This flag has really beaten me up. I feel like i have tried everything i can from the course material. Every time i make any progress on it, the chain is not complete. I feel problems of this caliber is not covered by the course.
I have a full time job and cant take time off so im just trying to understand a little bit more about the exam format and how i should strategise so i dont waste time.
as the title said, i just made an account, did the opening module and started this. the user guide showed there should a button called "connect to HTB" to start ctf. but i dont see it. i even tried disabling the adblocker, but no luck
Just published my walkthrough for the Media machine on HTB. It's a Windows box that covers some really interesting techniques:
Arbitrary file write via NTFS Junction to achieve RCE
Recovering stripped privileges on a service account using FullPowers
Escalating to SYSTEM via GodPotato (SeImpersonatePrivilege abuse)
The writeup is beginner-friendly with explanations of why each technique works, not just how. I also noted which parts are covered in the CPTS path and which go beyond it.

Any1 else having a problem with targets not spawning on EU server ?
I’m new to HackTheBox, but I already have a few years of professional experience in Data Security.
I’d like to move toward AI Security and have been working through the AI Red Teamer path for the past few weeks.
Now that the certification has been released, I’m wondering how these certifications are structured. The exam duration is 7 days—what kind of workload should I expect? Around 3–4 hours per day, or significantly more?
And what does the final report look like? Do you get a template, or do you have to build it from scratch?
Thanks in advance!
