Left Behind

EasyLinux lab

A Linux machine boots in your browser; you land as player. There's no root to win here — just careless housekeeping.

Someone left backups lying around. Find what's world-readable, open the archive, and recover the secret inside. That secret is your flag.

The VM has no network and can't touch anything outside your browser tab.

This challenge has a lab

The lab runs entirely in your browser and contains your own personal flag.
