Hello everyone, I'm stuck in Q2 of Return to Haunted Hollow (escalate to root). Does anyone have any hint about what binary or service can be exploited to elevate privileges? Kind regards,
Nano worked for me. Ensure you've escaped the initial rbash and you should be good to elevate.
nano /opt/security-sweep:)

Bronze II found the process in cron and the file it executes,
But I can't find a way to edit this file, the command for the echo command the operators > and >> are blocked and there is no tool for editing text files (vi, vim, namo, etc.).

Just a hint for those who stuck in escaping the rbash, take a look in other shell types that exist. This lab is easier than it seems 😄

FelipeSTCyberSharpeThanks for the tip, but I still can't get out of RBASH, I tried to escape from Rbash via SSH but I still can't. Can you tell me if the correct way is via SSH?
