    Talking Not-so-usual challenges

    Completion of various challenges require experience in web security. SQL injection, apache, exploiting PHP, etc.

    Level 1. Make a nasa.gov URL display a text of my choice
    Level 4. IP address is 72.14.207.99. What is geek that points to it?
    Level 6. Let's see you do some easy SQL ninjitsu
    Level 7. snifflog.txt - ngrep format
    Level 13. PHP with source - needs exploiting and/or o-o-t-b thinking
    Level 15. download.com's uptime

    cross - Are you talking about the levels that start immediately when you enter the page, or the ones listed after you click the challenges link?

    I haven't had a lot of time to play this morning, but I've been able to make it through all 5 warm up challenges. I'll register later and see how far I can make it on those.

    LOL! *BONK* The Wolfman will try to be vague as to not spoil it for others. I didn't add the two together.

    Thanks Phish!

    I just started doing the actual challenges. The first one had me stumped for a while, but I got it. It took me about 30 minutes though... I was on the wrong trail and then I finally changed my approach and got it. I'm going to put the second one off for tomorrow. I don't think that one is really going to be that hard...

    I'm really not that good with web security either. Guess it's time to brush up a bit.
