VulnHub hosts several virtual machines with security vulnerabilities. Cyber security enthusiasts can practice hacking with VulnHub. These machines usually contain “flags” which are secret pieces of information. Obtaining access to these flags indicate that an attacker has successfully gained access to the machine. Thus, these challenges are generally known as “Capture the Flag” or CTF in short. This category of posts contains write-ups on how to complete CTF challenges from VulnHub.
