Uh, alright, lemme boot my vm back up
If your busy or something... Then we can play after dinner
your call, my VM is up π€·ββοΈ
Umm... Ok after dinner actually π€
how bout now /?
sure
17 min 57 sec
lol
none can find the other 2
Actually food machine is also a regular box on thm, you can start that and look for flags alone
lol , i'm out
juz not able to get in ; the cookie trick doesnt work
there are other methods
Quite a few of them
@nova tide dont see you playing nowadays ?\
Because I'm already #1 attending an event.
what event ?
LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
A personal one.
nice
howdy
someone want to bring along a newb? maby teach a few tricks?
hi everyone, im still new to hacking but was wondering how much I need to know to try this out
Doing easy-medium boxes on THM would be enough.
KoTH is not for beginners, would suggest doing some rooms that will help alot.
ohhh interesting
do you have any room reccomendations?
also this generally has the same principle as hack the box battlegrounds right?
@stiff egret wanna write about koth for beginners? Or the suggested rooms before doing KoTH?
!docs koth

i finished the mangaa a dakd a
It's from Haikyuu
yeaaa I finished tha manga for haikyuu
Interesting π€ it can be done tho
@delicate cedar did u close the port?
Nope
21/tcp open ftp
80/tcp open http
3306/tcp open mysql
8009/tcp open ajp13
8080/tcp open http-proxy
9999/tcp open abyss
ohh ok
anyone playing?
If anyone wants to play I just started a game ^^
@wary zealot @fair adder and xxanny please stop reset the machine there are multiple ways in that aren't patched
hi
hi
@rotund topaz found you
lol
nooo it was me
lmao
si keep getting disconnected so as soos as i wanna do something boom
somebody got their tools used against them
yeps
lols
if you give me your thm ip, I'll give you a root shell
no probs it was a probleme with openvpn at first now its not lols
ah right
sorry for those who dont have root shell rn
well, I sent a rev shell to someone
i has something listening always nothing
^
i made a typo
that doesn't sound like your thm ip
its 10.8.118.208
10.10.x.x is for THM machines i guess
the shell could've come through
thaaax
Stellanix is on pts/9 by the way ;)
Damn
that's what you get for using chattr ;)
I should've set buffer size
losl
well that was a nice clean up now only 2 people onm box
and how did ya guys prev esc
uh there were a few ways
gg boys nice
another one ?????
Spectate link?
noojoin
@delicate cedar
No, the spectate one
okay
@delicate cedar
nice not getting lonely on the box hey
Yo! In the Shrek machine I found a salted hash. How can I Crack that? 4.hourse and nothing π I've tryed hydra -a 0 -m 10
Hydra does not crack hashes
you can unshadow the passwd and shadow file and run john
or use hashcat
Do you mean hashcat?
Perhaps you're not meant to crack it
Hydra does not crack hashes
Yeah I hashcat sorry for that. My brain is melting
^
Lmao I'll try, could be
π€·ββοΈ
heeelp carnage
Can't spoil machines, All I got for you is Try harder :)
anybody interested in playing king of the hill?
game is starting in 5 minutes everybody
It's just us 2 then
I already have
Hmm, I think it's normal for me
port 8080 doesnt even wanna load for me
yeah, ||u can see it's content using curl though||
yep i did that lol
its fine im in
yo @delicate cedar do i need to add tyler.thm to my etc hosts
?
you can add it though, so you can access the host easily
but i don't think its necessary
you guΓ½s playing now ?
exactly
yep
dude noooo, you just changed the passwd noooo
Wait, did i?
lol i was in with default creds and now theyre not working lulzzz
hmm, I think i only deleted the id_rsa
looool, then idk whats wrong with ut
There's another way in, but I'm putting back the id_rsa
u guys able to reach out pentest monkey ?
yep i didnt go thru with the libre
im choosing another way in
lolololol
nooooooo
whgat are yoy doing ro meeee
NOOOO i seriously got to root
ahhhhhh
even the ssh passwd is not working
u got root?
omg YOU HAVE CHATTR ON?
yep suid
yeah
is it?
i think si
maybe haha
busybox is bb
oh, i see the binary
did u remove chattr binary or remove the attributes?
the binary
u should use the binary to remove the attributes
4 min guys
^
@fair adder
why is tha happening ?
what do u mean?
kexit ?
idk, did u kill ur own shell?
