To save time and make my very limited spare time more efficiently, I decided to give up privilege escalation part while cracking a CTF machine.

In America or Canada, it is upset enough to hear people saying “if you don’t speak English, get out of here.” But what’s more upset is to hear westerner travelers in Asian cities saying “people don’t speak English here, not convenient at all, traveling is difficult, don’t come here.” Seriously, what were you thinking? Going to a foreign countries and expect people to speak your language? Come on bro, do better.

The HTB Medium machine Runner, is the hell weirdest machine I’ve ever played. Who the f*&k would know the answer to the root.txt is turn after turn after turn after turn and after turn. Never ever do any virtual machine that is rated below 4.5, not worth it.

Doing the HTB Runner machine, after spending quite some time and finally I get the initial foothold, guess what? It’s a docker container!

I will not trust “sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade” combo any more, that always kill my Kali at VMWare Workstation Pro.

For those thinking yourselves not doing well in your life, look at the Ubisoft, they got about 20k people, yet they still suck. So don’t be too harsh to yourself. One good thing you did that will beat about billions of people is that at least you didn’t damage the society.

From Aug 21 to today, I’ve spent like 70 hours playing Black Myth Wukong. This is the probably the first game I tried to beat in last couple years. While playing it, I felt terrible that I was spending my time on game. There is still so much I haven’t learned, but I also know I got to find way to relex. So my question is what game should I play next? Elden Ring, or Warhammer 40k? Or, open up the API Hacking Tutorial I saved a month ago, this is probably a better choice.

After a long day and a long week of working hours, I decided to reward myself with a HTB machine. It’s only an easy difficulty machine, so I thought I may have enough time do it before dinner. Only after 30 minutes I realized that this machine is in my blind spot, there is something new to me that I need to learn first. This thing called “API HACKING”.

Another tough weekend, my mind wants to do so many things, readings, cracking some CTF machines, write some hacking tricks, doing some house works and others; However, my body says no, I am too tired. I remember I tried to crack an old easy CTF machine, and yet couldn’t continue due to fatigue. In the end I tried to do everything and achieved a minor progress on everything in the end. This is exactly like what my colleague said, “Lack of time is an adult’s problem.”

I feel absolutely terrible to spend a whole day to crack an easy vuln box on HTB. Wish I know more about Ruby’s ERB engine template command injection and how the ruby’s regex works.

I actually feel bad to answer “nginx” while asked what language is the web server using, seriously, what was I thinking?
