick lance]

This is illegal...

[slender hull]

nahh it was my own server

ofc

.

and educational purpose only 💀

[rapid merlin]

Yeah I see

[sick lance]

No, "educational purpose" is a shit reason for doing something illegal

We don't discuss dos attacks on this server, and it's not the brag you think it is.

[upper knoll]

feel free to correct me here scrubz even if you own the server you wont own the other architecture and it is still an attack on the isp?

if you wish for me not to discuss it ill drop it of course just curious if im correct

[blissful current]

There's a new Fortnite discord Quest

[knotty valve]

The ISP will see it as an active attack, report it and attempt to mitigate it, yes

Because as you said, you don't own the infrastructure if it's routing through WAN

[upper knoll]

thought so

[cold hill]

[shut hawk]

everything was so simple in school (as in, not stressful - not that the content was necessarily easy)

[cosmic pendant]

Because it isn't real world stressful

[torpid stag]

This tbh

And we had all the time in the world

[blissful current]
