Bandit 5
I’m so happy to have some hints, to go off of and have to figure it out now. We’re starting to get to some good stuff now.
Challenge
The password for the next level is stored in a file somewhere under the inhere directory and has all of the following properties:
- human-readable
- 1033 bytes in size
- not executable
Notes
So right off the bat, I know we need to look at the find command’s switches. I’m positive we can look based on size. Let’s head over to ss64 - FIND command
