Incident Storyline

We have good news and bad news! The good news is that we are about to hit 3 million users on our platform, and the bad news is;

Well, last night, the UnderGround (UG) Hackers attacked our website, hackme.thm, and took complete control. They were able to turn off the signup page, so there won't be any new registrations. Given this, our user count is stuck at 2.99 Million.

Can you help us restore the registration panel on our site to reach our 3 million user milestone?

Room Objectives

To assist the HackM3.thm company in fixing the application, you need to:

  • Explore the web server and find the attack vectors leveraged by the attacker.
  • Regain access and restore the signup functionality for the new users.
  • Investigate the web application logs and track down the root cause.

Lab Connection

Before moving forward, start the lab by clicking the Start Machine button. It will take 3-5 minutes to load properly. 

We can't wait to get our site restored and resume our 3M celebrations!

Good luck!
