NAME

Hack::Natas - solve some of the Natas server-side security war games

VERSION

version 0.003

DESCRIPTION

overthewire.org has a series of war games. Natas is the server-side security challenge.

This package contains some scripts to automate solving some of the tedious levels, and documents walking you through all levels up to #17.

This role provides the basic attributes and methods which are generally required for scripting password extraction.

METHODS

get

This sets the query string of the uri according to the key-value pairs passed in. Then, does an HTTP GET for that resource, and returns the response (a hashref).

run

The implementation of run must be provided by the consuming class.

Before run executes, turn on autoflush for STDOUT.

After run executes, print out the final password.

ATTRIBUTES

  • level - a read-only integer for the current level

  • http_user - the username to use to access the current level. By default, "natas${level}"

  • http_pass - the password to use to access the current level. Required.

  • uri - the URI for the current level. Can be coerced from a string. By default, this is constructed from the level, http_user, and http_pass.

  • ua - an HTTP::Tiny object. By default, the timeout is 5s, and the Host header is set.

  • password - the password we are extracting to access the next level.

  • password_length - the length of the password. This is built by the get_password_length method.
