Hack This Site Basic 10


Please enter a password to gain access to level 10
Only this much is written as hint.What we should do? I have tried reading the source code and there is no hint how the password is validated.So,we have no other way than intercepting the data.Once we enter the password and hit submit the password along with some request is sent to the server by the browser.There can be very vital information in this request.What we do is intercept this request before it is sent to the server.For this we use "Burp Suit" or some extensions for tampering data.For chrome and firefox,we have tamper data addon.Iam using chrome add on: Tamper Chrome

HOW TO USE IT?


*Right click somewhere and select inspect.
*Now select the three arrows pointing right on top right corner.
*Now select  Tamper from it(make sure you have added the extension in             chrome).
*Now input some password in out mission or leave it empty and hit submit.
*You will see a new tab with the request details from Tamper.
In that ,look for details on cookie.
You can see, level10_authorized=no;
change it to 'yes' and press ok.we have completed the 10th level

Hack This Site Basic 8

Sam remains confident that an obscured password file is still the best idea, but he screwed up with the calendar program.

She's talented for her age, but she knows nothing about security. She recently learned about saving files, and she wrote a script to demonstrate her ability. So, we know the password is stored in some obscured password file.  Lets try the same code as we did in level 7. But the code 'ls' is not treated as command. so lets try it differently. Try with aaa;<!--ls--> it also failed but got a message: If you are trying to use server side includes to solve the challenge, you are on the right track: but I have limited the commands allowed to ones relevant towards finding the password file for security reasons(because there will always be that one person who decides to

Hack This Site Basic 6

Network Security Sam has encrypted his password. The encryption system is publically available and can be accessed with this form: There we have been given with the same encryptor used by Sam .There is no other choice in my mind than guessing the password with the help of this encryptor. We have Sam's encrypted password already :3ff8;j<9 >Now we need to find by giving which value we get the output as 3. >when i given 'a' my output was 'a',which means no change. >So,I tried giving '3' and as expected, answer was 3. >So i pushed my luck and tried '3f',the first two letters,in encryptor ,Output was '3g'    this was clearly giving us hint.first letter has no change,second letter change by one alphabet or           letter ,clearly from 'abcdefg' >with this in mind iam giving input for encryption as '3ed',Huraaah!, it was successful and given output as '3ff'. >now its easy to break down ...
