Bandit level 3

Level Goal

The password for the next level is stored in a hidden file in the inhere directory.

This level I personally consider to be easier than both level 1 and 2. Here we need to find a hidden file in in the inhere subdirectory of our current working directory

Useful commands to solve this level:

  • cd
  • ls - with options/flags
  • cat

Solution - Spoiler Alert!

As i have a habit to list all files, including hidden files when i lurk around in an unknown directory. I have already used the command needed to solve this task in previous levels. Using ls -la inhere/ we can list all files. using the -la flags we can "List All" in a nice ordered list.

From here we can get the filename and cat it out using cat inhere/...Hiding-From-You
