Trick or Treat on Specter Street: Widow's Web

You've blocked too much. e.g. the posts (mistyped url in your list btw) should be allowed.

if you're completely stuck try this script :)

cd ~/Desktop
# get all URLS
malicious-crawler
legitimate-crawler

# give em some time
sleep 5
 
#fetch entries from legitimate crawlers :)
mkdir archive
URLS=`cat Lab-Files/legitimate-crawler.txt   | awk '{print $4}' | grep http`
for URL in $URLS; do
 let i=i+1
 curl $URL > archive/$i
done
 
#get bold links from website content (later URLs)
grep -ohP  '(?<=<i>).*?(?=</i>)' archive/* > /tmp/spidered
#remove old stuff
rm archive/*


#compile some stuff we've found
cat Lab-Files/spider-sightings.log | awk '{print $7}' | sed 's/^\///g' >> /tmp/spidered
cat /tmp/spidered | sort | uniq | egrep -v "^$|blog.*|about|contact" > /tmp/uniqlist


# now check for valid URLs
true > /tmp/valid-urls
LIST=`cat /tmp/uniqlist`
for L in $LIST; do 
	if curl -o /dev/null -s --head --fail http://127.0.0.1:3000/$L; then
    	echo $L >> /tmp/valid-urls
	fi
done


#final disallow list :)
echo "User-agent: *" >  Website-Files/robots.txt
cat /tmp/valid-urls | awk '{print "Disallow:/"$1'} >> Website-Files/robots.txt

#now run the crawlers and get the token
malicious-crawler
legitimate-crawler

# give em some time :)
sleep 5

grep token Lab-Files/*

I don't think it tells you to disallow the blog posts themselves.

You only need to disallow the "hidden paths"

You might want to look through the pages again and really think some of those paths through... Might be an order to what you're given that you need to check

Hi all. Did anyone managed to solve Q4: Inspect the output in Lab-Files. What is the token?

Checked all the output txt files in Lab-Files folder but could not find anything. Any hints?
