Parrot CTFs Events: #1 Cyber Security Education & Upskilling Labs

Archive Hunter

ArchiveHunter is a high-energy sandbox where zip files become grappling hooks. Upload, slip, shell, and rewrite history, then drop the mic with root access.

Logger

Logger is a medium-difficulty Linux CTF challenge that revolves around a misconfigured internal log management system. Participants begin by authenticating to a web interface, where they must identify and exploit a Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerability.

Ivanti

A routine system in a secure environment hides more than it reveals.Can you navigate through layers of misconfiguration and uncover the quietly exposed doors? Every request counts especially the ones you???re not meant to make.

PwnDoc

PwnDoc is an easy-level Linux machine that focuses on web exploitation techniques and Docker-based privilege escalation.

Erebus

Step into the shadows of a forgotten helpdesk where routine maintenance hides deeper secrets. What begins as a simple misconfiguration unravels into something far more deceptive. Are you paying close enough attention?

Sense

A system built to serve??? yet something whispers beneath its surface. Can you hear what others ignore ?

Staging

Staging is a medium-difficulty Linux CTF where you brute-force hidden vhosts, spin up a remote database to configure an uninitialized WordPress, then exploit misconfigurations for initial access. From there, you reuse credentials and abuse sudo misconfigs to gain root. It mimics real-world staging pitfalls in poorly managed environments.

Graph

Harness the hidden Thread Weaving Protocol in Graph???s Gremlin engine: hijack traversal streams, override Java scheduler tokens, and slip past concurrency guards. Only those who master dynamic graph flows will unearth the buried flags.

Each challenge reshapes the analytics pipeline in real time only the sharpest operators will bend the MCP to their will and emerge unflagged.

Rejetto

A classic file-sharing service hums along, offering simple access to a few public resources. It looks stable, even nostalgic, perhaps a relic from another era. But age often brings oversight. Explore its behavior, peek into its features, and you might just find something that wasn???t meant to be shared

Chad

Zorlang

Zorlang is a Linux-based CTF machine designed to challenge a player???s skills in exploiting modern vulnerabilities and navigating post-exploitation scenarios. Players must gain an initial foothold by targeting an exposed service and then proceed to enumerate internal services to pivot deeper into the network. Success requires effective use of SSH tunneling techniques and a final privilege escalation through a misconfigured or vulnerable internal component, ultimately leading to full system compromise.
