Read these guidelines before the event. Participation implies acceptance of all rules.
Challenge Rules
Learning notes are always shown
Whether your answer is right or wrong, a learning note will appear explaining the concept. The goal of this challenge is learning — not just winning.
Web search and AI are allowed
Searching the web or asking an AI to help find an answer is fine. Do not use scripts for full automation, brute-forcing, or anything that could bring the system down.
Report bugs and issues
Because this challenge is about learning, you may run into a typo, a broken step, or a security bug introduced during development. Please report anything you find.
Do not target production systems
All challenge commands and techniques must be directed only at the designated challenge environment (ctf.pikapack.ai). Never run challenge-related commands, tools, or exploits against any company production service, internal network, or live system.
