OverTheWire Bandit Level 10 Walkthrough

Today we're doing a walkthrough for level 10 of the Bandit CTF wargame hosted at OverTheWire.org.  First, let's take a look at the level's objectives:

https://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/bandit11.html


The Flag is located in the data.txt file and is base64 encoded.

Next, let's login to the game server with SSH.  Remember to use the Flag from the previous level as the SSH password.

ssh bandit10@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220


Now to locate the data.txt file.

pwd
ls -a


In order to access the Flag string in the data.txt file, we'll need to decode it from base64 using the base64 command with the -d switch.

base64 -d data.txt


Summary

Bandit10 requires us to decode a string from base64 in a file to access the Flag.

Finish
