Hacking Challenges

This site offers a bunch of really interesting challenges, from cryptography, to PHP manipulation. I right now am on Apprentice: Level 5. Try it out and tell me what you think. Has anyone else already tried it?

 

Go to the site, click on challenges>wargames>hook. Hook is the first challenge.

do you need to become a member to do the challenges?

 

Nope.

 

Level 10 already on Apprentice! How long have you been working on it?

 

I am stuck on level 5 too....I hear you have to use PHP to manipulate it or something......

The first level of Neophyte is tricky. There's two things you've gotta do to at the same time, I can do them both on their own but can't seem to combine them!

You use code injection. PHP itself doesn't ahve any sort of exploit, but you can use SQL. Most sites usign SQL nowadays use PHP to check for bullshit, but your average amature web designer might have the exploit.

 

This is a realyl good article:

One of the levels at hackthissite.org simply required '='' or '...

 

Obviously ''(nothing) == '' so the condition is passed. To search for a passwordfile you can try something like:

Union All Select null, pass, from pass, try exporting it to a file, or just execute shit by putting something like:

'; whatever.

 

You need to play around w/ it because you dont know exactly what the script looks like from the inside. Normally changing to double quotes or adding some parentheses will fix any errors.

What's behind it all :P

 

They're no fun if it's spoiled!

 

Btw, web browsers wont matter much on it. You'd be just as well using Lynx (I think that's what it is)

 

Quikc question: Do the levels actual get to "hacking?" The first two (I'm not past 2) are pretty fun but I'm not goign to all of them if they're like that.

Can ANYONE tell me how to start playing this game? The Challenge text is not a link so can't click it. So how do I start playing??????

 

Use Firefox, I am sure you are using IE. It doesn't work on IE for me too.

The more advanced challenges are hacking. Hook gets you hooked. Apprentice and onwards introduce you to hacking.

 

If this is the god' date=' sex, password dropdown level there is no need to consider mySQL.
