Hello visitor!

If you’re interested in understanding how data flows through your network or need a tool for network diagnostics, creating a packet sniffer can be an exciting project. In this post, I’ll guide you through a Python-based packet sniffer that captures, decodes, and analyzes network packets. This project is perfect for anyone wanting to learn more about networking and Python’s ability to interact with low-level protocols. Project Overview The goal of this packet sniffer is to capture and analyze packets at the Ethernet frame level....

Hello everyone, After taking a break from the blog, I’m back and ready to dive into new content. During the time away, I focused on expanding my skillset—learning Go (Golang) and working on various projects while also navigating the job market. Now that I’m back, I plan to resume regular posts, while also sharing insights from the projects I’ve been working on. You can expect: Continued coverage of cybersecurity like over the wire and stuff like that Project highlights and technical breakdowns Thanks for your patience....

Task The password for the next level is stored in the file data.txt next to the word millionth. Login SSH: bandit7@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220 Password: morbNTDkSW6jIlUc0ymOdMaLnOlFVAaj Theory To solve this level and move on we just need to use one command, the grep command scan search Solution grep “millionth” data.txt millionth dfwvzFQi4mU0wfNbFOe9RoWskMLg7eEc

Task The password for the next level is stored somewhere on the server and has all of the following properties: owned by user bandit7 owned by group bandit6 33 bytes in size Login SSH: bandit6@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220 Password: HWasnPhtq9AVKe0dmk45nxy20cvUa6EG Theory The process to solve this task is pretty similar to the previous level, we just need the find command with some different attribute, -user [username] searches for files owned by a specific user and -group [groupname] searches for files owned by a specific group....

Task Find the only file that respect these requirements and read its content. The requirements are: human-readable 1033 bytes in size not executable Login SSH: bandit5@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220 Password: 4oQYVPkxZOOEOO5pTW81FB8j8lxXGUQw Theory To solve this task, we’ll use a combination of basic Linux commands to search for and identify the file with the specified properties. Let’s break down the key commands we’ll be using: find Command The find command in Linux is a powerful tool that allows users to search for files and directories based on various criteria....