π
Damn, definitely not me
i am having a clean shell ... even your nyancat isnt working lol
I don't even use nyancat
@fair adder did u the one that use while loops?
hy
Are we allowed to have write-up for the koth machines?
According to https://tryhackme.com/games/koth - "You can stream and post writeups on KoTH machines."
And according to https://docs.tryhackme.com/docs/koth/king-of-the-hill/ - "we do not want any writeups or hints for this game mode"
You are allowed to keep notes but not really a good idea to spoil the box for others.
@glad turtle @nova tide, the docs site is deprecated -- help.tryhackme.com is where the up-to-date documentation is.
Writeups / videos are allowed, essentially as there's no way to enforce it
So whilst it's not necessarily encouraged, it's not an issue if you do
@fair adder hy
Alright cool, thanks for the detailed answer
hi sup
r u not playing?
yea, i had to do other task first
ohkk im waited for u a long
i'm so sry dude
i had some tasks left in privesc room
ok dude Np
on a side note, how did you find me
on discord
you are from india too hehe
lol
hey guys just joined koth
Nice! How are you liking it so far?
You are gloria user, maybe the flag is read only for alex user.
How many times can a vm bei resetted in one koth Session? I counted 5 to 6 times in my last koth which is a little bit annoying
Screenshot if possible?
Yeah it's a bit annoying when people reset the box when ssh passwords are changed. Instead of finding more ways people tend to reset the box instead.
Machine should only be voted to reset when machine is broken not when it's patched.
I played a game were my 2 opponents reset the machine 10 times xD at the end I just had an auto patcher lol
Resets might be a pain but that(auto patcher) is totally against the rules.
I mean a long code line that I made for the machine not an auto-patcher
π€·ββοΈ
To me the rules meant that you can't use an external auto-patching tool
correct me if I'm wrong tho
External patching tools??
You can't use scripts that automatically roots/hardens(patches) the box.
Hmm is there no such things?
So that would mean that when the machine is reset I should write my code instead of copy pasting it? seams very strange to me
Never tried one
I assumed such tool would exist but now that I think about it it may not even be a thing
@nova tide
deleting the king.txt and the binary that's inside the /root is against the rules isn't it?
cause i'm playin right now and a guy with the nickname of Edd13M0ra is deleting everything
he even deleted ls but nah i can usr printf '%s\n' * so because there's an alternative that wouldn't be a prob
the king.txt itself, I think is fine because you can just remake it
he deleted the binary for the king
But yeah deleting the king binary is against the rules
the entire /root
It shouldn't break it, but depends on the implementation
Legal? Yes. Against the rules? Also yes.
i wanted to say the binary for king.txt anyway
Have you read the new rules?
The new rules on the site?
i've read them yesterday
but i'll again now
Do NOT delete system binaries (except chattr) or change executable permissions on them (or their directory).
hmm
Do not attack, modify or stop the service(king/KoTH service) on 9999 (this includes a 'KoTH' binary placed by default in /root and things like changing service locations.)
so it's ilegal to delete it
Given the site you've got linked in your bio is full of illegal content @fair adder, please do not advertise it in here
i'll change it now, even tho this sounds little bit stupid, i am not explicit advertise it
Oh, I know you're not. If you were pasting it in the chat you would be getting chucked. We're more lenient about statuses given they're obviously Discord wide, but I draw the line at illegality
done, i've removed it, now we can concentrate on the things that happened during the last koth, deleting the binary and explicit everything from /root is ilegal
edd13m0ra is the 3rd person who got in, i was with meowless for 30 minutes or so and everything was fine we battled with eachother and when he came in he deleted /root
not to mention the fact that he deleted the flags, which is again against the rules @quiet schooner
I'm not koth staff
Iβm looking into it
Hey @fair adder -- could I get your THM username so we can check against your latest games? π
Hello, seem like KOTH as some bug. Trying to join public game redirect me to 404 but it seem like it still scheduled me for a game. But the game in question doesn't exist. https://tryhackme.com/games/koth/16848
why is it that every koth game is either panda or shrek lmao
ikr
i always get the same machines shrek,lion and panda
@hazy geode mind telling me why nobody can create tmux instances cuz all of the close imediatly?
