Previous Level Guide: Century Level 1 → 2

Access

SSH: ssh century2@century.underthewire.tech -p 22

Password: 10.0.14393.7604

Info

The password for Century3 is the name of the built-in cmdlet that performs the wget like function within PowerShell PLUS the name of the file on the desktop.

NOTE:
– If the name of the cmdlet is “get-web” and the file on the desktop is named “1234”, the password would be “get-web1234”.
– The password will be lowercase no matter how it appears on the screen.

Theory

To get the password, it's just a command that researching right now and a number which just happens to be the name of the only file in the shell. So the command that resembles linux's wget command is Invoke-Webrequest, which is mainly used to download files. Now we only need to use dir to see the name of the file:

Invoke-Webrequest
dir

Solution

Now that we know the command is Invoke-Webrequest, we'll just use dir for this:

PS C:\users\century2\desktop> dir

    Directory: C:\users\century2\desktop


Mode                LastWriteTime         Length Name
----                -------------         ------ ----
-a----        8/30/2018   3:29 AM            693 443

So if we join the command in lowercase as it says in the task with the numbers of the file we get this as our password:

invoke-webrequest443

And that's the password! Now we should be good to go to the next level.
