Although I didn’t make the cut to qualify for the role (600+ people applied - talk about brutal lol), I was able to find all 6 flags for their CTF. In this blog post, I will go through challenge 5 from their website. The challenge starts with a link to challenge5. https://blog.cyberloki.dev/posts/extract-htb-badges-information/ Tue, 27 May 2025 00:00:00 +0000 https://blog.cyberloki.dev/posts/extract-htb-badges-information/ Background Link to heading So, someone told me that it was a good idea to showcase all my efforts on LinkedIn. Now, I don’t really mind doing that, but if I started showcasing all my HTB badges, it would have taken too much manual work.

I’ve been trying to get to a point in my career where I’m able to audit source code and find issues in software projects not written by me. In fact, this is my “short” term goal for the next 5 years. Of course, you don’t need to read the source to be able to find bugs, there are other ways.