everything work and we could all list working sessions and you closed them
gg 4 minutes left there's no more competition
sad you had to ruin the only legit way to privesc, i have tried the kernel exploits and sudo cuz of the old version but no one worked
I mean you are supposed to patch the vulnerabilities. Don't know what you are talking about?
he patched the ONLY vulnerabiltiy there, go ahead and try that pip thing from gtfo it doesnt work
There are more than one way to root the box, try finding more.
yea well i guess im stupid should've looked more


No not pip
yea i saw
Since you had access as the Gloria user
@hazy geode try not to spoil the box, please?
Oh okay
Yeah
do you want to add you as friends, i have a group of people with which i play games and maybe i can text you 2-4 hours before so you can join us if you want
Yeah sure that'd be fun
hi im Green Kurd
join my game
SO I want to do a koth
then I don't know how to do it
is the problem on your side or is it that I don't know
Give this a read
Have you solved other rooms on tryhackme?
Yes
Those had open ports
I try nmap and rustscan and it says 0 ports open and ping scan says it is not online
Sounds to me like an openvpn issue
Hm let me try reconfiguring
@broken ermine Please only post the link once.
Can you use the THM attack box for KOTH or do you have to use your own vm?
Yes you can
sweet thanks
let's see if today's koth box is panda or lion
Ig panda
lmk
i got root on the box but can't add my name to king.txt
any suggestions ?
it says permission denied
i played today a koth game before i went to "school"
i played Food, it was a super nice room with, finally, a good method to exploit and i could use my coding knowledge, albeit little
:)) if you wanna do it alone, food machine has been made into individual room, search for foodCTF in hackitivities!
yes i know, i got to exploit it on that koth game but someone patched it or something happend, i'm watching this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9WhQUItNNMw and after that i will do that until the end

Hackers and food are available standalone
Only hackers and food
One of the perks of subscribing
i am having some serious problem with the hogwarts box ... no spoilers please but i can not access port 22 in firefox and google didnt help at all all advice is outdated please anyone that got around thiss not fun having no one able to access it
That port is not the only way to get in the machine, you can try for other ports,
Although, how to access that port on firefox comes up pretty easily on google search, I don't know what you are searching, but try again(?)
lols i am at that point where i was searching long sentences but figured i just used curl to just see whats up and i am still waiting for an all port scan to come back maybe im just stupid and not seeing something
In future instead of waiting for scan results try installing rustscan to stay ahead of others.
i have been saying i need it lol no one on the box yet just cus offportscann
Did you steal a trick from Jack of all Trades for that one...
lols
I never solved that one lol
I legit saw that months after I released hogwarts
smh π
@delicate cedar have you done hogwarts ???
last time i hadvpn isues so didnt get anything done
Hey, if you don't want spoilers you shouldn't use tricks that have been written up hundreds of times π
I DIDN'T SAW IT! smh
I wonder what the ||openssl enc do||
@delicate cedar wanna join box or you bussy
Still studying the box
Not on pc rn
wanna join a vc and spin up a private room and then check it
drop me a dm then we can go check it out
?
holmes you released HOGWARTS uh ?
yeah he did
anyone have any suggestions for rooms to do before i am ready for koth?
this current koth rotation makes puts new players at a disadvantage
i played yesterday or something a Panda box vs a new player and he was able to become root eventually but it took him like 10-15 minutes
meanwhile i had that machine already enumed and just had to redo what i did
now i play this production machine against a guy who became root in 10 minutes, and i just test stuff to exploit it [no spoilers]
That's because it's all about who's first getting to root and maintain it's persistent, everyone who has done the box has an advantage
someone playing ? pl send the link
The newer machines are randomised a lot to help with this, examples being Hogwarts and hackers. Passwords change in hackers, and a lot of stuff changes in Hogwarts, you can't just repeat the steps to get back.
