OverTheWire-Level Directory
Previous Level: 4

Level 5 Fight!

In order to begin you will need to use PuTTY or preferably Linux and use the following information

If you are currently in a level type “logout”

Now type “ssh bandit5@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220”
Password:”koReBOKuIDDepwhWk7jZC0RTdopnAYKh”
We are now into level 5

For this level we are told

“The password for the next level is stored in a file somewhere under the inhere directory and has all of the following properties:
human-readable
1033 bytes in size
not executable”

If you have done this before you will know you can use

“ls “ to show files/folders

If we then “cd inhere”

To find the password we will need to find the correct file

“find . -type f -size 1033c ! -executable -exec file {} + | grep ASCII”

This will show “./maybeinhere07/.file2” as a suspect

Next we will

“cat maybehere07/.file2” to read the file

we will find the password

“DXjZPULLxYr17uwoI01bNLQbtFemEgo7”

Once again we can use
“ssh bandit6@bandit.labs.overthewire.org -p 2220”
and the password we just found to login to the next level

Next Level: 6
