Gain access to the admin panel

Difficulty: Hard

UnicornBox has a special panel for administrators. Your task is to log into the admin panel.

Password authentication for the admin panel is handled separately from the database. However, the administrator does use UnicornBox for day-to-day file storage, so they may also have a normal user account.

Your task: Gain access to the admin panel.

Tips

  • The administrator logs in differently than other users. In order to log in as the administrator, you’ll need to log in using their specific log in page!

  • Neither nicholas nor shomil are administrators of the site. Your first step might be to figure out the username of the administrator.

  • Consider human factors. Many people reuse passwords.

  • We recommend completing Flag 3 before trying this flag.

  • Feel free to use Google for this question.
