Task 43 - Bonus Challenge - The True Ending

Find the root flag at /root/root.txt

the most interesting challenge of this whole room

just to check, i enumerated all the user-owned files using find, and for the user shiba2 there was this file named test1234 and other users couldn’t access it

sus file

on switching user and seeing the contents of the file, it seemed like it had the credentials of another user

this user nootnoot had superuser privs, so the flag was accessible now

yea root flag