Plus there are plans in works regarding this problem :)
Yep
they are the toughest machinesπΏ π―
i literally take down notes for hogwarts
There isn't much you can make notes of in Hogwarts.
yea whatever is there is to be noted π
π
same machine "rotation" panda for like 3 times, we need a lot more machines and some thing to keep track per user and randomize accordingly, same as it does now with 1 minute left before it shows the machine but it should take into account what was the last 5 boxes for everyone so it won't happend like yesterday when i played Lion 3 times or something like that
New Machines? Soonβ’οΈ
Keep track of each user? I don't think that's really necessary. You will get one machine that someone have already done from 10 users that can join the game. Machines are already randomized. If you get a machine again, you can always try finding other methods when you have already rooted it one way and try patching those as well.
hy
Rotation is randomised, so it's actually your luck. New machines, are Naughty said, as coming soon. But keeping track of every user is just not really applicable at the moment, as there are around 12 machines. As the pool increases, so will the strategies for KoTH.
idk, this needs a lot of more work, or at least make every koth room public so everybody can prepare in advance
It says on site, 'Beta'
idk if it's okay for me to try and hack a box at first sight meanwhile stellarix or whatever gets king in 3 minutes
You can create private matches
study the box on priv games
that's a decent workaround
Invite those who are new to machines as you are, then hack them together, it'll be more realistic that way.
Plus, usual non-strict rules are not applied to private games.
"invite" i don't really have friends to invite, or if i have i have like 2 of them
i play 1-2 games with them but that's really not a big competition since we vary in skill alot
You can create an ALT account for that as well
@ me if you want to compete?
'If anyone is new to koth and wanna start, DM me and we can play together' you can post msgs like this here.
yea it's very decent stuff you are saying but i want the koth game to be like the best, with tones of machines and everybody to start fresh and have no prior knowledge of that
box
You can do that when any new machine is released π
idk i think im just butthurt cuz stelarix kept king for 50 minutes without claiming any flags
That happens, get in the box and kick him!
I think u can still do something since i don't patch anything
yea i saw
Find methods to persist your shell then start patching and kicking others!
That's the fun of this.
can i dm you to give me some hints about that box we played today? or if you have a writeup for that production box
Writeups for many boxes are public,
If you google around you are bound to come across them
yea but production is exclusive to koth aka it's not on the learn tab
No, I meant on internet.
Sure you can, I'll be of limited help since I am on phone rn.
okay, can you tell me do you even know what box i'm talking about? that production box
I know production box in KoTH.
And you'll understand what I am saying if you google king of the hill writeups
okay i will dm you cuz im about to tell spoilers
Don't want to be rude, but do you even know whom you are talking to? 
no, why, are you a divine being?
it's relevant for me to know if he knows about that box since im going to talk to him strictly about that box, so it's a must that he knows what's that
Dude you should check out their profiles..
||Check koth leaderboard||
didn't really cared to check profiles, i just asked a people responded, idk what's so important if you are top 1 or never even played, if you know about the production box i will talk to you
Ok i know production box, what questions you got?
i will answer them myself since holmes spun up a box for me to test
Good luck.
ah so there was no problem, aparently somebody who got in the box deleted that cuz i did the exact same thing as i did earlier today and now its working
random public game:
https://tryhackme.com/games/koth/join/f7e6685b1c6690aa37d6ac72
Starting in 3 minutes
might join kekw
No you won't.
Carnage, starting in a minute.
oh, you can join the room after it already started
that's a problem
lmao king time for 57 minutes, so 3 minutes to root
knowing the room before hand is like having walls in csgo smh
I thought invite links not expiring after an hour was a reported and fixed bug?
Pinging the super user: @lusty portal
after that it becomes the battle to control the king file, whoever owns that, owns the game.
