Who wrote the task list?

  • Answer: lin
  • Steps to Reproduce:
$ cat task.txt 
1.) Protect Vicious.
2.) Plan for Red Eye pickup on the moon.

-lin

What service can you bruteforce with the text file found?

  • Answer: ssh
  • Steps to Reproduce:
    • Using locks.txt, bruteforce ssh service and check if any of that is a valid password for lin.

What is the users password?

  • Answer: REDACTED
  • By ssh bruteforce, one can find the user's password!

user.txt

  • Login into the ssh using the credentials found:
$ ssh [email protected]
