Tonight the wargame will kick off!
Below I will once more explain what this wargame is about and what it isnt about. I will again explain the rules and hope that you'll be able to understand them and have fun this week while trying to exploit the vulnerability ive setup.
The Game
The game as you probably already know is a game of the "Capture The Flag" style. First team to get it wins.
For this game I have setup a user account with 2 files in its home directory (/home/wargame/password and /home/wargame/program). Your team will need to exploit /home/wargame/program in order to read /home/wargame/password. To accomplish this /home/wargame/program is chmodded so on succesfull exploitation it will grant you a shell wich will allow you to read out /home/wargame/password.
After your team has exploited the program and thus wins the game your team should make a forum post explaining exactly how you did it, showing your exploit with explanation etc etc etc.
Each team will have a seperate user account on my system wich they can use to exploit the program. Login details will be email'd to each group leader/member of who'm I have the email adresses so please send me a pm with your team name/email to where I should send the details.
Furthermore I wont give out information on the vulnerable program, your on your own. I'm sure if your able to exploit this you dont need that information anyway's.

Info for the winning team
As winning team we from dynamichell ask you to post an explanation of how you did it. We do this so that all of the people here at dynamichell can learn from it.
Enyoy the game and play nice!
Another little note is that this is the first wargame we organise. As a result of this there might be problems with the system/vuln/settings wich I havnt forseen. If you encounter this dont be afraid to msg me ore Dr4g either here ore on IRC.
