Different box this time, your target is now 10.128.0.4–straight to root. Remember that there may be non-vulnerable services on the machine. Recon is the #1 focus. Once you have access to the fourth machine in the range you need to listen on port tcp/5000, you can do this with nc, for example. The flag will be sent at a specific time.

Seems that random.org limits how much entropy you can use per day. So why not reuse entropy? https://imaginaryctf.org/r/505D-inkaphobia https://imaginaryctf.org/r/D39E-libc.so.6 nc chal.imaginaryctf.org 42008 tl; dr Leak stack using leaks in random number generation, use format string to write to the return address and ret2libc. solving Well, we got a binary, a libc, and a netcat connection. Upon running the binary, we see that it lets us “generate” 6 random numbers, and then asks for our name.…
