An intruder found a hospital's outdated digital gateway wide open, slipped in without credentials, and landed as a low-level worker. Inside, they discovered a patient form that blindly trusted input — typing a crafted "name" granted them full control of everything

Two doors stand open; one hides deeper paths. The mind probes, finds the unseen gate, speaks in the tongue of Lua, and steps inside without knocking. From shadowed credentials to root’s light, each chain forged by curiosity unbinds itself. The path is simple—see, understand, act.

Pterodactyl is a medium-difficulty Linux machine featuring the Pterodactyl Panel, a popular open-source game server management platform.

Join our growing team of cybersecurity researchers and content creators. We need skilled professionals who can craft world-class writeups, technical reports, and walkthroughs for HackTheBox, OffSec, and beyond.

Facts is an Easy-rated Linux machine featuring a Ruby on Rails CMS called Camaleon. The attack path involves exploiting an Insecure Direct Object Reference (IDOR) vulnerability to escalate privileges within the CMS, extracting cloud storage credentials, recovering an SSH private key from a misconfigured MinIO bucket, and finally abusing sudo permissions on the Facter system profiling tool to achieve root access.

The auctioneer's gavel struck midnight. Behind velvet curtains, whispered bids concealed darker trades. One desperate bidder discovered the house's secret ledger—and realized some prices are paid in silence, not gold.

In a realm of open ports and hidden shares, legacy protocols are quietly retired as Kerberos emerges to restore balance—a whisper of modern security amid digital shadows.

In the realm of VOLEUR.HTB, the seeker wields Kerberos tickets and agile reconnaissance like a Zen master, revealing hidden keys and service account whispers. Each step—a mindful strike against digital shadows—unveils the art of turning vulnerabilities into a path of structured enlightenment.

In the digital maze, silent ports and cryptic commands reveal the art of trust and exploration—a journey of stealth and mastery that turns technical details into a Zen path.

In a realm of structured code, one careless string opens a hidden door; unsanitized names invite unrest, reminding us that even precise order harbors the potential for chaos.

The canary sings its random tune, a guard against the overflow's hungry maw. But in 'Power Greed,' true mastery lies not in avoiding the pad, but in knowing its dance. Protection isn't a wall, but a riddle. Solve it, pwn it.

Every pin tells a story, every signal hides a flag. What if a microSD card could spill its secrets — not through software, but through bare electrical signals? In this challenge from Hack The Box’s Hardware Exploitation track, we decode raw SPI traffic captured from a Saleae logic analyzer. With a .sal file in hand and Logic 2 as our lab, we dig deep: configuring analyzers, cleaning hex noise, and finally extracting the HTB flag straight from waveform data.

A challenge from HTB Hardware Exploitations track. Low Logic, tasked you with reverse-engineering a simple microchip using a circuit diagram and binary input data. By analyzing transistor-level logics, we identified AND and OR gate behavior within the schematic. Decoding that stream revealed the embedded flag—demonstrating how even basic digital logic can hide meaningful data when viewed through a hacker’s lens.

A story of signal decoding and low-level insight. Starting with a simple .sal file, a curious mind dives into the world of embedded systems, peeling back layers of binary data, interpreting UART streams, and uncovering secrets hidden in plain sight. With a logic probe, patience, and the right tools, they reveal that even the quietest debugging interface can speak volumes — proving that in hardware hacking, every pin has a story, and every signal has a flag.

A journey from web enumeration to root, showing how seemingly simple credentials and version vulnerabilities can cascade into full system compromise. The path winds through Grafana exploitation, environment reconnaissance, and finally mastering a crontab manager for ultimate control.

A revolutionary fusion of quantum computing and AI proposes using quantum superposition and qutrit-based circuits to simultaneously explore multiple attack paths and break encryption. Like a master chess player seeing all possible moves at once, quantum algorithms can exponentially accelerate cybersecurity analysis, though this same power threatens current encryption methods.

A Windows DC hack where NFS exposes sensitive PFX/cert files. Through cracking and crafting certificates, domain access was achieved. The key wasn't just breaking in, but understanding how to manipulate certificate-based authentication.

In the cosmic choreography of unseen waves, WiFi murmurs softly, tracing human shapes from silent shadows, undisturbed by walls or darkness. Researchers, sculpting whispers of amplitude and phase, have taught artificial minds to read these invisible ripples into gestures and postures, quietly transcending traditional lenses and lasers. Yet this dance is delicate—each room a unique theatre, each rare pose a fleeting verse in wireless poetry. Still, the promise remains profound: our spaces sensing softly, privacy unbroken, connecting us in subtle harmonies woven from the gentle static of the unseen.

A misty journey through digital realms, where ports whisper secrets and certificates unveil hidden paths. In this haze, one must navigate the fog of protocols to uncover the true nature of the machine.

From ancient scribes to modern coders, the power of symbols endures. Writing, once a divine gift, now manifests as programming – both bridging worlds through arcane knowledge. Yesterday's sacred characters are today's algorithms, weaving reality with keystrokes.