Let me add that in now, its on my to-do's but its so easy to implement.
:))
WoW that was fast, NICEE
actually it was less than 1 minute king, they reset it once.
Speaking of KoTH, we have some new exciting boxes for it coming out next month
Some people don't patch the machine but fight for king instead.
it is actually a better way to win, as I said, own the king file own the game.
also Naughty has like 90+ wpm typing speed, smh one of the reasons I can't beat him sometimes
omg
i just killed my session and that was the only way i knew to get root and i patched it
Imagine having 60+ WPM 
always, always, plant a backdoor before patching
ah lol i didnt, actually if you are already root it also asks you to input password if you type sudo
didnt knew that
my response is restricted because of PG13 policy of server
i have a backdoor but it's as a user cuz aparently i cant passwd since im not root
but if i type whoami it says root lol
because you are not proper root, maybe with EUID of root and UID of user.
yea maybe that's it, i still need to learn the real things about privesc i only know the surface level
I can write a paragraph before you can say anything π€£
smh
still I beat you

π
took you an hour to type that π€£
π€£
my system is asking me to let it go 
wrong screenshot? 
kinda
i'm doing one koth machine .....i got ssh session but commands aren't working in it ....for every command it says
-bash: <command>: No such file or directory
If the KoTH machine is food, then it is intended, if something else, you need to set the PATH variable.
yes it's food
It is intended, check the PATH variable.
am i supposed to get this ? i tried ftp twice and then this came
||or is it because i am trying Hydra on it !||
It's probably hydra. Which box is it?
HACKERS
Yeah, it's probably hydra
but now that i have the pass , how do i login
if it's box related go to #room-help
bro by box he means the machine
Hackers is a KoTH box, so he is in right place.
Is the hydra running?
yup
but if i stop it and then try .... its the same
Give it a few minutes, it'll calm down
ohk
@rancid pewter :c
Hey
well u gonna bully me
Hope you are all ready for some tetris
working fine for me:
https://tryhackme.com/games/koth/17000
well, since the bug isn't fixed and i can join an in-progress game
imma boot on linux and join you guys lmao
your internet working?
@nova tide Ssh onto the box
it is supposed to cuz i am chatting in here
I don't want to 
.
Good old memories
REEEEEEEEEE
If anyone want to try out tetris ssh on the box myDonut:theDonut
and get the root shell when you win the game 
ok i am curious i am logging in
Oupps my bad seem like when you win it doesnt spawn a shell
Should work properly now
well took me 30 minutes
but im logged in
well with 2 flags in the bag ends my journey, can't access find
@stiff egret
What is labyrinth ?
mydonut > did you get in through the xxe?
Nope got some saved ssh key
okay
I feel stupid now not sure what I was thinking
new koth machine which I was supposed to finish a week ago
@grand delta are you bgokjh?
y
nah i am not
nvm then ^^
I just had a chat with him on the last 10 min of a koth game through echo pts and it doesn't seam like he is on discord lol
I mean, I might do that too from time to time xD
i cant get the root now lol
you should always change the root passwd first lol
no but i am a user
ah I thought you patched the machine
wdym then?
how did you patch the machine without being root then?
i was root ! > then i patched everything and then i killed myself
so when you were root you could've changed the passwd xD
eeyyy no i did that
???
i changed the pass
so what's the problem?
ssh root if you also modified the ssh config file or su with a lower level user
no no i am talking only if you have the pass for becoming root
then whats the command
for getting root
su
Y
i thought i tried su
someone might have gotten root since then xD
ah now i understand i changed pass for the shifu user ; man i am blind and a short time memory loss sufferer !!! gahh i am so messed up > i am sleeping bye
xDDD
:))
There are like 3000 ways in on Panda ^^
lemme delete that
xDDD I just can't
for sure ^^
what should my level be to start king of the hill ?
Intermediate.
You don't need to DM. @finite turret
Any queries you have, you can ask here. Others will help too. :)
Ok π
@stiff egret thanks
i got another question
is there is any way to connect to tryhackme openvpn except udp because udp is not supported in my country ?
