Hacker101 CTF Walkthrough: A little something to get you started


So here is my first walkthrough for you guys and that will be the easiest of the lot, this is the first CTF available on HackerOne.com

What I like about HackerOne is that they give you private invitations to programs based on your performance in CTFs so I guess doing CTFs on HackerOne (honestly) will be worth your time and effort.

Let's Start!

By clicking on this CTF you get to the page which looks something like this

It's a blank page with zero interactivity, so our first bet will be to check the page source of this page by Ctrl +U
There is absolutely nothing in the page source apart from some plain text in the body and an image which is mentioned in url() so why not give this image a try in URL like this
and boom..!! Here is your flag! 
It was that simple, believe me, you'll not get simpler CTF than this, it was just to get your hands a bit dirty. Good luck.
P.s I have hidden the flag so that one just don't copy/paste the flag but you should at least follow the steps if you have decided to read some walkthrough

First log in with your user credentials 2. Write command:  cd / 3. Write command: cd etc/ 4. Write command: cd apt/ 5. Write command: cat sources.list After step 5, you will see something like this: As you can see, no repositories are mentioned here so obviously we'll have to add kali official repositories to this file.  6. Write command: sudo nano sources.list 7. Write your password 8. Now add the following repositories at the end of the editable file which is opened on the terminal: deb h...
