Hey im wanting to basicaly remove my whole server and turn it into a wargame type server

a wargame is absically a set of ppl trying to play a hacking game the first one to achieve this wins


basically i already have my goal is to login into level 2


this is the script that i have in place

int main(){
        long val=0x41414141;
        char buf[20];

        printf("Correct val's value from 0x41414141 -> 0xdeadbeef!\n");
        printf("Here is your chance: ");
        scanf("%24s",&buf);

        printf("buf: %s\n",buf);
        printf("val: 0x%08x\n",val);

        if(val==0xdeadbeef){
                seteuid(1002);
                system("/bin/sh");
        } else {
                printf("WAY OFF!!!!\n");
                exit(1);
        }

        return 0;
}

that script is from intruder.net im wanting to do something just like that

now if u notice the value is wanting u to get 0xdeadbeef but if u notice it says char buf=20 if we add like 21+ characters with ascii we can start a buffer overflow allowing us access to level 2


im goign to have 8 levels setup on this and i was wondering if any of the staff at eukhost would love to help me?

not only will this be fun but a learning set place for me and as well as you all


so what do you say?

Dear William,

It is not recommended to use VPS as a Game server as it requires much resources, you should go for a dedicated server if you want to host a wargame application. Right now you are having L-VPS-01 VPS package which is not sufficient to host any gaming application.

Still, if you are sure about the resource requirement of the application then you can definitely host it on your VPS. Regarding the installation and the setup of the wargame application, if any third party / ready made setup or procedure is available then get back to us, we will definitely try to install it for you. We don't supports for scripting issues if you are going to host a script for gaming applications, you have to check this with your game developer.

The information you have provided in this thread regarding the gaming application is not sufficient. We would love to learn new things, if you will provide us the complete procedure or the installation instructions with the resource requirements then we will try to install it for you.

Hello there this wargame is not a application at alll

its a bunch of vulnerabilites that are found inside the server and the gamer person find it something like that

[GalaxyMan]

So basically you purposely make your VPS vulnerable so that people can hack it as part of game?

Sounds interesting, however, I'm sure that it's quite risky as while it sounds like you won't be using the VPS for more than just the game, would the hacker not be able to abuse the VPS once they have access to it and utilize it for something that's not part of the game (ie. attacking another website)? Or are the vulnerabilities only small things that can't actually grant the person full access? I'm actually quite curious about this...

Well this will all be password cracking basically buffer overflow hers and there and some small root explotis that u can easily block them from using root commands once they got it but now that u mention it

it wouldnt be a good idea to do it on a vps due to the vps node

i didnt htink of that
