 All right. Hey, what's up everybody? My name is John Hammond. Welcome back to another video of mine and this time I want to be showcasing some simple and small challenges and solutions for the echo party CTF eco party CTF It's currently going on right now Wednesday, October 26th through Friday, October 28th Currently, it's Thursday And you can find this on CTF time.org take a look at the CTF. I Really like it so far. I haven't solved a whole lot of challenges In fact, not many at all But it is still a bunch of fun so trees trees trees That's that trees too So I want to show off initially the uh web 25 challenge super simple super easy. Like I said, I don't really have a whole lot Uh, particularly solved Hopefully this will increase by the time the competition is over But I am more excited to see some of the write-ups and see how people have solved other other things So the web 25 challenge has had a bunch of people solve it because honestly, it's not that hard at all um, the title of the challenge is Mr. Robot and The the prompt is disallow it so this robot and disallow are all hints and references to the common robots.txt file Which if you haven't heard of before you can take a look at do some research on typically, um, A website will have a robots.txt file Which will limit what web crawlers or bots like google or other spiders for search end and stuff like that when they try to Index or cache your web page. Wow your website and your web page. I had a weird accent there because I was trying to mix those two words um This file robots.txt can determine. Hey, don't try and index or don't try and cache These pages I want to leave them alone. I want to disallow you as the bot to be able to see them But it is still like completely visible like, you know Like publicly accessible and visible file So you can on any web page go to the url and robots.txt and you can see what they're trying to disallow What they're trying to hide from different kinds of bots Or uh, webpage checkers. So it looks like it's hiding this this file the static Whatever this dot text file is so we can go to that location In again the website and hey, we got our flag super easy echo robot is following us. So again Very very simple challenge, but I want to showcase it and uh in case you haven't heard of it Robots.txt file is a common a very very common like beginning beginner and basic, uh ctf challenge And exercise So yeah, you could totally if you wanted to submit that and get your points for it I have already submitted it and gotten the the super small super simple 25 points, but Still a nice challenge And uh, I'll showcase it and some others in the coming videos. Thanks again guys
