Show off your Linux skills in our latest challenge lab

In this lab we’ll test your Linux skills but other than that, you’ll find limited information available to guide you.

As a reminder, we reward the top performing community members in the following categories:

🥇 First to Finish
⏱️ Fastest to Complete
🎯 Most Accurate
💪 Most Persistent
🎁 Spot Prizes

In addition, at the end of the month, BethHolden will provide a walkthrough to guide you through the lab and share hints, tips and expert advice on how to approach similar labs in the future. We also encourage you to submit your own walkthrough guides to community@immersivelabs.com and we will feature any unique approaches in their own Community Walkthrough Guide.

You can read more about Season 1 of the Human Connection Challenge here. To be in with a chance of a prize you have until midnight on Sunday 23rd February 2025 to complete episode 4!

  • been busy the whole day, but in the end I was able to finish the lab. 
    Target 1 took me quite a while to find the right exploit and to execute it well :)
    Target 2 was in the beginning quite easy to gain initial access, but then I craweled into the world of LD_PRELOAD which helped me not at all :)
    and Target 3 was like.. wtf?! then I got a lucky shot and intial access was good and the path continued until success. 

    Thanks for the funny lab. Hope I don't have to wait too long for March :)