No, there is not
And we cannot help you bypass the openvpn ban as it'd be illegal
Use the attackbox
but hackthebox provide tcp connection
Ok, but this isn't hackthebox
i know
any one up for some fun

hy
Hey, i have a question
what give the differents machines?
and my secound question is:
explain that a bit more?
for example did the Hogwarts machine will always have the same fails
what are their difference between them
Hogwarts is a very dynamic machine
what do you mean 'fails'?
It's different each time you play it
Fortune and Hackers have some dynamic elements
flaws excuse my frenchglish xD
Food, Production, Panda, and some others that I can't remember are not dynamic at all
ok
If by 'flaws'/'fails' you mean vulnerabilities, then ofc, they can't change much. That's the point of having multiple machines in the pool.
are their some "easy" machines
SpaceJam, Tyler are some of the easiest ones. Since you are a subscriber, you can start private games with specific machines π€·ββοΈ
Tyler is easy, heck noo 
5 minutes , public game
Anyone?
....
what level do we have to be to play KOTH
1
im at 10 & it's showing you need to be intermediate & advanced !!
what level is intermediate ?
1
You have to change it on your profile
public game starting in 8 mins π
someone up for some koth?
hey is there a room where you learn how to play koth?
ah thank you
Heh, GL everyone. This will be my first KOTH
so how does this work? Break into systems and find flags, then patch to prevent other users from getting your flags?
Within the rules, yes
Put your name in the king file
You don't have your own flags, you're patching the system to stop people removing you as king
!docs koth
would be a good read ^
that was awesome!
stellarix if you're in here good job
@delicate cedar good job mate
Oh that was you?
okay thanku sir !
Yes
@rancid pewter bruh
Hello
Good luck then
Nice
I know. I think you can just hold the space bar and you will instantly win
ye
Old program I made last year it doesnt even compile anymore
Idk if you saw what happen when you loose
Try it
public game starting in 10 mins
Hmm, find another way to root then
stopp
enough man π
anyway i donno how to break that e2f thing
nice script you got there btw
i copied it for future π
Which script?
I see
why do you always have the error attaching to pid -38
It's a bug
oh
That was the command that you input
hows the other guy spawning shell everytime
So it was you who killed my shell repeatedly π
Hmm, I only did it for less than 30s
nah it went for like 170 seconds
Really? probably forgot to stop it
anyway GG , game ends
13 minutes public game
LOL


tell me one thing , how did you get root so fast , like dont you generate ssh keys
You trying to show me the demo.gif but I can't see it 
How's the gif look like?
get in , i will show how π
Okay
I didn't see a gif
Don't use cat -_-
Just execute the gif then write it to my pts
yes thats what i am doing
. /dev/shm/demo.gif > /dev/pts/?
Sub?
substitute
Really, let me try myself
u sure ?
Yeah π
nah i am not believeing you π
I'm serious
but i dont want you to get the gif either , you can take benefit from it
π
i am kinda selfish
then do that
for that you need pass
oh no you have key ig
anyway , get it and test , ( I AM NOT LETTING ANYONE IN )
π
nice
Does your gif worked before?
Hmm
-_-
tell me how did you get in
like i took 3 mins to get root
you took less than that
just give a hint
or put it a spoiler
I'm on phone, the text is small and typo is unavoidable
-_- who reset the box
Me neither
tell how did you get in the box to get root
||find another efficient way to root besides uploading kernel exploit to the box||
||its either that or tmux session which was patched||
||what else||
yea
Just put ur name there, so we can get in to recent game π
-_-
pl pl ,, you got efficient methods
Hmm
||as far as i could explore the box , you used those code and scripts to get in||
||i copied them but isnt that what i did , i mean i tried to get attched to the tmux session by using tmux -S /.dev/session attach -t 0||
||it took me less than 10s just by using tmux||
||you just haven't fully explore the box||
||@delicate cedar tell noe||
Instead of asking from him, always better to try on your own.
πΏ
When I click on this link... It says I won and I dint even play today wth smh...
