Super SSH writeup - Pico CTF ( General skills )

Description : Using a Secure Shell (SSH) is going to be pretty important. Additional details will be available after launching your challenge instance.

Solution -

Step 1: Launch the instance - Once you begin the challenge, additional information becomes available, including the necessary SSH details:

  • Username
  • Host address (IP)
  • Port number
  • Password

These details are required to establish an SSH connection with the remote server. Take note of them as they will be used in the next step.

Step 2: Construct the command - Using the provided SSH information, we now need to construct the SSH command to initiate a secure connection to the host.

Code bash
ssh username@host -p port

Example:
Code bash
ssh ctf-player@picoctf.net -p 60601

Once connected, the server immediately displays the flag in the terminal before closing the connection. Make sure to note down the flag.
