Bandit.Lvl26 – not /bin/bash

This is the blog post series related to Bandit Wargame from OverTheWire community. It is my attempt to challenge myself and play some Wargames as suggested by CTF Field Guide.

Previous challenge – Lvl25 – brute-forcing

Goal

“Logging in to bandit26 from bandit25 should be fairly easy… The shell for user bandit26 is not /bin/bash, but something else. Find out what it is, how it works and how to break out of it.“

Reference: https://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/bandit26.html

PowerShell Modules Used

• Posh-SSH
• WindowsCompatibility

Key Linux command(s)

• This level requires interactive access to manipulate shells… I was not able to do it via PowerShell…

Next level – Lvl27 – grab the password

Thanks a lot for reading.