I shouldn't be there in that game
Is it showing the same for everyone
It's a known bug which is supposed to be patched later this week. The invite links don't expire, so if any game had only one player (meaning it didn't start) then if you join using the link, you essentially become the last player to join, and hence on rank 1 and so the winner.
Tho it's a bug... And according to the bug I won, so will it also change in my leaderboards?? ππ
smh, explain a bit more, also when you open a link of some site in browser, the site uses it's cache that was saved on the browser when you used it last time.
No it will not, as the game you joined was never an actual game, as in there was no machine selected for it, and it ended as insufficient players. So it won't count.
P.S. the leaderboards only count the games where some points were gained by at least one player. So if the game ends with maximum points = 0, then it simply won't be counted.
@nova tide I really wanted to see ur stream π©
welp you did try to stream snipe me at the start
removing my binary you saw while watching

@ me whenever you play again
π« okay
yo playing ?
anyone !
pub starting in 15 misn

:(
Yes they're static
what does that mean
So it's possible but you're better off going straight for king
The flags don't change
They stay the same
Eh i'm not entirely too sure but flag hoarding is a bit unfair for new comers to it
k cuz me and my friend were like woah wtf just 10 seconds of koth and he has 6 flags
I mean
Itβs not technically against the rules but itβs also just not cool
Weβre waiting for THM to provide the ability for autogen flags
Hmm, when the new machine will be released?
Also, Is it only koth staff that can submit koth box?
The one is latest queue is getting delayed because the creator haven't completed it yet.
And you are the creator
yeah

nah anyone can create them for the most part
most part?
Mostly
Just an OVA?
Really soonβ’οΈ
Yeah.
you play cheating
I think that the passwords and flags are no longer static since there are players who start the game and already have the credentials, they remain as king and the others do not enjoy the game
At the time I played a game and the second it started there was already a king that's not fair
What?
Didn't break any rules -_-
wat?
Sure you don't violate any rules but the players don't like that
Huh?
I honestly don't like that either, when I first getting in to koth, players just went straight to the king but I get used to it.
Then what do players have to do when they already know the box? Waiting for other player be a king?
That is an issue that must be discussed with the admins so that the flags and passwords are not static
Passwords are not static in newer boxes, like Hackers, fortune, hogwarts etc
RE. flags, that's also in works, but no idea if it'll be implemented soon.
It's more of a site issue then boxes.
Flags in binary is really a good idea
It could be, like RE challenge
It is like that in one or two boxes. Keep in mind, the boxes are intentionally made easy so they are solvable in 1 hr time frame.
Adding some hard/medium RE challenges in the mix will kill the fun.
Yes, it must be make to not really complicated
Although, there are some boxes which give root on RE challenges.
I would suggest encoded flags but one of the machines already have it
But more wouldn't be such a bad idea
Isn't it more like pwn challenge?
π€·ββοΈ
Exactly. Even I got to used to it now. Though thats no fair
But then the flags are still the same each time
im acc confused i join a koth game and Stellarix has rooted the box
i then go to another game and he rooted the box under 1min
is that even possible
Yes
damn must have good notes then
Iβm new to hacking what is koth
!docs koth
I just needed the submission for daily streak. Didnβt do anything on the machine so it was still ready for anyone to take king
Wow, someone really destroying the box

?
It's shrek, that's possible.
Can be, but also consider the box, shrek is like one of the oldest ever.
automated scripts not allowd in rules ?
they are not.
whatever the box is
The screenshot was late
you can root shrek within a minute without automated scripts.
rooting the box, changing the passwords etc ??
within a minute ?
I wanna know if changing the ssh password is permitted or not
You get in the box, you change password, privesc and add your name in king file?
^
last time, i heard the opposite from a koth staff
i doubt that.
Pretty sure no one from koth-staff would've said that changing ssh passwords are not allowed.
awesome
It's shrek, pretty straight box -_-
umm okay
We need more like this but for flags
Can you be a bit more specific?
.
Wait you are hacking on mobile ?
If it can be done on mobile
GG
ehy
