Now while being logged in as the user bandit3, you need to find the password of user bandit4 in order to complete this level.

If you haven’t completed the previous level, do check out the write-up for Level 2 to Level 3, which is present here.

Follow these steps to proceed:

  • Use the ls command to list all the files in a directory
  • There is a hidden file that is present in the inhere directory
  • Use the command ls -la to list all the files, including the hidden ones
  • Run the cat command as: cat ./inhere/...Hiding-From-You
  • This will show you the password of the user bandit4. Note that down and proceed forward to the next level.

Password obtained at the time of writing this write-up: 2WmrDFRmJIq3IPxneAaMGhap0pFhF3NJ

Note

Passwords on each of the levels are known to change regularly after a specific interval of time. So instead of skimming through the write-up, it is recommended to solve the challenge by hand.
